Mad Hatter


Another fun one to make!  I got to use purple and gold luster dust all over this!  The effect was fantastic and the pictures don't do it justice. 

A daughter of a friend of mine loves the new Alice in Wonderland with Johnny Depp. So this was my take on his hat.  I had not seen the movie, so the hat looked quite dark and purple to me, however, I was told later that it was more of a deep burgundy. So I'll have to see the movie now!

Anyway, it was fun.  I covered it in white fondant, then brushed black paint on it.  Then spotted the luster dust all over.  The peacock feather, hat pins and little note were all made from gum paste.
