I was cutting out some fancy squares for my cookie decorating class when I noticed that the scraps made really pretty shapes. So, I used the edges of the fancy square to cut out my ornaments.

I used a round decorating tip number 8 to cut a hole at the top of the cookies before they went into the oven.

Once the cookies were baked and cooled, I used the wet on wet technique to decorate them with flood consistency royal icing and a tip 2. You can see an example of the wet on wet technique here and you can see the filigree technique here.

  1. This is just what I was needing...the ornament cutters that I have aren't big enough to decorate the way I'd like! ❤️❤️❤️?

  2. Wow! So beautiful! It's neat how you saw the idea from 'scraps' of dough. I love the vintage look of these ornaments.

  3. Your cookies are absolutely beautiful! In fact, they are beyond beautiful. Your talent and creativity amaze me. Thank you for sharing the pictures.
