April Showers bring May Flowers......so now you know my agenda for this spring.
I love a rainy day.......it's a snuggly, read-a-book kind-of-day. And the sound of rain falling is so calming and soothing. It seems perfect to celebrate all those spring showers in a cookie set.
April showers require umbrellas......unless you want to get wet.
The problem with the typical umbrella shape is the long handle that can easily get broken off if it is a cookie. Solution?.....leave the handle off. haha
To cut a handle-less umbrella, use an oval cutter and SweetSugarbelle's scalloped edger found in the Shape Shifters set. (see photo below)
Bake and cool the cookies.
Start decorating by outlining and flooding every other segment of the umbrella with one color of glaze. (see photo below)
Allow the first run to dry for about 30 minutes, and then fill in the empty segments.
(see photo below)
If desired, add an accent line to each segment after the entire cookie has dried for at least 30 minutes.
