Exciting Home Decor Uses for a Cake Decorating Set

You know me by now. I LOVE plaster. I LOVE decorating with plaster and I love finding new, exciting ways to apply it.

I have found that my kitchen junk drawer held one of the most exciting plaster tools imaginable! My cake decorating set!

Instead of using the set with frosting, simply fill the decorating bag or press container with common joint compound and have a blast!

*Create scroll work on your walls then attach plaster leaves from one of our plaster leaf molds!

*Add further detail to Raised Plaster Stencil designs

*Add more dimension to Raised Plaster Stones or bricks.

I just developed a new Raised Plaster Stone Tile design (available soon) and started playing with the decorating tip and tinted joint compound. What a kick in the pants!

I first applied tinted compound to the stencil and let it dry.

I then mixed two colors of craft paint with joint compound and filled my cake decorating press container with the mixture.

I then started adding further raise and dimension to the plaster stone work. This is certainly the fun part and you can get just as crazy as you want to!

By tinting the joint compound, you never have to worry if an accidental chip takes place because the color runs through out the stone.

The result was cool! Now I'll let it dry most of the way then do just a bit of a "knock down" with my plastic scraper.

The great thing is that with this technique, an original back splash or wall design with stone tiles becomes an easy project!

Be sure to seal with clear, non-yellowing polyurethane to protect.

Remember that this easy technique can be done to any of our stone or brick designs, to add veining on leaf designs or to create raises around the edges of many designs. Let your imagination take you to a whole new level of Raised Plaster Stenciling!
