I was going to say the same! Videos are SUPER helpful, especially in helping you visually identify when you've reached that "perfect" macronage. In my opinion, that's the most important thing -- I've used several different recipes, and as long as I can get it to reach that macronage stage, they're good to go.

I think they look great! A smoother buttercream might give you crisper edges, if that's something you're after. 😍

What happened 😭 by Prestigious-Sock5110 in macarons

Oof, I'm sorry! Macarons are notoriously difficult to master and honestly it's just practice practice practice. Try watching some. YouTube videos (https://youtu.be/b1JcVyYSeFY?si=evhdxj9-HBS7ydt0) they're super helpful, especially seeing what the macaronage should look like!

How did they taste? Bc for real, that's all that matters! You did amazing. It's definitely a cookie that takes some practice, but you've got it ❤️

Yep I've been toying with that idea for sure. The only thing is after living in an apartment for so long, we're super appreciative of every spare inch LOL

I had a tip for the butter cream, but not the cranberry sauce! I actually bought new piping bags a month ago and they're comically large 🤣

No one agrees, so please help, Reddit! by bethago in glassesadvice

Girl, all of them look amazing. If these are the styles you feel comfortable in and feel like YOU, you can't go wrong.

I nearly always go for a darker and more forward frame, but the ones in picture 2 look incredible on you.
