A friend of mine is leaving, and I just wanted to give her something to remember me by. Since she knows I am crazy about miniatures and clay, I made a desserts display just for her. It’s got cupcakes, log cakes, french macarons, and wrapped candy boxes! I hope that every time she sees it, she smiles a bit and remembers me.
I don’t call this blog tinier crafts for nothing! =) I really love working with small things, and polymer clay helps me express my secret desire to be a miniature artist. I recycled an empty matchbox and wrapped it with scraps of fabric and an old paper doily to make the tray of this tea set. I used the inside of the matchbox to store mini sticky paper so that I can pepper my office with useful art. I wish I could show you the close up shots of the cookies because they really look yummy, but the Internet has been failing me. Happy crafting Wednesday!
I just realized that almost a month has gone by and I haven’t posted anything new! I don’t have any new stories or poems yet because I really do want to devote most of my time to finishing my novel. I say most because I still do crafts when I need a breather. Here was one that I did using a very old and dusty ref magnet. With a little clay, and a bit of imagination, I was able to make this little kitchen set. In my mind, I’ve made the ref magnet happy because I spruced it up and gave it a new home.
