Garlic Bread

Maru is making garlic bread today!

Yum yum!

Dolls

 

I put Blair back in her box and Maru is not happy about it.

Fruits and Desserts

I finally made some progress on the "other" side of the shop. I made a veggie/fruit stall and displayed chocolate and pasta on the top shelves.

 I also added some vintage posters to the walls.

I still need to make cannolis and add a cash register...but who knows when I'll get to that!

View from the top.

Donuts

I finally got my lazy self to make donuts in all scales for this photo shoot- but looks like Maru isn't too happy!

1:3, 1:6 and 1:12

I also decided to change my bakery shop into a donut shop- I will post more photos of the very empty shop later in the week.

Also, today is the last day to enter my giveaway! I will announce the winner tomorrow :)

Balloon Animals

I've been making a lot of non-food minis lately, and it's because I ran out of foods to make. I am always asking the hubs for ideas and I think it drives him crazy! Anywho, I wanted to make Maru a toy, so I made her a Jeff Koons inspired (he was probably inspired by the actual balloon) poodle balloon.

The ones behind the poodles are giraffes. Making them was trickier than I expected, but I somehow managed to find the perfect amount of liquid clay so the neck/head doesn't plop. *These are made from polymer clay.

Enjoy your weekend!

Flower Cakes for the Weekend

Have you ever tried edible flowers? I tried it when I was in kindergarten and I remember making sure with my teacher that I wasn't going to die by eating flowers :)

The baby blue reminds me of the marie antoinette movie- remember the baby blue converse?

Also made one in pink!

And a group shot with Maru.

Have a sweet weekend!

Veggies

Maru's weekday job selling vegetables...

I got a veggie crate request in quarter scale. My eyes almost became cross-eyed by the time I finished, but I love how it's sooooo small! Oh, and all the veggies were loose, so me being me, I of course had to drop it on the floor (which is carpet) and had to do a massive search for 20 minutes.

I also made a garlic braid which is very fun to make!

Doll treats

Maruchan takes a bite out of one of Melissa's donuts

poses with some treats made for other dolls

I made a new fruit board assortment with a bigger hand of bananas and added a mango and green apple.

Halloween

Now that Independence day has come and gone, I am looking forward to Halloween!

Halloween cupcakes- my favorite is the RIP one

Jacks are all looking at Maru-chan

Dessert Table finished!

Finally got my lazy bum to finish this last night!

Ta-da!

I couldn't find my spoon, so I used my hand.

yogurt pretzel, cupcake, rock candy, macaron, chocolate dipped pretzel sticks, cake, cake pops

whoopie pies, gumballs, and oranges

I love this demanding girl! She's so crazy!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Cupcake Tower

I am joining with Carol (true2scale) to win Cupcake Wars! just kidding :) But we are trying to make the best cupcake towers in minis~

My cupcakes on Carol's amazing tower. Visit her at http://true2scale.blogspot.com/

And the giant had to steal the spotlight....Maru chan is sad that the cupcakes tipped over...lol!

No worries, more towers to come!

Pasta Machine and Clay

I finally got a pasta machine (no more bulging right bicep!) since I have been getting orders for 1:3 scale. I felt like I was making food for Gulliver ... no, Paul Bunyan.

My little helpers~ they do all the clay mixing~ (yeah right, I wish!)

I also tidied/color coordinated my clay box  (which is now a mess).

Whoopie Pies

Maru-chan: "Do you want a banany?"

Blair: "Uh..."

Maru-chan: "Okay, I give you whoopie pie"

Blair: "Deal"

I need to get Maruchan some new clothes. I personally want her to wear a cute long sleeve shirt with leggings to hide her ball joints.

Maru-chan

meet my new baby Maru-chan

"Get me outta here!"

She's stuck in the picnic basket...we'll see how she escapes.
