Wooden Crates

I've been making some wooden crates for the fruit section of my Italian store. (This project is never-ending!) I think I've made enough to make a new fruit stall.

It's snowing here in the east coast! I just hope we get to enjoy spring before it gets hot!

Easter Basket

I made some Easter candy baskets for Saige.

The grass smells like candy so it definitely SMELLS like Easter too!

Easter minis and Baguettes

I've been working on a special order for Easter goodies. The colorful mini on the bottom left are piles of jelly beans (just in case you were wondering!).

 

Easter cupcakes

 

I also have a cheese board order and this is what I have so far.

I also made a 1:3 scale Italian Easter bread prep scene for a special customer.

Nom nom nom!

It's snowing again! I think it was a little too early to bring out the Easter goodies...so I bring you some cookie monster cupcakes. I hear he has become the veggie monster since it's a healthier option.

Snow Day!

Saige is enjoying her snow day with some snacks and candies!

Hobbit Pantry Update

I've added more foods and pots to the pantry. I still need to make the back shelves and the circular entrance.

I recently purchased a meat hanger on ebay, so hopefully I will get that set up this week!

The commissioner of this project (my husband) is not too impressed with the progress, but hopefully I will finish it before the next Hobbit movie :-)

Girl Scout Cookie Hair Bow

Look at what Brittany did with the girl scout cookies! So cute!! Only if I was a little younger...

Almost Mini

I made some almost life-size thin mints and samoas (1 1/2" in diameter) for a custom order. This was my first not-so-miniature work and I am just grateful to be making miniatures. I think 1:3 scale will be my limit for now. Luckily they look real enough since my husband was about to take a bite-sorry!

I also saw some s'mores kisses cookies on pinterest and decided to make them in 1:3 scale.

Banoffee pie and Apple pie in 1:3 scale

NY cheesecake in 1:3 scale

 

My dolls are greedy and a sliver of cheesecake will not cut it- that explains the huge slice :-)

Chocolate Covered Strawberries

My favorite Godiva chocolate treat in mini!

And a smaller version for a custom order.

Almost half inch scale.

I'm getting ready for Valentine's with some heart shaped desserts!

Happy Holidays!



Balloons and Honeydukes

I've been getting a lot of balloon animal orders this past week. Here are some photos:

poodles and giraffes

I also finished my honeydukes tray set that I started making in 2011. Not bad!

Girl Scout Cookie Cupcakes

I made some girl scout cookie cupcakes with my leftover cookies.
