Beauty and the beast
This proved a lot harder than I had imagined! Loads of ideas , but making Lumiere was quite tricky.....gluing all those jewellery findings, baking in parts.......Never again!
The castle was easy as I had already made this for cinderella and not included it in the final piece.
Had to include 'The grey stuff' here , though not as 'delicious' looking as the real thing!

Garden hutch
Because I keep hens, and not actually very good at sculpting animals! I decided to have a go at making a white hen. This is similar to one I own. I had ordered a job lot of doll's house furniture from e bay and this little wooden cooker was in amongst the rest of the useful cabinets. I had thought of discarding it . Instead I left it on my work desk for a few days until an idea came to me! I removed the door(as I often do with my cupboards, since a few are made cheaply and fall off naturally anyway!) I thought the rings on the stove would be perfect to rest plant pots on, and just knew I had to put my hen in the bottom!
Nature museum cupboard
I wanted to do something a bit special with the cabinet I found in a charity shop. I toyed with the idea of a wizard's cupboard, but there are so many out there. I looked at the little cubby hole type shelves and it reminded me of the Natural History Museum I used to go to as a child.....all those creepy jars and masks!
Blogging again!
I am so excited to be blogging again! I am trying to find my way around and realise some of the links no longer work, so please be patient with me on this! So much has happened over the last few years. I have moved house and now have a successful Etsy shop where I am not only miniature making but making wands, spirit dolls and magic spells!
