Show and Tell Monday ~ 1:12 Miniature Cupcakes and Calla Lilly

It's Monday again! I had a very good weekend. On Saturday after housework and creating some miniatures, I saw there was really good sunlight! What a great opportunity to take some photos of my next batch of 1:12 miniature cupcakes. This batch will be sent to Carrie early this week.


In the afternoon, I went downtown to a bookshop and browse through some craft books. I needed new inspiration for flowers. I browse through dessert books, as well as clay books. I bought a craft book :)

On Sunday, after another round of housework, I had time to experiment on new flowers. The book I bought yesterday was on making Clay flowers. They were not meant for miniature scale, but I just needed the technique, then I'll have to modify and see what I can do for 1:12 dollhouse miniature scale.

For a start, I made some Classic White Calla Lilies.

I intend to experiment making some other flowers whenever I can.
