1:12 scale miniature peonies

I'm around...

Well actually I have been back for a week, but have been terribly busy that I don't have much time for anything else. I have some news to share the next time.

But first...

I have been intrigued by peonies for a long time...and I'm not the first one who have tried making them in miniature scale. I am intrigued by their fat rounded shape, and especially when they are not so ready to be in full bloom yet....you know what I mean? So in the peonies I make, I really like making them in that state :)

I am a little strange, I know.

I like this colour, a little soft peach, but currently am going to try making them in various colours. It's going to be interesting!!

  2. So beautiful! Our hot pink peonies have been in full bloom here and they are gorgeous! We have a friend who goes out to her garden and puts an umbrella over them when a thunder storm hits as otherwise, they are shattered into a million petals!

  3. These are lovely...just lovely! The pitcher is perfect for them. Peonies are pretty--so many beautiful colors. My grandmother always had bright pink ones next to her house, and I always admired them. Thanks for sharing with us.; )
