French Madeleines Food Earrings

Thanks to all who have left me comments in my last post with regards to my foot injury :) Thanks so much for the concern. Today, my feet was feeling so much better and I can take some decent photos. During the past 2 days, the swell continued in the afternoon and through the evening/night which hindered my productivity. I applied some chinese medicated plaster for 2 nights now, and thankfully I don't feel the swelling that bad today, and so I can move around a little more.

I made these into food earrings yesterday and because I was feeling more better today, I manage to take photos and here it is.

French madeleines earrings

I feel like I'm only getting started, because I still have a few other ideas for french madeleines as well as making them into dollhouse miniatures. As soon as I have created them, I will show them. :) This is exciting!

I was looking around for french madeleines packaging ideas and saw this lovely photo which I wanted to share.

This is so elegant!

Photo of the day - French Madeleines

I had an accident on Sunday. Was about to hang my laundry in the balcony when I fell. The floor was a little slippery and I landed on my bum. But I felt pain not in my bum but my foot instead. My big toe nail cracked and there was some blood. The nail is still in tact, but it's bruised and painful. Actually I think it's a little loose and it's only time that it will drop off. But right now, there is some pain still. I've just went to the doctor today, and I wouldn't have if not for the walk yesterday. I went for a walk to the market and it bled a little while I was walking. By night, my feett was swollen, which prompted me to go to the doctor today to get some proper antibiotic cream for it. I would be making a trip to the art shop once my toe no longer hurts :) Need some new supplies.

Made these madeleines with air dry clay. These are not 1:12 scale dollhouse miniatures, and definitely bigger than 1:6 scale, but were requested by a customer who wanted large madeleines. I also experimented with some new painting techniques which I'm quite pleased with! The photo doesn't really show so well, but the edges are lightly crisp which I like.

Enjoy!
