Dollhouse Miniature Food - Christmas Tree Cupcakes

I started making some christmas dollhouse miniature food a while ago as I know I am a tad slower when it comes to making miniatures. ^^

I love these 1/12 scale christmas tree cupcakes which I made most recently. What I love about them was that they did really quite look like a real christmas tree (I hope)! They were also really fun to make!

After this set, I have also made a pink set for Jackie and working on another set.

I'm really happy because as I experimented more, I had further tweaked and refined the way to make it look better each time.

Meanwhile, these have been SOLD ~~ Thank you Tracey!

Also, I wanted to thank you all for subscribing, reading and commenting on my blog. As my way of saying thank you, I am preparing for my next giveaway, so look out for the details soon. :)

Dollhouse Miniature Food - Green Tea Mont Blanc Desserts

I really love green tea if you don't know it by now :) I love it so much that I know I HAD to add that into my array of 1/12 scale dollhouse miniature food.

The leaf biscuit on the top of the green tea mont blanc dessert was an idea I had in mind. I like how pretty it sits on the top and hope you love that too.

Speaking of tea, my boss sent me some tea this week from Las Vegas. The tea was grown locally in a herb farm there, and I just had my first cuppa today, it was soothing and nice. Lots of lavender, elderberry and other herbs. The brew and taste was rather strong even though I only put in 1 teaspoon of leaves. :)

Have a great weekend everyone!

Daiso Soft Clay Review

Sometime ago, I bought a Daiso Soft Clay, wanting to give it a try. I was quite curious to see and feel how it's like. I recently tried it and my first impression was I didn't like it. Unlike Hearty clay, this has a soft, powdery feel. Although it is soft, but no matter how you press or knead it, it crumbles, which means you can't really create or sculpt a proper shape out of this.

With that said, I was not ready to give up and toss it away. Crumbly can be a good thing if you know how to further adapt and find a way to use it. I made a macaron with mostly Daiso Soft Clay, and waited till the next day to see how it feels like after it is dried. When dried, I was actually very pleased that it came out to be rather rock solid hard but still retain its lightweight properties.

And then I tried a few more "concoctions". Try mixing Daiso, Hearty and Grace. Perfecto!

Do give Daiso Soft Clay a chance...if you experiment it enough, you might find the beauty of it! I did!

I just love the natural crumbly texture of it that I had to take a closeup photo!
