Cupcakes Inspiration

One of my favourite things to make in miniature are cupcakes. The sky is the limit when it comes to decorating them. Here are some true works of beauty I found while perusing the internet for inspiration on how to decoration my latest dollhouse miniature cupcakes.

Rings

I seem to have made a fair few rings recently, here are some of them:

This one is my favourite because of the little chocolate flower. Yum!

Making the Squirrel Tree Part 3

The Squirrel Tree now has a bit more landscaping. The grass and front path have been finished, and it's grown some extra ivy and foliage too. I've also weathered the side room a little.
 

I haven't decided if there is going to be a door or not. Perhaps my squirrels are very welcoming?
 
I repainted the inside to make it a little more tree-like and painted each floor. There's a light dusting of 'moss' to act as a carpet.
 
And I've positioned the chimney so I know for sure where the fireplace ought to go now.

What a tart!

Here are some fruit tart rings I made a while ago. They remind me of the desserts we used to get when I would vist my family in southern France. We would pick up a fresh and beautiful fruit tart from the bakery on a Sunday morning (the bakery being the only think open on a Sunday morning in France) and I'd spend the entire meal looking forward to it!

Picnic Time

Summer is (hopefully) on its way, and that means it's time for picnics. Here is my latest 12th scale dollhouse miniature picnic set. All we need now is some sunshine.
 
 

 
 
The sandwiches from my previous post were put to good use!

Made me some sammiches!

Following my lovely sarnie inspiration post, here are some miniature sandwiches I made. There are some ham and tomato, egg and cucumber and salami sandwiches.
 
 
And here they are with a cent coin to give an idea of scale.

 
My favourite ones are the egg and cucumber because I love the way the bright yellow yolk shows through the transluscent cucumber seeds. It's almost a pity to cover most of it up with the top slice of bread.
 
And here is a pair of sandwich inspired earrings I made for make + MADE.
