January: February: March: April: May: June: July: August: September: October: November: December: Two significant changes happened this year: I made an official blog Instagram account,…… Continue reading 2019 in Review
Project Roundup
The TARDIS walls are coming along nicely! I should be on schedule to have them finished by the start of season 12 on New Year’s Day. I thought this looked really cool, with the light blue against black. Big stack of hexagons ready to go on the walls, like the picture below: Above is where…… Continue reading Project Roundup
Welcome!
Hi there, welcome to My Life in Miniature! This marks the start of my active, regular updating of this blog (as oppose to all the stuff on here prior, which was on my previous blog Tiny Horse Talk). Hope you enjoy! FillieFanatic
Christmas Biscuits
I've been making Christmas biscuits! Thankfully, the icing set in time to photograph them. There's four of each biscuit, and we've got presents, wreaths and Santa hats. I also made a jar/canister for them all (mostly so they're easy to store in the mini Christmas box). Sarah's favourites are the Santa hats! Personally, I'm proud… Continue reading Christmas Biscuits
Smooth Summer
The Three Broomsticks has brought out some new drinks to (try to) battle the heat! It's super hot at the moment, so Sarah requested some smoothies to cool down. I made four flavours: mango, strawberry, apple and banana & blueberry. They've all got little paper straws too - I'm very proud of these! I made… Continue reading Smooth Summer
Off Duty Elf
You know the whole 'ugly Christmas jumper' thing the Northern Hemisphere has? Well, I wanted to try making one, but as it's summer in Australia, I had to modify the idea a little to make an 'ugly Christmas T-shirt'. I didn't do very well on the 'ugly' part - I think it looks quite nice!… Continue reading Off Duty Elf
Project Roundup
Christmas decorations went up recently! Sarah loves helping with the big tree (below), so I always make an event of it. She also decorated her apartment for the season, and put on some festive tunes on her laptop to "add to the ambiance". I've also been working on this crown. It's human-sized, and needs finishing… Continue reading Project Roundup
Star Stuff
I've been trying out some new stationery ideas recently, most of which worked! The pencil case has two sides, and I did try to add a lining, but it didn't work very well. I also repainted the coloured pencils, as the original felt tip ink was coming off. I also made this little exercise book;… Continue reading Star Stuff
Constellation Cookies
Sarah saw these in the local bakery and just had to get them, solely because they were called 'Constellation Cookies'. They're not actually made of stars, they are instead dark chocolate cookies with white choc chips. "No, BB-8, these are not for you." It seemed appropriate to snack on them up in the observatory! One… Continue reading Constellation Cookies
