As you've probably guessed by the picture, cornflakes made it into Sarah's miniature life recently. I made three extra bowls because it's always good to have some spares hanging around for impromptu ice cream yoghurt with berries. The cornflakes are tiny squares of brown paper scrunched up and stuck in white paint, to look like… Continue reading Flakes
Brighten the Black
In a mad rush of inspiration, I've been doing a little crochet lately. "I wonder what these weird bowl things will be?" I hear you ask. Well, they turned into headphone covers for my very black, very boring headphones. I wanted to use some yarn left over from a Mollie Makes kit, but I barely… Continue reading Brighten the Black
Project Roundup
I've been spending a lot of time rolling paper into bowls, ready to be filled with teeny portions of cereal. I've also made the cereal boxes as well as some waffle boxes. I still need to fill the bowls with cereal, and I want to make a waffle machine as well as some waffles, though… Continue reading Project Roundup
Shorts with Pockets
As Sarah only has one pair of summer shorts, I decided to make her a few more pairs, and I wanted to try and put pockets in them. For my first attempt, I'm pretty happy with how neat it is. The pocket is, however, a little small. The shorts were also made differently, to allow… Continue reading Shorts with Pockets
Spaghetti!
The pasta has been cooked... ...and the sauce has been made... ...ready for Sarah's first attempts at cooking savoury dishes: spaghetti! I made three little servings of pasta with sauce on top, so I can use this dish at the Three Broomsticks as well. I also made some uncooked pasta, and a serving of pasta… Continue reading Spaghetti!
Patience
Guess what book I bought recently. *over-excited squealing* I've only been waiting two years for this beautiful book, and it's finally here! Kingdom of Ash is about 100 pages longer than Winter, at 980~ compared to Winter's 824 pages, making KoA my longest novel. It came with this promotional bookmark, which has the entire series on… Continue reading Patience
Project Roundup
After watching the first three episodes of the Thirteenth Doctor, I noticed that her coat has a slit in the back, so for the sake of accuracy, I added it to my miniature one. While I'm making alterations, I figured I'd put a band on the bottom of the denim jacket, for added realism. Sarah… Continue reading Project Roundup
Pots & Pans
The most recent addition to Sarah's growing kitchen is some cooking pots and saucepans. I really like the look of the finish I gave them, black lightly brushed with silver to give them a little shine. Sarah's putting them to use at the moment cooking pasta, though she and I have had many other ideas… Continue reading Pots & Pans
Grocery Shopping
Sarah's just returned from grocery shopping at the local grocers' (aka my crafting desk). She's bought pasta and sauce, for dinner, as well as more tea. You can see the little tins even have the nutrition table on the back, which are both smaller than the pad of my finger! The tea box is a… Continue reading Grocery Shopping
Just a Quick S.H.I.E.L.D.
As I have been very busy with real life stuff, there hasn't been a lot of time for crafting lately, but I did manage to make another badge! The design is from one of my favourite TV shows, Agents of SHIELD, which is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. You can see the original design to… Continue reading Just a Quick S.H.I.E.L.D.
