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!
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.
Alterations
I've had the time recently to make a few alterations that I've been meaning to do for a while, starting with slimming the legs of Sarah's jeans a little, as she prefers a slim fit. I also added nice sleeve ends to this old navy jacket of hers, as the sleeves were a little short… Continue reading Alterations
The Galley
Sarah's renovated galley kitchen is pretty much done! I chopped up the old freestanding units to make all the important bits fit into the box, leaving some excess bench space out for an island. The island still needs some doors, as that big white space looks a little weird next to the other doors. I… Continue reading The Galley
Tests
When one of Sarah's favourite Marvel characters is Captain America, and you've wanted to make a life-size shield out of cardboard for a while, what do you do? You test the idea in miniature. It's made from two layers of paperboard glued together and painted, and is sealed all over with a layer of glue. It… Continue reading Tests
