Macaron Tower!!!!

Although I know no one is desperate for my updates, it still saddens me that my last post was 2 months ago because it suggests that I've been so busy I had no life :(


In fact, these towers were made a month ago and I only found time/bothered to take pictures today.


Mass produced macarons to make macaron towers. Expect more to come!


Making macarons are just a repetitive and boring process, but when everything comes together it's so pretty!


HAHA same macaron different lighting.







Wanted to list these on etsy but if you realized the glue gun screwed up and the cone was uneven so meh. Now sits in my own doll bakery.


Couldn't bear to exclude any pictures.

Cream Puffs on a Jar

Wanted to remake a fruit one, but was too lazy to chop up the fruit canes.

Wanted to use the cookies I made, but they did'nt look nice. Dug around in my stash of random stuff, came up with this! 





I want to list it on etsy, but am not sure about shiiping it overseas ><



:) Oh and I've just made an etsy sale! it's on its way to America now :3

Daiso Craft Guide Part 1

Here is my list of must-buys at daiso!

Mainly for larger scaled miniatures evidently :3





Cookie Cutters! Could'nt find those regular shaped ones but these are adorable!


Daiso air dry clay is great stuff! I use it for whipped cream. Mixing it with resin clay would make very durable miniature/charms too. Using it by itself is not as recommended though.


These cups are around 1:3 ? or 1:4. They are the smallest paper cups I see and you should have seen my projects involving them.



$2 will get you 40 cups. I use them to mix stuff as well since 40 is A LOT. In fact I still have a lot left.



They come with a pump but I prefer piping bags. Of course, I feel that main tip you will use is the star tip, but maybe I'll think twice after experimenting with the rest.


$2 for 24 glue sticks! A lot cheaper than say sophie and toffee, or bookstores. They come in chocolate, white, pink and transparent.


Frostbags! They have different types of bags in daiso so look out for FROST BAGS. I buy the smallest because 1) I get 48 pieces 2) Piping miniature does not require a huge frost bag. I find that frost bags will decrease the chances of cream bursting out and holes in the bags.


Dollies Cutter! These are a bit too small, but for $2 I am happy with it. Just use it to cut dollies shaped paper, and poke holes using a needle. I like to have a corkboard underneath so that the tiny paper won't shift around.

There's so many possibilities at Daiso, thats why I'm naming this post Part 1 as I'm sure there's a lot more cool stuff to be shared!

Random Updates

Just  couple of WIP. 


Cake made from the fruits! It now sits in my Dad's car :3



Experimenting with resin+daiso clay.


Old Macaron tower. I need to make a new one.

A Cuppa Beans

Spent the last day of 2012 doing these... Happy 2013 by the way!








Made from resin clay + water + a crazy lot of pastels + my cream mixture


For the pipping I failed numerous times because the white would mix witht he coffee so I don't know what reason. So I added acrylic gesso to the mixture and wala! But the tiny bit of mix would make the coffee look more realistic too!




As you can see the colour of the coffees vary because everytime I messed up the design I would just stir it and it would become lighter HAHA.




Random Huge Ass Cream puff I made because I was testing out my new clay! Yes new Air Dry Clay!

School started so there would be a lot less posts :/ In fact I scheduled many posts in case I make nothing in future HAHA.
