Miniature Sweets + Shopping

| On
Wednesday, 12 December 2012
It's nearly Christmas, but somehow I am feeling a bit lazy to make something, these were the stuff I made during the last two weeks. I want to make more green and red objects because it's a classic colour combination for Christmas, but at the end I ended up making something I normally would make. 
 I also made lots of fake clay sprinkles for decoration, these took ages to make because I had to roll them individually and cut them into fine pieces. I really like the colours, it's fresh, bright and fruity. 
 Some pastels too. 
I went shopping yesterday and found some real bargains! I was really happy to find these mini piggy spatulas, they are great to mix my cold porcelain clay mixture.I also saw these metal chocolate moulds, they are perfect for my miniatures sweets, and I can use them as tarts and even bowls. 
 The front and back detail of the mini spatulas, the tail is so cute.
 The chocolate moulds came with a nice tin, it makes it so much easier for storage. 
 Each of the shape came in 3s, plenty of stuff to make with all these moulds. 
 Here are all the shapes, I am really happy with the variety of shapes it came with.
Some of them has a nice detail on the back. I have been using flexible moulds for a while now, so these metal ones are really new to me. I am not sure how well the object would release from the mould but it's definitely worth trying.

I will be updating more creations, and add more items to my shop!

More cute crafts coming soon!

Cute Moulds

I went to Daiso a few days ago and bought these cute moulds!! I missed the rabbit one before so this time I have to grab it! I wish the bear mould is back in stock as well. 


I saw this really really cute fabric at a hobby store, it was very expensive but I cannot resist cute stuff >_<, especially when they have these cute desserts print on them. It was $15 NZ per meter, but I had to buy it! 


These are the original packaging, it is packed very well and the moulds stayed in shape. Every time I go to Daiso I would rush to the cooking/ baking section to check out if they have any new stocks~ They are very useful and a big part of my craft making. 


I am going to use them as resin moulds on the hearts, too bad they are not for chocolate :D. All my moulds are use for crafts even though I really want to make cute food with them as well.


These rabbits are a bit big for sweets deco in my opinion, I really want to try soap making and use these as moulds. I have watched tutorials, the processes are simple and really straight forward but I am just curious about the chemical- Lye that is used to make them. Hopefully one day I would have a chance to   get it and make some soaps and cute crafts!


Happy Crafting!
