The book is nearing completion, and I’ve finished all of the writing and the layout as of yesterday. The writing has been dropped into the layout, and tomorrow I’ll be working on dropping all of the project photos in as well. There’s a small handful of photos that I need to take again, because I’m […]

Miniature Italian Foods Tutorial: A Peek at the Cover
It’s always exciting for me when I finish the cover of a book I’m working on; somehow it makes everything feel more real. I spent all day yesterday working on the writing, and I’m continuing with that today, so I hope to have a significant portion of the text completed before the weekend. In the meantime, […]
Dollhouse Miniature Sweets, Italian Style
Today’s post is all about the sweet stuff. The final part of the sculpting for the Italian book was a handful of desserts, which I completed yesterday, and I want to give you a sneak peek at all of the treats you’ll learn how to make with the new upcoming book. A quick announcement before we […]
Dollhouse Miniature Pizza, Baked Ziti and More
I’m wrapping up the last of the projects for the upcoming Italian foods tutorial book, and today I have more yummy pictures to show you. In an earlier post, I gave you a peek at the pizza Margherita that will be included in the book, but I wanted to create a project for an Americanized pepperoni […]
Food Jewelry Falafel and Other Minis
We’re taking a short interlude from the Italian food pictures (more next week, I promise!) so I can show you a couple of custom orders I’ve just completed. The first is a pendant of a pita pocket with crispy falafel, red onion, lettuce, and tomato–yum! Second, I sculpted a set of miniature macarons in a variety of […]

Next week, I’ll work on the writing portion, which I hope to have done by […]
Dollhouse Miniature Arancini, Pasta Shells and More
I have some good news today: I’ve less than ten projects left to sculpt for the upcoming Italian foods book, half of them desserts, and then I can dive into the writing and book layout. The finish line is approaching, and I’m hoping to have a rough draft of the book done within the next […]
Miniature Pasta, Five Ways
Yesterday, I was sculpting a pot of miniature mussels marinara over pasta (which I’ll be showing you in a future post–it’s taking me awhile to make), and I had a bunch of pasta left over, so I decided to make spaghetti dishes with different sauces and toppings. Let’s take a peek… Making the pasta: First […]
Miniature Lamb Chops and Linguine with Clams
Two of the most time-consuming projects for the upcoming Italian book were finished yesterday, lamb chops and linguine with clams, and I have some pictures of both dishes to share with you today. Don’t forget to sign up for my mailing list to get an email (and a coupon) when the new mini food tutorial […]
Dollhouse Miniature Cannelloni, Stuffed Clams and More
The upcoming Italian foods book is progressing nicely, and I have less than a dozen projects left to sculpt. Then, it will be time to do the writing, after which I create the book layout and drop all of the happy content into the layout. The end is (somewhat) in sight! Today, I want to share […]
