I’ve been wrapping up the desserts for the first bakery case in the miniature ice cream parlor/bakery room box, and I have lots of colorful pictures for you today. That, and a new cupcake mold for your own projects. 🙂 Adding to the sweets I shared in an earlier post, I made more macarons, heart-shaped…
My miniatures shipment just arrived, and I’ve been arranging some of the new pieces to see how they fit into the room layout. The biggest addition is the pair of bay windows that I’ll be adding to the (as yet unbuilt) front wall. I’ll probably wait to paint them until I get my urban diorama…
In between working on the miniature bakery and custom orders, I’ve been sculpting foods that are part of a collaboration I’m doing with Susan of Lush Little Landscapes. She’ll be displaying my food pieces in her lovely scenes, and I’m really excited to see this first batch of BBQ foods in its new habitat. Ready…
Now that the Italian book has been completed, it’s time for a new miniatures project, and I’ve decided to choose something based on how much fun I anticipate having throughout the process. 😉 I need at least one project before the busy holiday season is upon me to really get the creative juices flowing, and this miniature bakery…

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,…
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…
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…
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…
Yesterday I finished all but one of the savory dishes for the Italian foods book, which means that I only have to sculpt that final savory dish and a small handful of Italian desserts before the sculpting/photographing portion is complete–hurrah! Next week, I’ll work on the writing portion, which I hope to have done by…
