Mini-filled Weekend...

This weekend has been a miniaturist's dream - a workshop, a fair and three new followers! You are all very welcome and thanks for joining me! So...on Saturday morning I attended a workshop using polymer clay to make French-style patisserie cakes. Although I've played about with this medium before I have never really got into it so it was most enjoyable to actually be shown how to use it and to pick up tips from the experts. Here are my creations...

and some more...

Then today it was another early start as I like to get to a dolls house fair for the doors opening! All the usual exhibitors were there with a few new ones. I never attend a fair with a fixed idea of what I will buy as you will inevitably be disappointed so I try to keep an open mind and have acquired this little lot from the fair-

- nothing too exciting, some plants and crates, a kit to make a handbag (made it as soon as I came home and two more from the leftover fabric!), another kit to make beaded handbags and some coving for Mulberry Cottage...talking of which - we're nearly there and I hope to be able to reveal it to you very soon so until then...
