At last it's finished I've had to dodge the rain today to take the last of my chocolate shop pictures but I hope it's been worth it.

That is tremendous Emma! I love it all but the lace for the tables, the displays and that cake on the second floor with the cascading strawberries are amazing!! The care and detail of the vignettes truly set this apart, well done and thank you!!

My next video is up on you tube and its all about Christmas. Have you all got long lists of Playmobil you'd like?

I think I'll start up a new thread about that 

So here's the link and a few pictures below.

Emma,

Your scenes are FABULOUS! I just LOVE how you mix things together (clay things, doll house things and of course playmobil).

I always loved miniatures and I started, earlier this year, to create miniature things out of polymer clay. But I stopped shortly after getting into it because I had no idea what to do with the things I created!

Well duhh... I should have thought of that myself! Thanks for the inspiration!

I love miniatures... and I Love playmobil... 

Thanks for sharing

  Happy new Year Everyone! 

I hope every one managed to get what they liked for Christmas. Saddly there was no Playmobil this year for me 

can you tell me if you use oil or acrylic painting ? thanks jeremy

Hi Jeremy, I've used Acrylic paints on the houses and furniture. I've found that a couple of coats will set quite well but you could cover them in a spray varnish if your worried about them being knocked.

  Dear Feather, thanks very much for your kind comments and lovely email. I've only been making things from polymer clay on and off for about 6 months and that's mostly off as I just don't seam to make the time to do much  .
I'll gladly give you any hints I can about making things, some things I've picked up from two books by Angie Scarr which are a must for any polymer clay artist, and some things are just trial and error.

As to the round tables they are covered gift boxes which you can pick up at a local craft centre then covered with nice card and ribbons.

  Yes alot of my stuff is made from bits I have around the house or in my craft boxes. I've collected loads of things over the years as I've tried my hand at lots of hobbies including jewellery making, painting miniature models, making doll's house furniture, and now the polymer work. 

  Emma.

Wow...  You're my new hero!
You and I are very similar in interests (I like to try anything I can put my hands on - art and craft speaking, that is). I, too, have accumulated a lot of material through the years. My problem is knowing what to do with the things once the interest fades a little. For some reason, I've never mixed crafts/techniques much. And only barely have I ever mixed mediums.

You are very creative and your work is so precise! It seems like you can have an object in your hands and picture in your head what it could be (I've never thought of taking small boxes to make display counters!)

I have to stop seeing things for what they are... and start seeing things for what they could be! lol

Have a lovely day
