Me on national TV - Jag på nationell TV


At this site, link , you can see me in the TV program Philofix, where I make a miniature banana in fimo! It is about in the middle of the program :)

......................................................


För ca ett år sedan spelade jag in ett avsnitt i programmet Philofix, där jag gör miniatyrer. Ni kan hitta klippet på den här länken Mitt bidrag är ungefär i mitten av programmet :)


När jag spelade in det här, spelade jag även in när jag gör en cheese-cake och visar upp olika tittskåp, men tyvärr har de inte med det i programmet, det kanske kommer i ett senare program.

Blueberry pastries


Here is some blueberry pastries with whipped cream that I have made. Now I only wish they where in scale 1:1 and real (: ... I looove sweets! These are made in polymer clay and liquid fimo in 1:12 scale, they are about 1 cm in diameter.



Recently I also started a new project, I have finally started to build the doll-house from Greenleaf that I won in a competition at CDHM last Summer. It is the two storage Tennyson house and I will try to take photos of the ongoing project and share it with you!



So I will show both my miniature food and my building and decorating project here from now on :)

Flowery Wonky cake

I think wonky cakes are so wonderful, and not very common in Sweden! Here is a miniature flowery Wonky cake I made. The tiny flowers took ages to make... I don´t have any mini cookie cutters so they all are sculpted painfully individually (: But I like the result and wouldn't mind having this cake for my birthday in real size!


This miniature wonky cake is available in my CDHM-gallery:

Last sumer days


How fast the time pases by! I have been very busy lately with studies and miniatures, this Saturday I will teach a class over at CDHM on how to make peeled miniature oranges with peels!

Here is a watermelon board with a lasting summer feeling. Looking out of my window I can´t keep from wondering if the last summer days is over... I can even see some yellow leafs falling! But looking on the bright side, I love those autumn days when one can stay inside, watching a good movie with a cup of tea and good companionship. Or creating new miniature pieces without having a bad conscience about missing the warm sunny weather outside!

Ruhbarb Pie

One of my favorite desserts is Ruhbarb Pie, I love the fresh taste of the rhubard in combination with sweet vanilla sause!

Well I haven´t actually eaten this for a long time, since I try to not eat to much sweet stuff ;)


I bought the cooling rack not long ago, I love how delicate and real it looks! I think I must buy more of them to display cookies and bunt cakes on
:)



And a warm welcome to my newest blog folowers!

Banana cream cake in the making






















Here is a banana cream cake in the making!
I made the old fashioned bowl to and I think it turned out well to be one of my first.


For me this kind of cake brings back memories of my
childhood birthdays.

My mum used to make either banana cream cake or strawberry cream cake :)


Do you have any special cakes or pastries which brings back your Childhood?

All the best

Another orange :)


This week I am visiting my family in Norrköping (in Sweden) and celebrating my little sisters 10th birthday! I have a nice suprise for her and I will post pictures later on (:

This is one of my orange sections I make, photografed before it was sent to the U.S. In August 21 I will have a class/tutorial at CDHM and teach how I make it, orange peels and whole oranges. If you are interested in joining this class you can sign up at: Custom Dolls, Houses and Miniatures

Cooking plums in miniature

Hello everybody! I am really longing for summer when I will have more time to spend on my miniatures, there are so many ideas waiting in line for me to make! Right now I am writing on my final exam in Sociology, but my mind constantly wanders away to new miniature ideas (:

Here is a commissioned work I made a while ago to a dear customer in the U.S where plums are being cooked, wonder what it is going to be.. jam perhaps ?

------------

Hej allihop! Jag längtar verkligen till sommaren då jag kommer ha mer tid till mina miniatyrer, jag har så många idéer som jag vill göra verklighet av! Just nu skriver jag på en slut tentamen i Sociologi, men mina tankar vandrar ständigt till miniatyrerna (:

Här är ett beställnings jobb jag gjorde för ett litet tag sen, där plommon kokandet är i full gång! ... undrar vad det ska bli för något gott, plommonsylt kanske?

A peak at my workspace


Here is my workspace! So now you now where all minatures are made (; I have got the half kitchen table! It is not a big problem, me and my husband often eat in the living room (: he don't mind since the miniatures makes me so happy and peaceful (:



I bought the organizer a while ago at a hardware chain. When I saw it at the shelve, I knew immediately that it would be perfect for my clay, tools and miniatures! It was the last one they had so I was really happy when I got it, It have solved a lot of problems and saved space for the kitchen table!




I also share my work space .... with my cat, Tiger! If he fails to take the chair before me in the morning, he always lies on my lap while I am sculpturing and he is so cute I cant lift him down!




Don´t you think he looks like he is surfing the internet :) ?

I also want to welcome all new blog readers, happy to have you here!!

Donuts, Doughnuts, Munkar!

It is a lovely day here in Sweden, the sun is shining and the trees has started to bloom! I love the spring, it is so full of opportunity's and the summer lays ahead!

At this Sunday I attended a tutorial over at CDHM, where Stephanie Kilgast showed how to make donuts! This was lots of fun, and very addicting... ones started I did not want to stop! Here are my donuts (: (in Swedish called munkar)

--------------------------------------

Det har varit en underbar dag här i Sverige, solen skiner och träden har börjat få grönska! Jag älskar verkligen våren, den är full av möjligheter och så ligger hela sommaren framför en!

Den här söndagen deltog jag i en tutorial på CHDM, där Stephanie Kilgast visade hur man gör munkar! Det var verkligen roligt och väldigt beroendeframkallande... när jag väl startat ville jag inte sluta! Här är mina munkar (:


.........................................

Of curse I couldent resist bying one donut for myself after focusing so hard on miniature donuts (: .... and it gave me the opportunity to take this picture

......

Så klart kunde jag inte motstå att köpa en munk till mig med efter att ha fokuserat så länge på miniatyr munkar (: ..... och så gav den en möjliget till den här bilden


Align Centre
Donuts in all kinds of flavors, my favorite is the one to the right with vanilla icing and nuts ... wait someone has taken a bite of one (;

......

Här är munkar i alla tänkbara smaker, min favorit är den med vit glasyr och nötter nere till höger .... vänta någon har tagit en tugga av en (;
