About Me

I've been into dollhouse miniatures since the early 1990's now and when I realized how much I've learned during that time, I thought I'd make a blog to share my knowledge with others. I'm mostly auto-deduct, but always found help on the Internet and in specific books. The mini-world starts and ends with your own imagination, so let there be no limit. And never say : I CAN'T .... because you can, you just need to try and have the necessary know-how. And that's the main reason why I started this blog, because I wanna share what I know with newbies in the miniature world or anybody else who might be interested in sharing what I've learned so far. So, hopefully, I'll be able to provide some useful hints, tips and tricks for those of you out there just starting with this wonderful hobby

DIY Food (Polymer Clay) : Macarons


Hi there

as you can see, you really don't need to be afraid of working with Fimo / Polymer Clay, just give it a try and even if the first few of your creations will end up in the trash, don't worry, the next one will be better .... there's lots of help out there, check out the video tutorials on Youtube


As promised, here's a picture of my first try in making macarons (in polymer clay of course) :-)) They are really really tiny, as you can see in the pic showing the little plate in my hand (see below). I'm very proud of the little tea set, I made everything myself, except for the spoon.

Tiny Macarons ....... I definitely needed my magnifying glasses to make them







When I look at this mixture, it's really amazing what you can do yourself with just a little FIMO.

I made the round marble board, the tea pot, the mug, the plate and of course the macarons.
Here's a closer look at the macarons, nicely piled up on a tiny little plate.

  2. Dany your tea pot and cup and plates are awesome! I can't believe you made these yourself - you are sooooo talented. Dishes and cups and pots are so difficult to make (for me at least ;) and you mastered it perfectly!

    Cheers,
