This was back in the early '70's where there weren't so many options in regards of what you could create with. After that I focused on Russian Punchpoint Dollhouse rugs and embroidered linens, bed coverlets and pillows. <br /><br />I stumbled on your blog today and now you have me wanting to create again. I swore I never would after completing two dollhouses and losing them and our home in a fire. They are a labor of love especially when it comes to selling what you make. People look at your like your crazy..."you want me to pay how much for that tiny pillow?" lol.Sandehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00850405581757309557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450570313984527266.post-1562971367651904532015-02-15T05:19:29.741+00:002015-02-15T05:19:29.741+00:00you did a great job on the sweets :)

I was trying to find a more granular sort of sugar rather than sparkly which seems impossible to track down in the UK. Just as I was writing this I remembered a pot of fake snow I have in my flower making drawer. Lo and behold this looks perfect for what I need!! I think I got this with some model railway scenic materials years ago......<br />Caviar beads are perfect for too. Off to Poundland tomorrow definitely with a trip to a model railway shop nearby too.<br />Thank you for the suggestions.<br />onbeingaminimumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11176422732636109060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450570313984527266.post-72565171187663997182015-02-13T15:54:01.927+00:002015-02-13T15:54:01.927+00:00So encouraging as usual Faby.

They are simply very fiddly and sometimes have to be prised out very gently with a cocktail stick. Not much help for you I am afraid.

You should also keep a look out in the pound shops for little jars or pots of caviar beads as these look good on cakes as well as wheels of butterflies, flowers and fruit. They are all found in the nail art section. <br /><br />Hope this helps<br /><br />Natalie xNatalie Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16759712575337713972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450570313984527266.post-20150746553937002422015-02-12T16:19:29.656+00:002015-02-12T16:19:29.656+00:00Everything is perfect for your cake shop.Everything is perfect for your cake shop.Fabiolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12689788579523220109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4450570313984527266.post-50757772926530727692015-02-12T12:38:44.975+00:002015-02-12T12:38:44.975+00:00Hello Janice,
