Beach Making-2 Rocks

I am leaving for the US.   I will visit the IGMA show. Really looking forward to it!
Because of that I will come back here ...to this blog... on Sep. 30th. as I won't bring my computer along with me.

Making rocks.....I am using the mold and plaster

from  Woodland Scenics products.

Very easy to make!

Beach making -1

1, Cut styrofoam by electric saw.

2, Cut the boat. I bought this boat at miniature shop.

3. Make beach base using "Plaster cloth" by Woodland Scenics.

4.  Set out wood fence, pole for canvas and a half of the boat.

Not glue at this moment, though.

Woodland Scenics products are great help to make outdoor scene!!

Don't Disturb

"Don't Disturb" is the title of my beach project 1 inch scale.

       I displayed this such a cute "merbaby" made by

   an American Doll & Miniature artist, Todd Krueger.

This is my beach scene, I prepared this in 2008 for my

solo exhbition in Tokyo.  

Now I am going to show you how to prepare this beach scene

step by step from next my post.

Cat Paws Bakery - Almost completed

Finally I displayed  sign board I made.  

A cat and a little birdy....both are I collected before.

I glued the bird onto cat's head...ha,ha!

Wishing they get along as I love both birds and cats.

The cat is made by Japanese miniature artist, "Kiki".

I love his creations, cats, but  unfortunately he does not sell his 

miniature cat anymore.

Making pansy flowers by using paper kits.

I painted all of them using small paint brush.

After painting, cut from the sheet.

The left one, I finished it at first....not good!!

Does not look like pansy.

Right one.....getting better a little?

I finished displaying this flower shop corner

right next to the Bakery.

Cat Paws Bakery - Ads Bicycle

My husband made this ads bicycle from Phoenix Model kit.

I added basket(I made it) and also shop's name. 

Cat Paws Bakery 3

I added acrylic case on the show case.

I have done the show case!

Cat Paws bakery 2

I made a show case.

Cakes by some miniature artists.  I also made some of them.

Cat Paws Bakery 1

This is the start of "Cat Paws Bakery".

I got this cat image from a real shop in Manhattan, NY  in 1996.

Cat's name is Maybel.

It seems they closed the shop already.....sad!

I made this dollhouse from scratch but only the image of cat is a

original picture from Maybel cat.

 

Hydrangea

I made this Hydrangea by using paper kits. I painted the metal basket and stool
as rustic look.  I am going to open webshop and sell paper kits.... Hydrangea,
pansies and ivy leaves and so on  in the near future. I will let you know here after
 opening web shop.

Tomatoes!

Tomatoes by Masahiro Mahara.

Making flower or leaves, he told me that he's using "plastic paper" which is

discontinued material. According to him, he still has a lot of stock of it.

Love Strawberries!

These wonderful miniature works by Masahiro Mahara.

I love his creations!

He cuts leaves and flowers by using scissors. It is just unbelievable!!!

I will take movies the scene he uses scissors next chance

I meet him at the miniature show.

Close up - Sewing Table

Sewing Table

I displayed this table for miniature show in Tokyo.

I made basket tote bag, painted stool, hat stands.

Sewing machine I used Chrysnbon kit.

Bird nest with Eggs

When I attend the miniature show in Japan,  I sell miniatures I found
at Miniature show in the US or in the UK.
I sell miniatures I made as well.

I made these bird nests. Using hemp strings and green foliage.
Eggs are FIMO.  All of them got sold out at June/July show in Japan.
I will make some more.
