Featured on Les Minis de Dongedy

I am so proud to be featured on Les Minis de Dongedy by Dongedy, who is an excellent French photographer that I admire. With her penetration, she finds the accurate tiny scene that mini men can work in the surreal universe.

Her works show good sense of humor and most of them make me smile. Thank you, Dongedy!

Welcome to visit her Blog, Flickr and Etsy Shop. You will find a lot of treasures there!

Afternoon Tea & Birthday Cakes

Yesterday afternoon I went for shopping in the supermarket and bought some chocolate bread and waffles for the teatime in my neighbor’s home. She is my company during my husband is absent. She is broad-minded and optimistic. I like to be with her cause she always cheers me up.



I also took some photos of my minis in her place. This week, I try making some canes, like strawberries, passion fruits and candies. I have been playing polymer clay for several months but this is the second time for caning. It’s fun but also as long as I imagine. I makes some cakes too since my birthday is coming next week.



We are going to move in the coming two weeks and my neighbor is so interested in our studio and would like to rent it after we leave. From the view of her own, I understand how she likes our balcony and the view of Golf.



During the week, I receive two “House Move” presents form two friends: “MyFrenchCuisine” paints a cake plate for us. It’s pretty and delicate with rose pattern on it. Another one is a secret friend from United Kingdom. She sent me a colorful castle card and congratulates on our moving. Even it’s just simple words, I am really touched. They both and my neighbor are my remedy when I am lonesome.


Last evening I started thinking how to arrange the messy house cause my husband will come back soon.

Just now he gave me a phone call and said he was blocked in Narita airport; due to the volcanic ash, all the airports in Europe are closed. He waits for ten hours and decides to take the flight to Taiwan. Gosh! I have been waiting for him coming back this evening but now I will still need to wait for several days.

The most funny is he will meet his brother and her sister-in-law who move to Taipei recently. I wish I could go too! *LOL* & * weep* :~

Okay, I need to find something to do otherwise I must be bored in the silent castle. Maybe it’s a good idea to clean the house; I feel always refreshed after trashing all old dusty stuffs. :-) Have a great weekend!

Alice in Wonderland ◆Alice au Pays des Merveilles

During the weekend, we went to the cinema and saw the 3D movie “Alice in Wonderland”. The story is simple but the tea party scene is quite interesting.

After Alice dinks some kind of magic liquid, she becomes a tiny girl. Her little blue dress does make me crazy.

I imagine I could find some similar dress for my dolls but I find one stunning “Mad Hatter” doll on Etsy.

It's cool, non?! :)

My husband is going for business trip for two weeks. This time I don’t go with him cause I need to stay home and prepare to move by the end of April. So I got an extra Easter gift –a small bicycle! When I feel bored at home, I am able to go biking with my neighbor Elizabeth.

I passed a couple of cozy days last week and did not make any minis. I hope I can find some new ideas and inspirations to continue my next projects!

Easter Chocolate Collection *they are so cute!

Easter is coming.
I have seen many professionals, like Paris Miniatures, LINSMINIARTFORM, Tiny Deights and Doll House Kitchen, they have made so many inspirational Easter Eggs. I would like to try mine even I am so slow...

For me, the symbols of Easter are spring, flowers, grassland, and animals like birds, rabbits and chicken. But the most practical thing is we have a lot of chocolate to eat! XD


The rabbit chocolate I made is inspired from “LeNôtre” Easter 2010 collection; the unique chicken is from 2009 collection “Gallinette au jardin”. They are not made perfectly but when looking at these mini creatures, I do smile. :D


I also made some black Easter chocolate eggs and Mousse au Chocolat.



On TV, I have seen a lot of advertisement of the movie “Alice's Wonderland”. I definitely go to the cinema in the spring holidays!

Voila~Bonne fête!!

French Pastry Party *the 2nd series*

I am crazy for the mini French pastry and box making. I often apply “lace and birds”, which are two of my favorite elements on my design. They are also the symbols of love and passion. It’s agreeable to keep the packages simple and elegant! *It’s also easier to fold and glue.

For the pastry, I made some fruit tarts, profiteroles, domes and cream puffs this week. I got some inspiration from one French recipe book. I “stared” at the photos everyday and tried to tune the right colors. Eventually the result is not bad!

Now you can find them in my Etsy shop.
