I'm proud to have some of the pink roses for my dollhouse! I think they're very special. The trugs and tool boxes were made with grandkids during school holidays. No.2 grandson made the brown toolbox for brushes etc. for his stable, the one with cleaning products was made by grandson no.3 (with a little assistance) for his kitchen. As you can see I'm experimenting with different finishes.

Recent fun and something special
When my daughter said she was going to make play dough for the kids I said why not make cold porcelain? She has never been interested in miniatures but is very talented and I hoped she might enjoy "playing" with the porcelain dough too! The results can be seen in the pictures below.

ReplyDeleteDeni, the cold porcelain is a mix of pva glue, corn flour, glycerine and sorbolene cream. When it dries it's surprisingly strong.
Warm hugs,
Susan.

ReplyDeleteWhat exactly is cold porcelain? The roses look fantastic, so do the trugs, you must have passed on your talents to your grandchildren.

ReplyDeleteAw, thanks Kim, your comments are always appreciated coming from such an accomplished miniaturist.
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret, cold porcelain is made from pva glue, corn flour, glycerine and sorbolene cream. I can let you have the recipes if you'd like. Unlike the talented Kim I'm hopeless with polyclay, it sticks to me and turns into slime!! I found I could work the cold porcelain though not with the talent of my daughter.
Susan.
Ok I will have the one that works the best then lol
ReplyDeleteI need all the help I can get!!!
