Hello all,
I am recuperating and getting stonger daily. There's nothing I love better than making mini flowers.
I want to learn to make flower arrangements. Here are some attempts.
And I went on to cakes. Those precious doilies Manu sent me just begged to be used.
Here is what I used to make this cake tray. A cut cheap plastic check game piece for the leg, the inside of a Coca Cola 1.5 lit. bottle cork with one of Manu's doilies glued on it and a vending machine tiny toy transparent ball for the cover.
More raffia bags and shoes. I really have to choose other materials to work with. Raffia is so uneven.
This is my latest experiment with making potion bottles from scratch. I found these lovely beads, punched circles of cork sheet with a recular office punch, stuck two circles together to make the stoppers. I rather
like the result.
I am happy to welcome two new followers

A big warm hug to my new and old followers and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your "get well"

It`s nice to read that you are getting stronger. Your flowers are beautiful.I am always impressed with your great ideas on how to make different things. Mona
ReplyDeleteDear Drora, I'm sorry to hear you have been so unwell but pleased you are now recovering. Your pretty flowers are outstanding! I also like your beach set with the rafia. It looks rustic, you see many real size beach bags made like this. I think you should spend more time recovering, it is doing wonders for your miniatures! Get well soon! A big hug, Gill. x
ReplyDeleteHello Drora, first of all it's nice to hear from you to improve your health.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are very well made and very yummy cakes. Glad you used the doilies. The set of slippers and bag is delicious and since I have the fortune of owning one, live is even better
Hugs.
Manu
I love the bags and the shoes, great work, saw some at Maria in Ireland's blog too =) They are really great =) Hannah
ReplyDeleteI am glad your felling better! Your flowers are amazing, wonderful and delicate! wonderful creations!
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you are feeling better. I hope that you get all the way better soon. Those flowers are so cute. I like the idea of the toy from the vending machine. The doilies are neat.Take care of yourself el.
ReplyDeletethese flowers are really beautiful! you're very good in making arrangements. Nice idea with making the cover of cake tray with vending machine ball. Pity it would be to small for 1/6 .
ReplyDeleteque encanto! adorei as flores, bolo, bandeija de bolo e potes, tudo muito legal, parabéns!
ReplyDeleteUm abraço de Fernanda.
I'm glad you are beginning to feel better Drora. Your new miniatures are all beautiful, specially the flowers, they are exquisite n
ReplyDeleteHello Drora,
ReplyDeleteI think flower arrangement might be another hidden talent of yours. The arrangements are lovely. As for the raffia items, I think they look lovely...they remind me of wicker factories we have visited when we travel. Beautiful work, as always!
Big hug,
Giac
I am here again , this time with virtual chicken soup. We are sitting in your kitchen (please bring your laptop there) and me troubling you with making a virtual tea :). We now move to the room where you show me the minis, coughing a little, hmmm , no, you are still recovering, not recovered entirely, and I am going ...wow! those bags are cuuuuuuute! I asked you what you mean by the coke bottle thingy? and then tell you how you are such a wizz with little beads. You then show me some of the teapots you have made with beads and I tell you how much I just love your potion bottles :):). I leave now, my dear. It's a long way back from your home to mine, even though it is only virtual. kiss kiss bye bye > :)
ReplyDeleteДорогая Дрора!
ReplyDeleteЯ рада, что болезнь отступила и мы имеем возможность видеть это - ваши цветы, пирожные, сумки и баночки - лучшее подтверждение!
С наилучшими пожеланиями из России. Елена.
Your flowers are so beautiful, so well made. I just love miniflowers. Your cakes and cake dish and glass are also pretty. Great summer set.
ReplyDeleteIt is good, to hear that you are getting better, I hope you gain weight so you have something to stand against with.
Hugs

les arrangements floraux sont très beaux et les gâteaux ... appétissants ! Le raphia n'est pas facile à travailler à cette petite échelle, il serait plus aisé de réaliser vos jolis sacs et chaussures en coton ou en ficelle fine.
ReplyDeleteBonne journée ! rosethé-Minima
Good to hear you are getting well Drora! I admire you for making flowers! For me it's a pure magic and don't know how one can make them in miniature! And your arrangements are pretty! The raffia miniatures look so summerish! :) Hugs
ReplyDeleteese arreglo floral te ha quedado muy bonito y veo que le estas sacando partido a los tapetes , haces bien ,,esos soportes para tartas quedan muy bien , y los botes de pociones quedan muy bien

Please don't stop making flowers and arranging them - they look so beautiful and if this makes you feel better...well, please go on and on with that! Good to hear you're regaining your energy. Your newest work is so lovely, the raffia sets look absolutely perfect for a day on the beach, I hope you're not going to change the material. And your cake stand is breathtaking... you're so inspirational. And I never would have tried on my own to punch cork with an office punch... what a brilliant idea! My best wishes for your further recovery
ReplyDeleteBirgit
Your flowers are gorgeous, Drora! I'm loving your arrangements. That bird of paradise flower is so realistic looking and exotic--fun! Your cakes look delicious, and thank you for showing us how to make the cake stands--beautiful work, as always. I love your rafia beach sets--they look so realistic. Finally, what a great idea on the potion bottles--they're so adorable, Drora. I'm so glad you're feeling better and are able to make minis while you're recuperating, Drora. Feel better soon, dear friend! xo Jennifer
