I am running a workshop this Saturday at the Fairy Tale Fair in Patcham, Brighton! You can make your own pendants and charms to attach to necklaces or bracelets. It is open from 10.30 till 4.30pm and is opposite Patcham High School entrance.

I am featured on the fair's blog here, which tells you a bit more about the workshop.

The Fairy Tale Fair also has a facebook page and is on twitter. Hope to see you there! xx

Some Photos Featuring a Plastic White Horse.

Elspeth would like to wish you a Happy Valentine's day. No rats were harmed during the taking of this picture but one of them was not the slightest bit amused.

Necklaces for my Cousin Helena's Bridesmaids

I'm not writing anything to go with this because I've got a really bad headache.

Here are some pictures of a miniature cheeseboard I have made. It gave it to my housemate as a present but I have borrowed it back. I don't know if he has noticed. I can make more cheeseboards with different cheeses on.

Here are some pendants I have made using polymer clay items embedded in resin with a polymer clay layer glued on the back.


Do you like iced gems? I can make them any colour and stick them to earring studs.
Here is a random photo of when I painted a Lichtenstein gun on my parents landing wall. My brother is now twice the height that he was in that picture.

...and here I am having a lie down in a flower bed;

That's all for now love MiniPatisserie xx

A sunny day in Bermondsey

Our observations (click on below image to enlarge)

Next time I will brush my hair.

Ali's etsy shop is here. It is absolutely essential that everybody purchases a mufflypuff right now.

Lewes Clocktower Market

Here am I at the Lewes clocktower market looking moody on Saturday last week;



I had two assistants, Phil and Alex. Here are our observations;



Here I am shouting 'GET YOUR CAKE-BASED JEWELLERY';

Melbourne Arts and Crafts Market

My view of the place

My aunty Jill

My cousin Laurence (very good at persuading the older ladies to buy cake)


I met some really nice people at the market especially Tina at the stall next to me who made necklaces out of buttons. There was one elderly lady who wasn't very nice though and said the price of my miniature cake was ridiculous and how could she possibly afford that. Then she ran off! There was a tombola featuring as prizes what seemed to be the unwanted contents of somebody's bathroom. I took a photo when no one was looking. The tombola lady said she would tell my fortune. As I had predicted to myself, the predictions were a bit vague but apparently there are angels looking over me (!). She also said I should come to her cancer support group and it didn't matter that I didn't have cancer or know anyone who had it. But I can't as it is a four hour train journey from where I live.
The old-skool tombola:

This was the best prize I think;

Me and the hoardes of customers...

Very Messy Workstation

I am just in the process of making some heart earrings but until I have worked out how to take some decent pictures of them I thought I would show some photos of my very messy workstation.

Into The Woods Open House

We went to the private view at the Into The Woods Open House in Florence road in Brighton on Friday and there were loads of things to look at. The best things were made by Emily Warren. For quite a lot of the time though I just stood and ate the crisps because they were kettle chips. Also there were homemade sushi rolls that I could fit in my mouth in one go. Alice bought a ring that looked like it should have magical powers then we watched the chickens running around.
