They're not a kid's hobby, so you totally should take it up!

"Adult" dollhouse... sounds kinky

That roast leg of lamb seriously looks delicious

Wow, that's a cool hobby. I thought the first one was partly made of sugar for a second, like one of those culinary decorations, hahah. Nice work. Tons of detail involved too.

I love working with delicate detailing. Although, I hate to admit my 40K chaos army needs countless hours of work before it looks anywhere near finished, hahaha. Really need to get back into painting them...even if I don't play often.

Yeah, I thought the food was very well done.
I thought the ham was real! (on the website)

Lol I said adult to distinguish that it's not one for kids. I mean a collectable one rather than a play dollhouse. Though some people do make dollhouses with adult themes.

I'm so impressed by that ham, I wish I could ask her how she did it, but then I'd be tempted to make them and sell them myself. :P

Well, the sugar/almond type decorations are moulded in a similar way. Those metal 40K miniatures are tiiiny!

I put some Christmas themed things up on the blog now.

I am a bit stuck on ideas on what I should make next!

I'm not someone who takes much of an interest in doll houses but I just have to say it looks amazing. That snail house is my favorite. Where did you learn how create such cool and detailed miniature sized house hold objects. It obviously takes a lot of talent.

I could make stockings again, yes! I tend to do a lot of sculpture rather than sewing though. Hmn. The newest photo on the blog (the christmas box) I made.

Where did I learn? Um... well, I've had many years of practice, and basically you just fiddle around until you make something. I'm also part of a miniatures club that's taught me a few things.
