My second art fair!

 Recently I was part of an art fair in my hometown Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico with a lot of talented artisans. This is the second time I participate in an art fair and I have to say that the first time I wasn't prepared at all. I went with a white table top and my pieces! That's it! No decoration no nothing. I was starting out and I had no idea how to prepare my table to be attractive, so this time I was perfectly aware of that tiny detail. I am really satisfied with the way everything came out. People were surprised, excited and everybody was talking about my work! All my sacrifice is finally paying off!!







Remember that you can get my jewelry at www.cutetreats.etsy.com and don't forget to like me on Facebook :) www.facebook.com/cutetreatsbyjany Stay tuned for some new items and tutorials!

This is my place: Old San Juan Puerto Rico

This is my home Old San Juan, Puerto Rico. A place full history, lovely people and most of all Art. I love to live here, it is my inspiration everyday. Old San Juan is a little island which is connected by a bridge to the
rest of the island. 

 This is the view  when I walk out of my apartment♥

 This is El Morro Fort is about five minutes walking


 This is my place to relax to keep working with my jewelry. Every time I sit there I feel peace... I thank God  I'm so lucky to see this everyday...

 This is my inspiration! What's yours?

♥ Everybody loves Rainbow Cake! ♥

One day at the art store I saw this very bright and beautiful box of colors full of something called Polymer Clay. It was like a variety pack. I didn't know at that moment what polymer clay was or how to work with it, I just brought it because of the colors! When I got home I started to think; "What am I supposed to do with this?" I started to play with that thing that reminded me so much of my childhood when I had my kitchen play set, a set of plastic food and my imagination. I loved to make hotdogs with dough cut them and put them on a plate! I discovered my passion for food since I was a little girl.


Driven by that passion the first thing that came to my mind was a cupcake. My first piece was a cupcake :D (A really weird one I have to say lol) Then I started to make different kind of dishes and wala!! a rainbow cake!!! Everybody seems to be drawn to this beautiful combination of color. This lovely cake has been my best seller. I always try to vary my work. This one is a new version. The difference? Thinner layers and the frosting in between. I like this one better... what do you think? *** Want to learn how to make it? Check out my tutorial here: Rainbow Cake Tutorial
