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!!

Tiny replicas turned into jewelry!

So I was thinking to make different things with polymer clay. Food is my passion but suddenly It hit me "I can make miniature iphone stud earrings!" Here they are:

This is a lovely treasury that I made! I love all of these beautiful creations. Enjoy!

♥ 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

Process: Creating my own Kitchen Furniture

  I just started creating some furniture for my miniature kitchen!! 

My main purpose is to take pictures of my miniature food jewelry to make them look cuter than they are!! I looked for some inspiration online because I didn't have a design yet but ideas where jumping from everywhere.

I'm not used to drawing much.  All of my design I keep them in my hard drive (my brain :p) So I had an inspiration overdose.

  I went to an art store and brought some balsa wood.

Went home and I just couldn't stop working!! 

Measuring and cutting the pieces

 Assembling

I'm still working in some details Ill be posting more pics when its finished!

I cant wait to start taking pictures of my pieces.
