Miniature Danish Butter Cookies in 1/12 scale

I'm rushing off to meet Asuka and Sans for a year end celebration. So much to celebrate about! ^ ^ so this will be a quick one. I've listed just 2 sets since they took a long time to make. so fiddly, each 1:12 danish butter cookie is only about 3-4mm wide, i'm possibly -too- fussy about scale? heh.



more pics, and you can find more pics and measurements, or purchase them here on my Etsy:

;)

Although I didn't manage to make the 300 mark, it's been really nice to discover myself featured on quite a number of sites over the Christmas period! I kept blushing at the nice things that were said about my work, and yea, omg, i seem to be obsessive over cookies yuh!??!? I hadn't realized! guess that's what happens when i just want to be really good at something, do it over, and over, and OVER AGAIN.

and yet, i feel like there's more to be learnt and done!

So what are these sites? i don't know if they are blog aggregators or whatever, I have no idea who submitted my work in, but i'm so thankful, so whomever did this, THANK YOU! :D

It all started here-

really cheered me up, apart from a very funny and cute Christmas card i got from Dale. so ending this year with 2 other good friends (well almost, will spend eve with bf and family if this head cold doesn't get worse, sinus headaches are *@#&($*#&@#), is keeping this smile on my face (despite the thumping headache haha!)

i wanted to list more gummy bears (new packaging!) and larger scaled items, but i'm going to be late for the dinner...and since i'm taking a short holiday before the new year starts EXCITING OMG starting the year with giving a lesson on Tuesday, YAY! and commissions lined up....it's indeed a nice change from the last few months :P

so. preview of what will be available in 2012, both in 1:3 and 1:12 (though pics for the 1:12 aren't taken yet, camera battery went flat GAHHH)



(lol my cousin got me a cute little Christmas gift, a 1:3 Macbook Air HEEE it's actually a pocket mirror)

1:3 cookies and sweets and chocolates and more! :D

email me at snowfern at gmail dot com if you wish to reserve some of these 1:3 goodies, though most of it will be made-to-order :)

oh oh, and that CNY preview? these are the only photos i have until the camera battery comes back to life...-_-"


for Singaporeans, this should be pretty easy to guess what i have been making ;) in 1:3 and 1:6 only though, too difficult to do a 1:12 XD will talk more about this in 2012 ;)

AND I'm not done yet! bf has been working hard on his site, and just for fun, he's been making a calendar, you can download January 2012 from here:

i like it, not just cos i'm biased, it's my desktop wallpaper now. ^_^ I'm ready for 2012, ARE YOU??

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

(haha this post is such a contrast to the last depressing one eh? XD )
