☃☃ The Adventures of Dac and Laser + a Short Rant ☃☃

Chibis, Updates/Blog Leave a comment

Recently, my friend who requested the Panda and Taco keychain chain ordered a fridge magnet of the same character, and thus DacTac was born. He was lonely when he first came into this world, until he met the studio livin’ veteran Laser the Hedgehog.

Dac and Laser's adventures began at the Corner Shelf Cafe. Dac ordered a Strawberry Cake, as recommended by Laser.

Laser soon learned that Dac was not going to be here very long, so they promptly left the cafe to go sight seeing!

Dac and Laser seem to be quite popular with the Ponies.

Wanting to see more of the place, the duo hailed a CatCab to arrive at their destination more quickly.

They decided to pose for a picture before boarding the Cab.

DacTac, if you get this message, just know that Laser (and the ponies) miss you greatly.

Update, and why I haven’t posted anything recently:

The camera and I do not get along well. Whether it is the battery going dead, or the memory card taking a vacation, or the flash doing too good of a job, it seems like I always have some kind of problem. Today I took a bunch of pictures of new pieces, and the exposures on all of them are different (Thanks, Flash!), so it would look quite silly to upload them in the same post.  I might get them up today after my tech genius boyfriend shows me how to use the camera, or I might wait until after this holiday weekend, not sure yet. Either way, just know that there are a lot of exciting new pieces coming from the kitchen, including Holiday Cakes, Mickey Mouse, and Sailor Moon related items.

I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving with Too Much Stuffing! :p

☺☺ New Decodens and Halloween Stuff! ☺☺

Hi and welcome back! ^_^ After the video game character charms, and the chibis, I had a chance to make some cakes. There was a Halloween cake on the cover of a cooking magazine that had really cool colors, so my intention was to create it and put it in a Halloween container. Here is how it went down:

Despite looking lovely and yummy, it is too big for the container V_V

Next I made this one, which again, does not fit. I forgot how to measure X_X

After the last two, I figured I would make one even smaller, match the size to the container, and finally reach my goal. Well, at the last minute I stupidly put too wide of frosting on the edge and it doesn't fit either. >.<

Here are the three Halloween containers I decoden'd. The golden snitch lookin' bats, pumpkins, candy corn, and wicked witch head were made by me. (You may recognize the witch and small candy corns from a prior post. Yay they finally got a home:) )

That’s all the Halloween for now. Here are the rest of the Decodens.

This was a request from my Grandma to give as a Christmas gift to a little girl who likes flowers and princess stuff. I hope she likes it ^_^

☠☠ No One Mourns the Wicked ☠☠

Since I have been on this Wicked kick lately, I decided to make a charm of the poster image for the play:

 

I wonder what Glinda is telling Elphaba.

I wonder what Glinda is telling Elphaba.

Yeah I know, it looks pretty crappy, the lines aren’t too smooth, Elphaba’s smile looks like something off Sesame Street, and it’s kinda got a wobbly border. This is the first attempt, I don’t think it’s *too* bad considering that fact, though I will try again in the future to make a better one. My cousins and their kids love Wicked so these would make good Christmas gifts for them. 🙂

ღღ Miniature Teddy Bear ღღ

Charms 2 Comments

So I woke up a couple mornings ago and first thing I saw was my teddy bear Brownie. He’s been with me since I was a baby, so I am really attached to this bear. When I go spend the night out, I still pack him along. Anyways, when I saw Brownie the other morning, I thought I should make a clay version. Here he is below, Mini Brownie ^_^

 

The original Brownie is a bean filled chubby little guy with a goofy smile and tiny eyes that are slightly crooked. I tried to replicate those attributes with the mini version.

When I was a kid, I imagined that Brownie was a “Circus Bear”, because his yellow collar kind of reminded me of what a clown would wear. Now the collar is very faded and the stretchy band in it has all but worn out :(. At least he is still in over all good health and now has a mini friend ｵｶｴﾘ♪(ﾉ´∀｀*)ﾉ

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!!

I have been talking about making this for a while, and finally got to create it today.

Any other Candy Crush fans out there will know exactly what this is. ＼（＾ ＾）／

°o° Donuts and another friend °o°

Donuts, Mickey Mouse Leave a comment

Since I don’t really like to eat donuts, cause they are soooooo bad for you, I like to make them and still appreciate the aesthetic value, without worrying of any spoiling. So here are more sweets to feast the eyes upon. (’-’*) フフ

Mickey Mouse Doughnut. I made this for that special person in my life since he loves Mickey. It came out pretty much exactly how I imagined it. :)

Hello Kitty Candy Pop. There is still debate around here as to whether this is an ice cream popsicle or candy lollipop. Either way, I think it's cute ^_^

Alright sorry if you want to eat some sweets now X_X

Oh my, a song about a sweet tooth just played randomly on my music mix. It’s a sign; go ahead n’ indulge 😛

I’ve been wanting to make more realistic looking cakes since I first made them as an afterthought of the main project.  So, here they are!

I got pretty addicted to making these wands. I think I have made like 6 moonsticks now? 😀

Chibimoon's Pink Moon Stick. It came out pretty well, except for that star giving me so many issues. Does anyone have any advice on shaping stars without a mold!? -_-

Thanks for taking the time to check out the evolution of my Sailor Moon wands.

If anyone has a favorite character’s weapon or henshin, let me know and I will try to make it ^_^ Since my favorite character is SM, it’s hard for me to break out and make things for other characters, but if someone gives me a request , it will give me the inspiration to try something new.

 

 

❤❤ A Few Cookies ❤❤

Cookies, Sailor Moon Leave a comment

These are the last of my latest batch of cookies. I need to make more >.< But I have been too preoccupied making Sailor Moon things. Anyways, check em out

The mold I used for this one is a bit smaller than the previous cookies. It is more compact, but I feel limited for spaaaaaace.

This is a "warm color" version of another cookie I have previously posted. The little lemon broke before I had the chance to reinforce him. We have transported this cookie to the ER for surgery this afternoon. Feel free to leave him flowers so he can get better soon. :p

Sorry it’s been so long since the last update! m(_ _)m ゴメンナサイ

Lipgloss is more fun when it comes in a cute container ^_^ . Since the gloss is purple I tried to make a similar matching color pattern on the lid.

This is the second fruits of the round table, this one having more colors than the last. I gifted the other one to my boyfriend's mom, she really liked it! :) So I figured I would make another one to replace it.

When I made this box, I tried to make the theme "things Usagi (sailor moon in her regular human form) would like".
