The magic cafe is coming along nicely but slowly. Every single thing is made from scratch, its really satisfying every time i create a little piece.
I feel like the old style kits really teach me and give me ideas on how i could make miniatures myself without a kit.
This little dish has a heap of the small pieces i have made like mugs from staws and wire handles, bags, jars, books and a candle.
Here is an example of what i needed to create some flowers in a vase
Cut the wire to size, cut the paper into lots of tiny pieces.
Glue the paper pieces to the wire to then add into the bead vase
Really simple to recreate for anyone and i think it looks really good
I am almost up to making the centre tree and i feel like that might be time consuming, i dont think i will finish up until Sunday at the earliest!
I hope everyone is having a great week

You definitely need a lot of patience, but it’s incredibly satisfying to watch those pieces turn into something entirely new~ it’s amazing
