I've been making dessert charms from Sculpey clay...
I have a love for making miniature things and a serious sweet tooth, so this was perfect for me and a LOT of fun. Don't get me wrong. I didn't have an easy time at first. I have burned many cupcakes after hours of tedious molding and a whole cake, so it has taken some real trial and error.
In a few days I will be trying different techniques for making realistic whipped cream and glaze for fruit pies...
They will be on necklaces, charm bracelets, cell phone charms, and earrings.
Everything is done by hand. I even learned to make fruit 'canes' for the decoration on top of the pies.
I'm putting my last winners (except you Monique, because I'm not done with yours or Mirne's, just be patient with me) in the mail Saturday. Let me know when you've received them.
Everyone who comments on this post, even if you have already won something from me, will have a chance to have your favorite dessert (from a list of what I can do) molded, sliced, wired, baked and sent to your home. I can even do a'la mode (sp?)
You all encourage me so much and I am so blessed for all of you. I would love to send something to all of you that I am glad to know through this blog. Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of money for postage as so many of you don't even live in my country.
These contests are a way for me to bless you back in a random way and without feeling guilty (mostly). That said, I may pick more than one winner...
Please leave your comments soon as I will disable them Saturday night at 10:00 p.m. and announce the winner Sunday night.
Love you guys.

Those are so cute! They look delicious too:) I love to do crafts too, but like you, money is usually a problem.
Thank you for the comment on my blog. I do like to speak the truth, even if it "cuts like a knife."
Love,
Jenny
Yummy!!1 These are super cute. You are very talented!!
You are one clever lady!!!
How on earth do you do this?
They look so perfect ... like you could pick one and pop it into your mouth ... WOW!!!!
oh those are soo cute! I have never heard of a cell phone charm, where would you hang it?
You must be very deft Lindsay. All these clever things you make are so tiny. They look scrumptious. xx
OMG these are awesome! I WISH my outlets looked this darn good. Such cool stuff. Hey, how can I find you on Etsy?? Having trouble. That site is so darn big (and fabulous. I go in looking for one thing and then, hours later I am so immersed that I forget what the heck I was looking for and how I got where I am).
I'm not on there quite yet. Should be early next week..
WOW! Those desserts are awesome! The cupcake ones would make a beautiful necklace!
The charms are really cute! Is there nothing you can't make?!
As for a lack of commenting, I just got on here for the first time in a few days. Been working and vegging. Anyway, as one who has never lost a baby, I sometimes don't know what to say when your posts go there. Not that I don't care, I just have NO clue what I could say that could possibly make you feel better. I feel so unqualified to help. I'm sorry, I really am. Just no words for what you've experienced. Like you said, tone doesn't come through in writing, so I hope I never say anything offensive. I never mean to offend. God bless.
Love,
Penny
Those are freaking amazing!!! Omg!!! I so love to bake but I dont even think I could get down like that!! There is so much work and you have to be so precise!! Way to go!
The winners are m and Jennifer Ross! Yay! You can find my e-mail on my blog profile page. Leave me your address and your favorite dessert (cakes and pies, if it's not too much trouble) Go into as much detail as you like. I love detailing these. Add your preference of: 4 magnets, necklace and earring set, or charm bracelet (three charms and three bead charms). I will make them as realistic as possible, and have fun doing it.
I can't wait for your e-mails!
Congratulations you two!
