This week has been a rather quiet week. I’m done celebrating the end of Odd Thomas 3 (House of Odd), so I’m settling down into doing some doodling while the next book is being figured out. Apart from doodling, also crafting, of course. And catching up on some reading and gaming.
Step 1: I bought this off Rakuten.co.jp again. I belated noticed that this one was listed as "challenging" (ie. the hardest difficulty level). Be prepared for bloodied fingertips!
Step 2: Pull everything out of the box, and check that it's there.
Step 3: Start stabbing the main body of the cake. This one takes the longest, since you're taking a big wad of wool and making it shrink and adhere to a certain shape.
Step 4: Finally get the roll cake done. Add some nice strawberry filling and cream to it.
Step 5: Hash out the remaining bits and pieces, including the strawberry and blueberry. The strawberry was a specific shape, so it took ages to do.
Step 6: Stick everything on top, and needle it in. Only the small flaky bits left!
The final product! Pretty nice, methinks:
Hmmm… this one is a bit more easy
Can I buy this one online Queenie?
I believe you can buy it off at Rakuten.co.jp.
I bought it off here: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/makino-hobby/item/10001097/
This store called Makino-hobby.
Revisiting again, bought one yesterday and we’re doing it now with my daughter.
Thanks Queenie for this cute stuff
Great to hear!
If you’re doing the wool felt ones though, I believe the kits don’t include a felting needle, so you may have to get that separately. You can probably get it at any arts and crafts store, along with some protective gear like finger pouches to protect your fingers.
Thanks, I think we really need that one
