Wedding Cake toppers, a new set.

Wedding season is upon us again so I am working my way through the cake toppers.  I just finished this one this weekend.  I am happy how it turned out and looking forward to seeing it on the cake :)

Finished Cake Toppers

I finally finished this set of toppers, just need to add some finishing touches and then they will be shipped.  The photo quality is a bit rubbish as I took it with no natural light and flash was used, when you work full time what can you do? :)
All polymer clay as usual, now onto the next set!

Work in progress- cake toppers

Here is an update on my cake toppers which I am hoping to get finished this weekend, all being well.  I have 3 dogs to make yet as well as the groom :S

I couldn't resist getting the saw out again, I received some new blades in the mail and the size I am using now is much better so made life a lot easier!  I have finished off the 3 from my last post and will post pics at the weekend but above is my next piercing project.  Can't wait to get started on that one now!

Cake Topper-Work in Progress

Just a quick post to show what I am working on at the minute.  It's wedding season coming up again so orders are coming in, hurrah!

More pics to come as I progress :)

Work in Progress

Hello blog, I haven't seen you in a while....

So tomorrow is my last day of freedom! I start my new job on Monday, kinda excited and a little nervous but I am sure it will all turn out ok.

Other news I have started a diet, it's called the Dukan Diet! I am on day 3 so far but it is going well.  It is very strict and you can see more about it here

Before I start work I have 2 sets of cake toppers to make and then I caught up, finally!  Here is what I am currently working on.

Another set down

Here is my latest set of toppers, just finished and on route to the U.K, I love how this one turned out :)

I only have a couple of more sets to make and then I have caught up, hurrah!  I might actually be able to fit some jewellery making in then!

Work in Progress

Wow, been busy with these toppers, here is what I am working on at the mo and should be finished this weekend ready for postage on Monday.

As usual I will post the final result! Have a good weekend all :D

More Cake Toppers

Been busy, busy. busy with the topper lately.  Can't complain I guess! Looking forward to getting this next lot finished so that I can make some more jewellery pieces.  I am having withdrawal symptoms! :)

Here are my latest 3.

Etsy Finds & Wedding Cake Toppers

Yesterday I made it into the etsy finds, yay! First time ever :)
I got 2 sales out of it and a ton of shop hearts and item hearts so it's all good.  It was my 'Tiny star necklace' that was featured.

I also have these 2 sets of cake toppers to show you.  I made the first set (at the top) but they got lost in the post, or so we thought.  So then I had to make a second lot and get them posted (the most expensive shipping ever! :S)  It turns out the first lot turned up on the wedding day, a whole 15 days after they were posted!  This is pretty unusual as I had posted another set the same day to the U.K and they arrived after 3 days, hmmm


 Anyway it turned out they had to use the first set anyway as the hotel lost the second set! Luckily they found them later on but it was the first set that ended up on the cake after all!


I do think I like the second lot better, just goes to show, handmade means nothing is ever identical!

Cows & Stamped

I thought I would kill 2 birds with one stone with this post and show what I have been making in both shops.

First up is a new little stamped custom necklace for my shop in copper. I think it is cute and great for everyday wear.  I got a set of letter stamps so looking forward to playing around with those a bit more.
I have also ordered some lovely gem stone briolettes so can't wait for those to arrive either.  I love getting new supllies delivered! :)

Next up are these cow cake toppers, more cows!  The dress was really big and princess like so it was quite a difficult one to make but I managed to get it right in the end.
Jewellery will be put on hold again as I have a last minute order to complete for 2 weeks time which I would like to get finished by midweek at the latest.

Cake topper- work in progress

It's that time again, time to put down the jewellery and catch up on CT orders.  Here is a sneak peak of some cows I am making.  I have 2 sets on the go at the mo, you can't see the others though as the bride needs to keep the dress a secret from the groom, and he might be here...hiding:)

Also check out my new Etsy banner and Avatar made by WinchesterLambourne, it is freaking awesome if I say so myself.

That is all :)

More toppers & beads

I have been working like mad to get this set of cake toppers finished, the customer loves in the States and it was a last minute order so I was very conscious of the time. Finally finished today and in the post.  This set seems to include everything but the kitchen sink! :)

I also got around to turning these older beads into necklaces and have got them listed now.  They are polymer and all findings are sterling silver.  I think I may have blogged about these beads a while back when I made them.  Even though green is my favourite colour, the blue and brown necklace has to be my fave.

Cake Toppers Done!

Yay, I got this set finished, I was starting to panic as I thought the wedding was on the 10th May but it isn't until the 24th, big sigh of relief!
I am happy as I am now back on track, on another note I got my Prismacolor pencils in the mail today so I can start experimenting with colour on my silver pieces, excited!

Cake Toppers- Work In Progress

I have another set on the go, I was ill for almost 3 weeks not long back which set me back a bit with the cake toppers so I am trying to get back up to date.

Here is the bride all ready to go and her policeman groom will be finished soon. :)

Cake Topper- Work in Progress 2

Here is the bride all finished, just need to make the groom, attach them to their base and post and then onto the next! :) Stay tuned for the final piece.

Cake Topper- Work in progress

Here is a work in progress shot of a set of cake toppers I am currently working on, I hope to get these finished and posted by tomorrow.  I'll post a pic of the finished toppers once they are complete :)

Just to show...

Finished toppers

Just a quick post tonight to show the finished toppers I posted about last night.  This one was finished today and its on it its way, now onto the next! :)

Cake Toppers

My week has ended busier than I thought it would!  I have had a lot of cake topper queries this week so I have been sorting those out and sending invoices and making the dates on my calender etc.  Here is a work in progress pic that I am currently making.  This set will be finished by tomorrow ready for postage on Monday and then its onto the next!

Hopefully more orders will still come in and I will be kept busy.  I have also bought a new blow torch today to use with my silver solder paste so I will be trying that out on some new post earrings, cant wait to see the end result of those either.  I will get some pics up as soon as I have finished those.

Have a great weekend :)
