HoneyDukes update

Well as you all know I decided a year or so ago that I was going to do Honeydukes from Harry potter. Thought it would be a great one to do. However im sick of the sight of fimo, stock flock, caviar beads and bloody Jars! but still im enjoying it. Over the last few days I have been looking at what I already have for the shop, and what I have still to make and buy. An update into what the shop looks like will be shown later.

So here we have some sugar quills, that are referenced from the film.

some pumpkins with lollypops in,. I didn't make these, the fabulous Kerry from Ella rose miniatures made them for me, infact a lot of my sweets are, but hopefully my practice is getting better at making little sweets and things, but I doubt I will be as good as her. There too tiny lol. Im better suited to things a little bit bigger :)

Pumpkin sweet display. im hoping to put a shelf sort of half way in this window so that I can put the other pumpkins on it, as the bottom window sill is full :) Just need to work out an idea on how to do it hmm.

I had a play with some materials here. It is actually Velvet powder/soft flock from the nail art section in pound land :)

Here I have used various things, such as beads, clay, fimo canes, caviar beads

Here we have the 'NO melt' icecream stand with reference from the film. This was made a few years back by the talented Erika Van horn way before I started attempting to make miniatures myself.

At the front of the picture are some 'No melt' icecream's by Nikki Rowe, the colours of shelf were perfect but not a conincidence of the colour scheme for honeydukes, so it was a perfect buy.

Icecream stands, again made by the talented Kerry from Ella Rose miniatures a few years ago. I think I am going to make a big bertie beans box to go in the middle.

Lots of pots and wood stain paint

well last night I decided to paint some pots and the wooden bench for professor sprouts greenhouse. They won't be anything going in these pots. Thought they would look effective in the corner empty. think its looking good already. I plan to put some green ivy type plants up on the side where you see professor sprout and the pots and some archways just like in the film. on the other side there is going to be a bench. obviously the bench in the middle is going to be filled with lots of madrakes and soil etc.

Professor Sprouts Herbology Greenhouse!

I havnt done well at updating my blog, pretty usless!
I bought this green house from York Dolls house fair about 1 year ago, and decided to turn it into Professor Sprouts Herbology Greenhouse from Harry potter.

I painted it in light grey paint and sanded it down to look aged. here is the results. Pretty happy with it to be fair, although not quite sure whether it was grey in the films or an off white.
