Cupcakes Clay

Hi guys it has been a very long long long time since I post something on the blog. It has been a month and I really missed posting on this blog. :)  I've never known how the last year of uni could be this busy and stressful, even this holiday I still got so many things to think and to do. I should really get used to it. I'm currently on holiday right now so I could spare a little more time to craft and post.

These are cupcakes I made for fun. I really missed making something for myself, since I have commissioned list to be done. Commissioned work are fun to make because I love sculpting, but I hate it when I put stress on it. *I'm the type of person who stressed over tasks* as I said before, I should really getting used to it and try not to be anxious everytime, because I know in this life you cannot dream a happy and stress free life. Problem comes and go, therefore you should not stay in one place and you should keep walking and be positive.

Enough with the whining section, now let's talk about the cupcake I've made. I've just bought a cupcake mold from a good friend of mine. She didn't sell it, she bought it from etsy store. *I don't have an etsy yet and paypal so I asked her to buy some*

This is my first trial using a cupcake base mold. This mold is easy to use. I have some tips when using this mold, first, condition your clay by kneading until it soft and warm, press it into the mold and let it stay for a couple of minutes. You can see the result is different between getting the clay out shortly after you press it and with a couple of minute stay.

If you let the clay sit for a moment in the mold, the clay is getting firmer 
and hold the shape better. 

 Yummy cupcakes!
I could tell they must be very sweet if they're real cupcakes.



That's it, the post for today!
I hope your eyes could enjoy the cupcakes :)
oh! Merry Christmas too by the way!
See you some other time *soon*
