Khrafteesi | Mini Cookie Earrings with Sprinkles
Saturday, December 21, 2013
My first finished product. A simple pair of mini cookie earrings. I have been so inspired to make accessories lately that i just had to try to make a pair of cookie ones. I made this with out the use of a mold or a cookie cutter. So this was all manual labor (while watching American Horror Story)
Here are my own notes about my first pair of earrings:
Negative:
- - The sprinkles I made were too big for the cookie. I forgot to take into account that the clay shrinks up to 30% when it dries.
- - I did place some clay icing on there ( I didn't have my sealant at the time to make actual icing) and since clay shrinks (again I forgot to take that into consideration), ths icing kinda disappeared under all the giant sprinkles. :(
Positive:
- - Because I didn't use a mold or a cookie cutter, it looks a lot more organic and realistic (in a sense)
- - The texturing looks almost delicious.
- - The thickness and the size, I feel, f just right for a pair of earrings. :P
You can view my photos below on a larger scale by clicking on them. i scale them down so that I will fit the resolution of my blog and so that it wouldn't slow your systems down with large photos. ^_^
So this is "Khrafteesi's" very first completed accessory. (I do have several trial charms I will post those next time.)
So, tell me what you guys think I should try to make next? I am open for suggestions and maybe I will even give you the finished product (if I deem it shippable and not embarrassing). Leave a comment below. Don't forget to subscribe and follow my links. ^_^
