Gingerbread Jewelry this Christmas


Gosh, it's Dec and I haven't updated this blog since Thanksgiving!! I've been soooo busy... so I'm sorry about that. :)

Anyway, I'm really excited to show you my new handmade jewelry (or jewellery UK English) which I created for Christmas this year. Despite there being other 'mini food jewelry artisans' out there, I don't think anyone else is doing miniature gingerbread house earrings as dangle earrings - so I feel like they're quite special and unique. I worked hard on creating a special and unique design too.
They are also extremely tiny (much smaller than they appear in the photos) - so they will be a talking point at the Christmas party I'm sure!

Handmade by myself in smaller than one inch scale - these little iced gems hang on surgical steel findings (in black because I felt that would look cooler than silver), and all of the candy on them was handmade entirely by myself. See gingerbread house pendants below as well.

Here's a 'making of' photo below... I did a few at a time and hardened them in my craft oven, then once cooled I attached the earring findings. Just a little varnish in places and they were ready!

Find them at my online Hummingbird Miniatures Etsy shop and order ASAP to ensure you get them in time for Christmas gift-giving. They come in my pretty Hummingbird Miniatures packaging - so they're ready little stocking fillers!
** Please note that my Hummingbird Miniatures shop will close for 2 weeks (16th Dec 2013 - 1st Jan 2014) so that I can travel home to England for the holidays - get your sales in before that date! :) **

Healthy Love of Jewelry

Want to express your healthy love of jewelry?

Unlike Marilyn Monroe's character in one of my favourite films - 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' (1953), who famously sang that "diamonds are a girl's best friend"... I've always loved costume jewelry more than real jewels. Just as well probably!

Well these aren't diamonds, and they're not fake diamonds... they're carefully crafted handmade blushing grapefruits which are perfect for the summer.

I loved making these. (All done myself without the use of bought canes, naturally!)

More Miniature Food Jewelry

Have you seen the brand new Mini Food Jewelry items now listed at my online store?!

Here's a quick glimpse. People kept requesting Gingerbread Men so I now have two kinds of gingerbread men earrings, a gingerbread man ring and a gingerbread man pendant... so it proves I do listen to people's requests!
