Despite the weather being a huge wanker, the miniature pastries I ordered online arrived without delay. And the lovely seller placed some sets inside tiny glass jars. I was too excited to play with them that I bumped my knee against the corner of the bed frame. Which, of course, led to a “So THAT is how I get bruises on my knees!” As I type this, the knee I bumped is turning an ugly side of purple while the bruise on my other knee has become barely noticeable.

But back to the miniature goodies…

Of course, I had to use the jars to store coffee beans (whole and slightly crushed):

Inspired, I made hanging lamps for the miniature cafe:

These are large filigree caps glued together and skewered with eye pins. These were attached together using wood glue because, I am not ashamed to admit, I am still completely enamored with wood glue.
