I was wandering around on Pinterest and Youtube for some days ago and found some cute tutorials and pictures of donuts, made for jewelry. I thought that the size is a perfect fit for dolls, mostly Barbie, Monster High and similar. I had some Fimo clay at home, in brown and some pastel colors that would work for the donut and the frosting. Even if the brown is rather dark, it can work as a chocolate donut with frosting.

| Used my brush tip smoothen the shapes. |
The process is no rocket science, I made some tiny balls of the brown one and then I made a hole with a suitable brush tip. After that I made the edges a bit smoother and baked the donuts in the oven at 130°C and for about 8 minutes.
While the donuts cooled off, I started to pick out colors for the frosting and used my fingers to make it as flat as I could. Too tiny for a rolling pin. After placing the frosting, some brushes of liquid Fimo clay and decorations on top it was time to bake again. Same degree, but not for so long time as the donuts. I think I had them in the oven for approximately 5 minutes. Total amount of time for these tiny things should not get above 15 minutes. I want to make it more between 10-12 minutes in total. But it all depends on the oven and size of the thing you want to bake.

This was a fun and easy project for those sunny (or even rainy) Sunday afternoons. The level is easy and you can make as many as you want. Time and effort are small.
And here comes some more edited slightly blurry pictures! The daylight over here is more like a empty paper bag during night time. Especially winter time.

| Tea party! Thanks to Alasse for the tiny pots, cups and plates. |

| Vera is one project I had during January. She was fun to mod, paint and make. |
 |
| A yummy donut! |
 |
| But wait...who is this? |

| Ah, it is wild Sage. She seems to have a favourite too. The same one as Vera. |

| Tea party over and what a mess. |
Have a wonderful new week!
Easy peasy, I like little tutes like that Niina, thanks for sharing! Love the photo shoot, it looks like the dolls liked the donuts alright, they ate the bloomin' lot! LOL!

Thank you so much! And they sure did eat those donuts in a hurry, it was yummy. :D Tutorials like these are very fun to do, too. :) Hugs! <3
DeleteWhat a fun party! I am always up for taking tea with friends.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Dorothy! Tea and donuts, cookies and cake are always yummy to have with friends!
DeleteOh these look so delicious and real. I love how you made them. And what a great scale for your dolls. The photos look good too. I particularly love that last one when all there is left is crumbs and empty cups.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteI watched a YouTube video for tips and tricks and an easy way was to use the things you have home. Special things are not needed, so at that point I was happy about my brush tip and white paper, to keep the clay clean. :)
I like the last photo too, inspired by my own tea times and how it can look. :D
They look so cute, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThank you and glad you liked the post! :)
DeleteThey look soooo sweet! :) I like tutorials like this. And your photos are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! So easy to do too and can be used again and again! :)
DeleteWhat great donuts, you've made me feel a bit peckish now!
ReplyDeleteI love how you decorated them, they look very realistic and yes the perfect size for your dolls. :)

Thank you Sharon! I had some Shrovetide buns to keep my peckish away! It is the season for those now. My favourite!
DeleteGreat that you liked the donuts! :)
Hugs!
Aww, they look super cute! I need to try creating more props for my dolls as well :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Lise! It is an easy way to make props for dolls and using clay like this, you can make it in any size and form. :D
DeleteGosh you've got into making fimo stuff! I love the results, donuts looks super yummy. ^w^ <3 No wonder in the end the plates are empty!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, had to try. :) Have bought some fimo clay before, but never gotten into it. But after some cute tutorials I had to try.
