These 2 pictures started the adventure. It's my dream kitchen I found in a magazine a while ago.
I just love the materials and the feel.
After a lot of mathematics I could start with my new pastamachine!!
First rolling the clay, through the machine, on the template and a lot of slicing...
But it's worth it. I still have a lot of work to do (finish sticking the tiles, sanding, grouting and colouring) but at least I can see some progress now.
I also found a very nice blouse in our local charity shop and it was perfect for the sofa I had in mind. This is the sofa so far :
It's the Karlstad sofa from Ikea in 1:12. Just love Ikea, I even worked there for a while on the sofa-department lol!
see you next time!

I'm still in awe over your patience and skill when it come to making tiles and now you make this sofa as well! I love Ikea too and the Karlstad sofa, which was our first sofa. Beautiful work Evelien!
Thank you!!
@ Rosanna: the clay doesn't shrink much, so it works fine. I keep them between 2 boards when drying to keep them flat.
@ Caterina: your right, it's suede. It's works very well.
@ Pubdoll: nice to have a fellow Ikea-lover ;) , the Karlstad is really a nice design.
Thanx for following
have a nice day,
evelien
