Step-by-step instructions for the miniature bakery
Glue the craft blocks together
Start by gluing the craft blocks together to form a stable base and back wall for your miniature bakery. Make sure that the glued joints are tight so that the base frame is stable.
Adding colour accents
Now it's time to decorate the furniture. Use the VBS craft paint to paint the furniture to your taste. This paint is specially developed for handicrafts and provides bright, long-lasting colours. Allow the paint to dry completely before finishing the furniture.
Design the shelves and counter
Use popsicle sticks for the shelves and counter, cut them to size and paint them with the VBS craft paint. These elements give your bakery structure and make optimum use of the space for a realistic look.
Add details
Fill the small bottles with beads to make them look like filled jars of sweets. Paint the white miniature tableware with the same craft paint as before to create a harmonious overall impression.
Modelling treats out of FIMO
Shape small pastry specialities out of FIMO, such as croissants, baguettes, eggs or macarons. FIMO is a mouldable modelling clay that hardens after baking. Bake the moulded pieces in the oven for about 20 minutes at 110 degrees Celsius. Make sure to allow the biscuits to cool completely.
Fixing furniture and decorations
Now glue all the finished furniture and decorative elements in the desired place in your bakery. Use a strong handicraft glue to attach everything securely.
Snow-like decoration
Use decorative snow to enchant the miniature. Sprinkle the snow lightly over the furniture and decorations to make it look like flour. This gives the scene a particularly authentic touch.
Create paper towels from paper
Cut out small diamond-shaped pieces of paper and fold them to resemble miniature towels. Place them in your bakery to give it the finishing touch.
