Halloween Miniatures Compilation Video!

To celebrate Halloween, we've just put together a new compilation video showcasing some of the Halloween miniatures that we made this year.

It's so "hot off the presses" that at the time of writing, some of the pieces are still available either on eBay or Etsy !

Since the beginning of October, we've created over 40 new Halloween pieces. We've been overwhelmed by all of the kind comments, emails and messages we've received about them.

If you've bought any of these pieces, we hope you enjoy seeing them immortalised in the movie!

Turn up your sound and enjoy!

Freaky (Halloween) Friday!

Lunchtime today and I was just finishing up something in the workshop when I noticed something moving out of the corner of my eye...

Myserious Black CatLooking up I saw this black cat...

The only thing is, we've been living in our small isolated village for over three years now, know pretty much everyone here and...NOBODY HAS A BLACK CAT...

GULP!

Final Halloween Miniatures....

Anyone wandering the streets of a typical French town this week would be hard-pressed to find any evidence that it's Halloween this weekend. The French don't really "do" Halloween, but are we going to let that stop us joining in the Halloween fun?

No!

We've just finished the final selection of Halloween miniatures for this year. Here are a couple of sneak peaks...

We'll post them on eBay later this evening where you'll be able to see more photos of these pieces and the rest of the items we made.

A reminder that there are still a few Halloween dessert pieces available in our Etsy store! Don't miss out!

Steak and Chips!

"Chips", "French Fries", "Freedom Fries", "Pommes-Frites", call 'em what you will, nothing goes as well with a grilled steak!

Between making tons of Halloween miniatures and preparations for the upcoming "Paris Création" show, we've been trying to catch up with some commissions this week. It's been nice to work on some savoury items for a change! By the way, if you're still waiting for something, please be patient, we'll get round to you before too long...

One item requested was a "Steak-frites with salad and pepper sauce" which is shown below. Happy to report that the buyer was pleased with the result!

Talking of satisfied buyers, a big thank you to Rosanna from Genoa who has thoughtfully taken the time to post on her blog about her recent first Ebay win!

Even MORE New Halloween Miniatures!!!

To think that at the start of the month we said to each other that we'd probably not bother too much with Halloween this year...

Now we can't stop!!!
