It certainly does look foamy! I'm thinking I need at least a couple of poured beer in steins for the bar in the Bohemian inn. Where did you get the steins?

I Googled miniature beer steins and found an Etsy seller here in Georgia with beer steins already filled with beer. The foam doesn't look as good as yours in the photo, but I can always add a little extra. SinnysMiniArt I ordered a half dozen. Now I'll need a half dozen bar customers to drink them! Maybe one or two will be in the kitchen. The cooks need some incentive to keep on cooking, eh? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Posted May 1, 2018 Author Share Posted May 1, 2018 Thank you Clove, this has been a LOT of fun to make. Started like an Idea back when we were taking a two day class and deloped from there into this. Almost Done Now , need a few more items to Call it Done for real, as a bead mix in orange/blueish shades, not sure if Aqua or turqoise jade would describe the blue shades I am looking for(so that I can re-do the bead Wall hanging with those) some geometrical patterns ribbon for pillows and maybe even Wall decor. Some small polischef pebble mix for the exterior. Then to finish some more Cacti for the exterior as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
