51.  CAKE DESIGNER TABLE

Manuela Michieli                 Thursday 1p-9p                   $275

​

Creating this 1:12 scene will teach you different skills.
As it happens in all of my workshops, but most definitely in this one, every item has been carefully chosen to teach how to use a material or to learn a specific technique that I am sure you will treasure in the future for creating original miniatures by your own.
For this reason different materials will be used: polymer clay, paper, thin metal foil, dimensional paint etc. 
Particularly attention will be given to some new creative materials on the market and a special care will be given in creating unbreakable very tiny details, such as flowers.  
Besides creating tools from scratch, IGMA Artisan Silvia Cucchi has kindly given us a few others that she has created, along with her real turning cake turnable.
Everything needed (table, materials, tools and accessories) to create the scene you see in the picture is included into the kit that will be given each student.
Beginners are very welcome, teacher will guide in the making of this miniature scene step by step.
Please feel free to bring you own basic set of tools if you wish (small scissors, pointed tweezers, xacto knife, a small paintbrush) and a box for safe travel bringing your table home.
