Pretty Bird Bakery by Connie Littell
What a fantastic bakery scene! So many yummy breads and pastries in the Pretty Bird Bakery (and displayed in a variety of new and old pieces: a couple not mentioned in the text below are the new 1:12 Kitchen Cabinet (with the doors left off) and the Shop Counter as a check-out station).
Here’s a bit of the text from Connie’s blog post to get us started:
I love it when I get the opportunity to play with new products from Alpha Stamps and today’s project used quite a few. The new 10×8 Counter Room Box has a built in shelf across the rear wall that I turned into a bakery. I decided to go with a modern layout and decorated it using brick, wood and tile papers with craft sticks painted black for the trim.
This Counter Room Box comes with a 2.5 inch deep built-in shelf across the rear wall making it a terrific setting for all types of settings, particularly retail space.
I used two of the Arch Top Facade Bookcase – Short for storage on each side of another new piece — the Bread Rack. This display rack is the same width as the Arch Top Facade Bookcase so you could easily use 3 bookcases across the counter if you have no use for a bread display in your project.
The Bread Rack is like a bookcase with angled shelves as you can see here. What I love about this piece is it could be used in a setting like a farmer’s market or corner store as a standalone shelf to display all kinds of things.
A bakery display shelf obviously needs loaves of bread! All of the molds I used for this bakery project came from Alpha Stamps. A few of them are older ones I had on hand and a bunch are brand new, like the Mixed Bread & Croissant Silicone Mold. I started by filling every cavity of the mold with paper clay and let it dry. Once unmolded, I was able to select the ones I wanted to use and then made multiples of those.
The one set of treats I made using polymer clay instead of paper clay were the cupcakes. I made two flavors — lemon and chocolate. What’s great about these new Mini Silicone Cupcake Molds is that they can go right in the oven. The mold comes with cupcake liners and frosting. I added a layer of ‘cake’ using polymer clay textured with a toothbrush. They are displayed on Mini Cookie Sheets.
Read more (and see tons more photos) on Connie’s blog post (with more details about all the bread loaves she made — and the new 3-Tier Cupcake Stand)! Here’s her supply list (all in today’s sale, too)!
