Dollhouse Miniature Brownie Baking Scene

 The time has come to make another baking scene! Here are the instructions if you purchased a kit from me, or would like to try this yourself!

Brownie Baking Scene     

The base may have a hole and writing on it. Just cover them with an item, no one else will know!

Cut out the printables that you want to use, fold and glue. You have a choice of using the brownie mix box

and milk, or go all out and use flour, baking soda, sugar, and butter! Be sure to leave some flaps for glueing,

not all the items have clearly defined flaps.





You can also use packing tape on the milk  to make it more realistic. White glue still works on top of the packing tape when glueing.



There are 2 books you can make, with plenty of book covers to choose from. Sand the straw piece on each end to make it flat.






Wrap the cocoa label around the straw and glue.
Glue paper circles on each end of straw.



To make a spatulaCut the small piece of thick foil (from a tea light) using the cardstock template, cutting slits where indicated.

Fold (in half) along dotted line. open it again, Place pointy end of toothpick between the foil, and bend shorter

end of foil around toothpick. The other side is folded around the first.











Use a black sharpie to make lines on foil to make it look like a spatula.

Tea towel / kitchen cloth: You can use the gingham cloth as is, or glue or sew a hem. There is a cardstock rectangle to help you either

glue or sew, which is slightly smaller than the fabric. You can iron it around the template to make a crisp fold. 




Sewing is quick and easy, just use thread close to the colour so it blends into the fabric.




Baked Brownies: Take your foam pieces, cut them if desired into squares with an xacto knife and steel ruler. You have a choice between white foam or black foam. (insulation foam found in an insulation kit for windows)


      Apply masking tape to the tongue depresser, so sticky side is up, and stick your brownies on it
      leaving space around each one to paint.


 Mix ½ drywall powder (found in the oil bottle), 3 drops dark brown acrylic paint and 2 or 3 drops of glue in the mixing cup. Paint the foam squares. 






Icing: Use lighter brown acrylic paint and white glue for your chocolate icing. Paint this on the top of brownies.        

Sprinkles or nuts:  While your icing is still wet, add sprinkles or chopped up nuts (piece of tan clay in bag with

sprinkles. Simply chop up the clay with knife to make “nut pieces”. Glaze can be applied after it has dried for

more shine. 

Batter: Mix the remaining ½ drywall powder with 2 or 3 drops glue, and 2 or 3 drops dark brown acrylic paint.  Try to

make it the consistency of batter. Put it in the bowl, cut and place the fancy wooden stick in the batter (it will

appear to be a wooden spoon when it's stuck in the icing). For extra shine, use a glaze after it is dried.


Make eggs from the  white clay and small amount of yellow clay. (roll into balls and pinch slightly on one end

to form an egg shape) Bake your clay items for a maximum of 10 minutes in a 275 oven.

Cooking oil: Add a very tiny drop of yellow food colouring to either distilled water or glycerin to the now empty oil bottle.

Mix. Glue the top on the oil jar. Cut out and glue on an oil label.


Oven mitt: Place the mitt template on the wrong side of fabric and trace out the shape.

Flip the template over, and trace again.


(optional: use needle and some thread to embellish your oven mitt)



Cut out the mitts, and apply a small amount of glue along the inside edges. Put the mitt together and press

gently.


After it is dry, glue or sew rikrack along bottom (wrist).



     Arrange all items on board, and when you're happy, glue it in place. Have fun arranging your scene.
