A distress ink pad! I wanted one of these for some time.
And some metallic acrylic paints! They're great but unfortunately they don't really show well in the pictures. There were so many colors to choose from! More of these in different colors will definitely be on my shopping list next time I'll be able to get to the shop. I really wanted a darker purple, but they didn't have any darker shades so I took a lighter one instead. These will be perfect for dragons and the dragon scale books!
Cats!! It's amazing what you can find in the toy section of shops! I found these four cats and another bigger one (not suitable for 1:12 scale) for less than 2€!
I think I'll try painting the left one black.... I like the white one, although the eyes aren't very realistic.
And finally, something I managed to make myself... another table with cabriole legs.
And the table painted with three coats of wood stain. Without varnish as of yet, but they are actually this glossy with only stain.
And dragon skin books, had to try out the new metallic colors! Although these are actually a blue-green hue, but I think this picture makes them look blueish....
Both tables with three coats of stain.
They really look a lot better than with only one coat of stain. I love how they turned out!
Well, this weekend we're celebrating my boyfriend's 30th birthday, so I won't be able to get any mini work done. But for next week I already have a couple of ideas that I'll have to try :)
Until next time!
*Poof*
Both tables look great and so do the books. Cute cats. Happy Birthday to your boy friend.

The tables are beautiful! I love working with inks and metallic paint is a must :) The books look so professional! I can't wait to see more of your work.
