Some red hot chili peppers


Otto has been taken for a walk, paint has dried and I'm quite pleased with the result of my miniature chilis. Maybe an other coat of paint is needed tomorrow and then, who knows, Mr and Mrs Oiva will make so Chili con carne!

Very little to tell...

... and nothing really to show. There has been no progress with my miniature project lately, so what can I say? Now that I've been back to work for four weeks I've realize there is not much time (or energy) for 1:12 world. In 1:1 life there has been some progress though! I sow some chili seeds in the end of February and have grown the plants on our balcony. In the beginning of this week I noticed that finally the first chilis are beginning to blush and today I found one perfectly red chili pepper for use! Not bad for six month's 'work'!
Inspired by this wonder of nature I decided to try to make some miniature chilis. How difficult could it be?? The answer is: very! Such a simple form, but to make it so tiny, it's not my cup of tea really. Anyway, now I've painted my tiny chilis and after taken Otto out for a walk I hope the paint has dried and there's hopefully something to show you...
