Kitchen Shadow Box

This is something I thought about doing years ago when I picked up a few miniatures at a craft store. This year I finally decided that I am going to get this done. And I think the timing was right because I have just recently learned things that helped me to create some the items and background for this.

The hand made items are made with polymer clay, wood, and resin. They include the mortar and pestle, apples in a dish, pie, pickles, and the table and everything on it. The brick wall was done with a stencil, modelling paste, and paint. Other thing were more improvised, like the popsicle stick floor, the little wood pile, and I'll let you guess at what the stove pipe is made of. The stove is an old pencil sharpener that belonged to my granny. 

My dad helped me make the box. The back of it is the back of a picture frame and the frame and glass fit on the front of the box. This way the glass will keep the dust out but I can still take it off the add more things later.
