I swear I gained about 6 pounds just on making this little counter. But it was absolutely worth it! It would have been the best to use real wood sheets for the counter, but unfortanely I haven't got any of them. For one it's very expensive and I can order it only from abroad (ridiculously high shipping cost!) and for two so far I couldn't find a carpenter in Hungary who would take on to make me some thin sheets. So I used plywood, and since the sight of the glued layers at the cross-sections was unacceptable for me with this piece I covered the edges with veneer strips. After precise sanding the trick is almost undetectable, I think.
I printed the paper bags onto sketch paper. Sketch paper and my printer don't see eye to eye with each other, so I have to glued the sketch paper onto normal paper on the margins before printing.
Now, would you like a piece of them?

I never fail to come and look at your creations. As always, amazing!
Maravilloso!
I can't even tell you used veneer, actually - well done. And the pastries look delicious!
No words....simply stunning!
J'adore !!!
Oh wow, this is an amazing piece! I think nobody notices the thickness. But just imagine if you can do this with pylwood, what you could do with real wood! Wow!
And I can't believe I've found such an amazing miniaturist so close to me. I'm from Slovenia and I thought that there weren't any people interested in miniatures in this part of Europe. Glad to see I was wrong.
Can't wait to see more of your work!
