Adding the Miniatures to the Witch's Den - Fairy Tale Magical Mystery Tower


Hello everyone,

The weather here in Malta is getting warmer and warmer and in a few weeks the children will start their summer holidays. Can't wait to spend the days with them. Have worked some more on the Fairy Tale tower especially in the Witch's Den. I am trying really hard to capture the scenes that I want. Have also made some new miniatures. I also want to welcome a new follower to my blog Joanne Spencer. WELCOME!

So as you know the Witch's Den is mostly based on Disney's motion picture Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Have seen this movie as long as I remember and well I know it by heart. To make this project I still went back to it for reference just to capture what I wanted. It is not easy as it is based in a dungeon and my little tower is far from a dungeon. 

So firstly I have added more miniatures to add to my shelving and in the right places like the fire place, shelf and table. All items have been done by me with polymer clay and the glass canisters have been filled with clay minis and  polymer clay liquid.

I have worked mostly on the table to capture certain scenes from Snow White. I have found a blue empty glass which fitted in perfectly and managed to make it look bubbly and foamy. It's not perfect but I like it.

I have also made another Spell book with quotes and spells from various motion Disney's Motion Pictures; such as Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Tangled and Cinderella. I love how the book turned out and it's definitely something that I will hold on to. I have opened it on the Poisoned apple spell and the Peddler's Disguise Spell which both are featured in Snow White.

And here is how the table is looking so far. I still need to add my witch at work but haven't found the right one so far.

I am really pleased how it turned out. Here are some pictures how it is looking so far in the tower. I am really happy with it. Raquel really loves it. From the two rooms even if it is darker than the princess' room I am proud to say that it is my favorite.  It reminds me so much of my child hood watching Snow White and the miniatures that I made are probably the pictures that have made quite an impression on me at the time when I was still a child.

I hope you all like it. I guess most of this room now is ready. I don't think there is much to add except for the witch. I have tried to capture the most important facts of the story. 

Also I wanted to let you know that I have added some new Hand painted miniatures and some new spooky polymer clay minis in my Etsy shop. Please do have a look. My Miniature World Shop at Etsy.
