This
week for Trash to Treasure Thursday I thought I would show you
another little trick that has been around for years. I had forgotten
all about this until it was mentioned on one of the online mini
groups I am a member of. I am not sure why it slipped my mind but I
should have shared it a long time ago.
Coriander
seeds should be fairly easy to get your hands on. I know it is used
in cooking a lot around my house. If you aren't familiar with it in
the seed form you might know the fresh herb as cilantro, which is a
fairly common herb in several styles of cooking.
You
really only need a few seeds for your dollhouse display so hopefully
you have some of these in the kitchen cabinet if not ask your friends
they may have them.
As
with any real food product in the dollhouse you will need to be on
the watch for critters of all kinds that decide you have provided
these for them. Just check on them regularly and it should be fine.
You
might also try sealing the seeds into the bowl with some matte finish
sealer like Mod Podge. I think that will help keep things out of your
display.
For
a bowl you can see from the video you can use just about anything, I
couldn't find a bowl today but a wooden button did a fine job. Just
check your stash of buttons, bead and wooden shapes to see what you
come up with.
wicked cool! thanks
