Black Forest Fruit Cake

Finally at last I have completed something important before I move out of this city. This is, as you see, a black forest fruit cake. But it's not a normal cake, you know. There are treasures once you have cut it.



Okay, it's not a real fruit cake but just a ring box made out of felt. Did the look fool you? :D




My rings. :)


I can't help wanting to cut it. Hehe.

Harddisk Felt Case

I made this because I'm cheap. Buying a real case is too costly for me. But this gives me the satistaction of making something. Not to mention that I was quite happy to discover how to blanket stitch overlapping layers of felt. Lame, I know.

Felt Cake (with strawberry on top)

I made this project during my felt craft rage. It was inspired by one of the wedding gifts that my parents received.

Unfortunately, since I didn't like to follow the exact tutorial, I had to alter a square cake into a round cake. Square cake is easier, especially if you have to insert a box inside it.

But that didn't discourage me, and ta-da, you can see the result of my persistence!

So, if you're interested, here are the basic "ingredients":

felt (any colour that you want your cake to be)
thread and needle, or glue if you're feeling lazy to sew
a small box to put inside the felt.

My box was made out of extra manila paper that I had around which I wrapped with flowery scrap cloth. Recycling? Definitely. :D


Not that neat, but I'm quite satisfied with the result


I use it to store my extra charm loops. Oh, and one of my unused SIM card.
