One Sixth Sense

I’m always a bit jealous about all the great miniatures dollhouse collectors can get in 1:12 scale. I love all the mini food props in polymer clay. I finally found an artist that makes beautiful mini food for our girls in 1:6 scale.

The company called One Sixth Sense and they sell their creations on Etsy. Here are a few of my favorites:

Shrimp Cocktail with 8 Jumbo Shrimps $28.00

Lemon Souffle in White Ceramic Ramekin $7.50

Pastry wrapped pear with spiced raspberry sauce $16.00

Clam chowder in bread bowl with protruding spoon. $16.50

Wine poached pear with vanilla bean ice cream. $16.50

Wine, bread, cheese, and grapes set. $47.00

Wine, bread, meat and cheese set. $47,00

all in perfect 1:6 scale.
