Fake Cake Exhibition (part 2) ;

   Happy Valentine's Day, everyone ♡♡♡
Please just enjoy the pictures of  'part 2' of the "Fake Cake Works" made from material called 'Modeling Paste' (Thick Acrylic Gel blended with Marble Dust).

*Lovely Sweets, Dresses and Tiaras*

*Even a 'Car' and 'Racing Motorboat' *

*Daruma; 達磨､ダルマ*

            My old friend may remember about my Daruma post.

Bodhidharma who was a Buddhist monk lived during the 5th/6th century CE said to have done 9 years of zazen.  This doll shows how he'd done his training and its unique rounded shape allows you “Fall down seven times, get up eight” which represents persistence and never give up your dreams.

About filling Daruma-san's eyes

We fills in one eye upon setting the goal, then the other after fulfilling it later. One explanation how this custom started says that in order to motivate Daruma-san to grant your wish, you promise to give him full sight once the goal is accomplished.

 

I hope you will have a wonderful weekend.

Thank you very much for your sweet visit, I'll see you soon;

Fake Cake Exhibition (part 1) ;

     I've heard about the 'Fake Cake Exhibition' through local TV news. 

It was held at my late parents' birth-city an hour drive from my house. Don't you think this topic is really timely for coming Valentine's day:-)  These works were made by material called 'Modeling Paste' (Thick Acrylic Gel blended with Marble Dust).  

I took many pictures, so please let me show you the rest of them on 14th; some of them are feminine type works .

At the entrance, gate to the sweet world;

These works impressed me the most; to my friends in foreign countries ♡♡♡



Table made with fake sweets;

*Cute and Lovely Works*  And many critters even though they were fake cakes p:-)

For 'Good Fences':   In front of the hall this exhibition was held, this sculpture was placed as if it is a gate♪

For 'Saturday Critters':    Before enjoying the exhibition, we had lunch at my cousin's restaurant. Before leaving there, I found this sparrow looking at me on the tree in the parking lot. Seemed a bit tired and cold, might have been asking me help.

(I wish you'll enjoy part 2 of my next post)

Linking this post to "Good Fences", "Saturday's critters", "Camera-Critters,"MosaicMonday" and "Our World Tuesday",

Thank you very much for your sweet visit, I'll see you soon;
