It's very pretty, I'm wondering if she makes it from the same stuff I use to make my cake toppers.

Fimo is exactly what I was thinking too Gaile. I expect the beads are plastic, and the birdie bits are fimo or sculpey or something similar.

Those are lovely too.
Fimo is polymer clay which is a type of plastic, I guess?

Fimo is a polymer clay which starts off soft and pliable so it can be molded into many different shapes. It doesn't need firing like clay, instead you can cook it in a domestic oven at a much lower temperature. The heat causes a chemical reaction to the clay which causes it to set in it's new shape permanently. It feels more like clay to the touch when set, and has no shine like plastic. I make my living from modelling personalised cake toppers from it

No you don't need molds, you can model it freehand which is how I use it because every model is unique. |
