The Swedish Dala Horse (Dalahäst) is one of my favorite shapes, and I've used it quite a lot in my artwork.
The other day, Anabela stopped in to pick up some fabric, bringing with her the most amazing Dala cake pans! They're so cute! It's only been a couple of days, but I've been dying to use them.
This morning I made a batch of raspberry kefir muffins, and used a bit of the batter to make a tiny Dala Horse cake. I'm saving it for Chris, (as delicious as it looks!), because it's exactly one year until our wedding day today, (which means five more days until our 6-year anniversary!).
Anabela, thanks for the sweet pan! It works like a charm, and I can't wait to use it again! xo
oh, I love the Dala horse shape as well :) Sadly, I don't bake well and so I have to stick with my rubber stamp Dala horse for paper projects.
ReplyDeleteCute! Do you have any photos of it?
ReplyDeleteAnabela got these pans at IKEA. I wish I'd gotten their wooden horses while they were still in stock!
have you ever seen 'Kitchen Stories' it involves a Dala Horse and is a simple but beautiful film! a must see!
ReplyDeletelove the blog, thanks!
Camilla, I haven't, but I'll be sure to rent it! Thanks for mentioning it.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is lovely too! I've been interested in trying to work on rabbit skin gesso for a little while now, and would be interested in any tips you may have!
Oh, cute! I'm so glad you're getting use out of them already!! xo
ReplyDeleteAnabela! They work like a dream! Tea date one day?
ReplyDeleteYes, please!! I feel like I should do a "studio visit" and take pictures! So much amazing stuff in there.
ReplyDeleteAww! You're welcome over any time! And please bring your camera! We'll make it official, (then have tea and cake! haha!)
ReplyDeleteLove it!!
ReplyDeleteI like the dala horse too. It's a beautiful shape
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to email you to tell you how much I love my fabric and prints and thank you for the wonderful pencil drawing you sent along. So thoughtful and sweet. I've been trying to find frames for them all.
I want to buy up even more of your lovely things
Nancy! It's nice to hear from you! I'm so glad you liked your things! I hope you have a lot of fun making something out of the fabric!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a cosy thing to do. Fine pictures.
