"arts and crafts" news and stories

Trying to lose a little weight by cutting back on fast food and eating smaller portions? Now you can, literally.

A very crafty woman responded to a "craft challenge" and created a teeny tiny Splenda-packet-sized tray of fast food. Tiny replicas of food are nothing new, but when the replicas are made with real food and are actually edible, that's quite an achievement! The craftser used tiny pickles, tomatoes, and the innermost rings of onions, but made the bun, the burger patty, and French fries herself. Her husband fashioned the tray from clay. The photo here shows just how small the entire tray is, but a super close-up of the tiny burger on the craftster forum is incredible. You would never guess that the burger fits on your fingertip.

Thanks for the tip, Candace!
