I took up making miniature food as a hobby in the summer of 2018 to relieve stress and figured it would be something I did for a few weeks. Fast forward to half a decade later and I have a successful Etsy shop, a wonderful community of other miniaturists on Instagram, and I’ve been published in miniatures magazines in the US and internationally! I could never have foreseen all the places this random hobby has taken me and the best part is that I’m still having fun. Find me on Instagram @lavidachiquita and say hello!
