I Crafted These Tiny Heirloom Tomato Jars To Add Some Cozy Vibes To My Home

I’ve always been obsessed with food-themed home decor. Recently, I decided to challenge myself to make something that looks fresh from the garden but can actually hold my trinkets (or candles!)

The process involves casting with plaster and carefully hand-painting layers to get that ripe, organic tomato look. It took a lot of patience to get the gradient right, but the result is so satisfying!

If you want to see the full step-by-step tutorial on how to make these, or check out my other creations, take a look here!

    The final look! I tried to mimic the texture of real heirloom tomatoes.

    Here you can see the scale. They fit perfectly in the palm of your hand.

    Work in progress. Adding layers of color to the plaster base is the most satisfying part.

    They work great as storage jars for jewelry or as cozy candle holders.

    Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
