I present to your attention a tutorial on making miniatures of polymer clay — here are video instructions and description.
We need:
- black polymer clay;
- a wooden blank or any base (metal, glass) on which you can bake similar items;
- pasta machine or rolling pin (you can use a can);
- cutter or cap (diameter in scale 1:12 — 2,5-3 cm);
- wet wipes (to level the surface);
- blade;
- wire cutters and pliers;
- 2 pins to make handles (you can use wire or make handles from polymer clay if there is no wire or pins and tools).

Paddle:
- brown polymer clay;
- template (paper, pencilpen, scissors) size in scale 1:12 — 2,8-3 0.5-0.6 cm;
- pasta machine;
- glass (I use glass from a photo frame);
- dummy knife.

To fill pumpkin (stuffing):
- orange clay;
- beige clay;
- green clay;
- model knife;
- glass;
- dry pastel, red and brown colors;
- water;
- awl;
- blade.

Pumpkins:
- orange clay;
- beige clay;
- gloves (not to leave fingerprints);
- blade or model knife;
- needle with a homemade handle made of polymer clay;
- glass.

To make a miniature I use polymer clay Fimo and Cernit. Bake on a wooden blank for 15 minutes. Gently remove the pan from the wooden workpiece while it is still hot.
By hand I draw a template of a paddle and cut out with a model knife.
Without removing from the glass, bake for 10 minutes.
Food (meat) to fill the pumpkin is baked for 10 minutes.
Pumpkin is baked for 15 minutes.
All stages of baking could be combined into one, taking out the paddle and food (minced meat).

After baking, let all items cool. For sanding use sandpaper. I tone pumpkins with dry pastel. For gluing all the ingredients, I use liquid polymer clay Sculpey. Bake the finished composition for 15 minutes. This miniature requires two stage of baking.
After the items have cooled and hardened, I varnish them.

Thank you for your attention, if you still have questions, I will answer them!
