thin spacers (I used 1.5 mm thick wooden lollipop sticks)
JEM strip cutters - no. 1 (or you can cut the strips by hand)
7 mm heart cutter (you can use a small round cutter instead)
Flower paste (gum paste):
brown
dark ivory
grey
Edible glue
Dust colours:
brown
gold

12.
Make the hinges and the door knob. To make the hinges I used a no. 1 JEM strip cutter (you can cut the strips out by hand). Emboss the circles with a 1 mm piping nozzle.
To make the door knob: Cut out a strip slightly longer and wider than the hinges. Emboss the line above the eyes with a 7 mm heart cutter (or use a small round cutter; press at an angle).
Emboss the eyes with a 2 mm piping nozzle. To make the keyhole cut out a 2 mm circle (with the piping nozzle) and make three cuts with a scalpel (the paste needs to be quite firm to make clean cuts, so leave it to dry for a few minutes if there's need).
Roll a 4 mm ball and stick it on. Roll a thin sausage. Pinch it in the middle and stick it on above the eyes. Leave the elements to dry for a few minutes.
