- Hi friends! Welcome to all the new subs! I’m so happy you’re here!
Today I’m sharing how I make faux breads you can use to stage vignettes in your own home!
This is a pretty simple project for beginning crafter! I’ll be making more of these to sell in my booth and in craft fairs.
Coffee Grunge Recipe:
1 cup instant coffee grounds or used coffee grounds
1/2 cup hot water
1 TBS cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
1 TBS vanilla
Combine all ingredients and shake well. Keep in fridge and warm up when needed for projects!
We'd love to hear from you!

Just found your Chanel and I love your bread it’s so realistic. I love faux food and I’ve done some but I’m still learning. I love the calmness of you voice also. Do you think you may do more faux food I would love to watch and you have a new subscriber. ❤
Hi and welcome!!! I will absolutely be sharing more faux foods! I love making all kinds of faux food, and I love teaching others how to do them as well!! Is there anything in particular you’d like to see?
@@TheCuratedHome Anything really. I like it all.
@@rhonda3541 I’ll be sure to have some posted soon for you!!! I’m thinking of making some faux 4th of July treats!
Thanks for sharing. I hear that if you lightly sand the foam first, the paint or grunge will adhere better on a pores surface vs the shiny surface the foam ends up after drying.
Thank you for the tip! 🥰
Anytime! I made some bread and sanded them slighty and it sure did help @@TheCuratedHome
I'm a new subscriber from Melanie's channel!
Hi and welcome! So happy to have you!!!! ♥️🥰
I might be related to your nieghbor lol. Enjoy making the faux bread. I'm just learning. Our homedepot is not stocking any 1 gallons of spackling but foam was stocked. I even looked in walmart for the 1 gallon spackling they just aren't stocking it. Thought I'd share that.
That’s so cool if you are, we have the best neighbors, they’re more like family than neighbors really♥️ I haven’t gone to restock my spackle or foam so thanks for the heads up! 🥰
Great job!!!!! 🥖🥐🍞 I’m going to try this ❤
You should! It’s a great little project! ♥️🥰
Hello...Melanie says hi! New Sub.
I there and welcome!!!! I adore Melanie and her breads turned out better than mine!!! ♥️🥰
Looks great
Thank you! 🍂🥰
@@TheCuratedHome I have a quick question. Do you have to seal the loaves if there's no oats or real food on them? And if you do seal them won't that omit the grunge smell?
@@brendawelch3846 It’s personal preference really. I actually don’t seal mine with or without anymore. I found that the oats and any embellishment will hold with modge podge. You can go back over it with additional layers of a spray modge podge if you are concerned about fall out but it works fine without. And yes the smell would change with a sealer, you’d have to let the sealer really cure then apply a layer of grunge and spices to get the smell back, it shouldn’t change the color, it should just help the scent return. I hope that helps!
@@TheCuratedHome Yesssss thank you so much. I had bought a loaf from a gal n Etsy & she used a heavy clay. That thing molded all the way through & fell apart. So I was afraid by using the oats or whatever of it molding. I really like the look of your breads. I had made some loaves & after watching you yesterday I mixed up the grunge & used oats on one & the corncob bedding that I use for fake nuts on one. I really like the way they turned out. I'm so glad I found your channel & will be watching more of your videos. Thank you so much for your help.
@@TheCuratedHome I just finished my breads & I love the way they turned out. Thanks so much for your help in answering my questions & your fabulous tutorials
You could totally make these and sell them!!❤
I’m actually making them and my pies to sell. I’ll be selling at local craft fairs this fall!!
Awesome 👏
This is absolutely amazing, JoAnn. I have never seen anything like it. Love it! They really do look good enough to eat. Brilliant.
Thank you! It was so fine to make I love being creative!
Wow, those loafs look so real, fabulous job! Thx for taking us through the process. Happy Sunday! Xoxo ❤👌 🥖 🍞 🧺
Thanks Liz, Happy Sunday!! ♥️🐾🥰
Jo Ann the breads look wonderful and so realistic. Great job. Love them in the baskets ❤️. Back in our Craft show days John and I always used hair dryers so we could get things done quicker when we were painting. Kiss Maggie for me. Love and blessings ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Miss Jean! I don’t know what I’d do without that hairdryer lol! 🥰♥️🐾
Good morning, Joann and Maggie! This looks like so much fun. They look good enough to eat. Have a great week. Big hugs.
Thanks Debbie, hugs from Maggie and me! 🥰🐾
New subscriber here 😃 your bread is absolutely perfect 🤩 just what I was looking to make!!!!
Thank you
Can’t wait for the Father’s Day video to see what all your dad made you!!! I lost mine in 2015 miss him SOOO much....
Hi Linda and welcome!!! I’m so happy you liked this video and you’ll have to share with me how your bread turns out when you make some! I know how you feel when you say you miss your dad, mine passed in 2019 and it never hurts less, you just find ways to have peace and enjoy those precious memories. Huge hugs sweet new friend ♥️
You hair looks so vibrant!! 😊 you look amazing. 👏🏼 congratulations on all of the new friends that have joined! They will love you. This tutorial was great. I swear everything you make always looks amazing in the end. ❤
Thank you so much!♥️ I always get a bit nervous when I try a new project because it’ always looks rough to start with and I wonder if it’s actually going to work lol but it does😊
Love the way they turned out. I have made these before and I learned two things from this video. First being the type foam you used. Mine was shiny and had to sand before painting. It was a real pain. And the second was to put cardboard down in the bottom of the pan to keep it from puffing on the bottom. Thank you for sharing!
That’s awesome! I’m so happy to hear my tips helped. I didn’t like the sanding so I’m never using that shiny foam again! Thanks for watching! ♥️🥰
Love them in the baskets!! Beautiful vignettes! Greatest job❤❤❤
Thank you!!! They are so much fun to style!
Yummy! I have a mini glass bread & pie pan from my childhood, I will use to make these. These were absolutely great. Hope mine turn out half as good. Thanks
Hi there! I’m sure they will turn out perfect!! What a great idea to use your treasures from your childhood to make these and have them out where you can enjoy them!!! ♥️🫶🏻🥰
I don’t even remember the last time my nails were done 🤭
Lol it’s definitely not a priority of mine! 💅🏻😂
Hi JoAnn! um, these look so awesome! So real!!!!! OMG these would look so pretty in a basket on a table just as you had styled it!!!! I made a different kind of bread this week hahahaha as you have seen, but this is awesome! You are so talented!!!
Thank you!!! My family would rather have your bread for sure lol…mine just looks pretty 😂
This is amazing!! You are so creative and I think you do fantastic at crafting videos. I was so happy to see you use the grunge mix, I just discovered the mix recently and have been wanting to try using it on a project. Your bread looks good enough to eat. I’m looking forward to seeing what your dad has made. Sorry I’m late watching this video it’s been a crazy busy week and weekend for me. Hugs 🤗 ❤❤❤
I wish I had started using the grunge mix sooner! What a game changer for primitive/country crafting!!!
What sealer did you use?
You can't get the foam out of non stick pans. It actually pops right out of the aluminum ones though. Been making these for YEARS.
If you poke the breads W a skewer as they're drying and PUSH the excess air & foam up through the hole (I do this every 30 minutes), it stops it from expanding in the pans and the bottom stays nice and flat. Then you just pop the excess off the little hole & it'll be sticky so you use that to cover the hole when it's almost dry, usually after a few hours. And you can pop them right out of the aluminum and you can actually reuse them, I do anyway at least until they get to misshapen, lol. Hope this helps.
Oh, and wood stain makes it look far more real than paint 😁
Don't worry about the stain smell, you can grunge it up and smell is gone. I learned all these things from old old prim blogs no longer even around anymore or the ones that are have taken their tutorials down or poster them for sale on etsy. And by trial and error after I noticed a lot of the blogs were gone 😭 Lol, I got into primitive style over 14 yrs ago and couldn't afford to buy the stuff as it's really expensive, even back then. I've made primitive fake food for almost that long so I've tried it all, lol!
Oh, and corn cob bedding is better to use for nuts if you don't want to use real food. I don't use real, it's just too much work and not guaranteed. My BFF is the prim expert, lol, it's who got me into it and she's bought stuff with real food on it and it was sealed... It all got bugs. 😳
At around 9:25 the second bread you pick up has that squiggly strip of foam coming out the side and you said it did really well.... When you poke it w a hole, that squiggly stuff seeping out is what you're doing, but you're forcing it out. There was probably a little space there for the foam and air to escape and that's why it wasn't as blown out as the other one that's all expanded with air. If you poke a hole (just one) and keep opening it during the curing process and keep pushing the excess up and out, they'll be perfectly flat on the bottom and sides. 😁
Great tips!!! Thanks so much!!♥️🥰
You definitely have great tips!!! I never thought to use wood stain, what a great idea!!
I’m a new subscriber. Your breads turned out awesome. I’ve made breads but they were mini loafs. I used the glass loaf dish from the dollar tree fall ones. I put fake nuts using hamster gravel. I just made a faux bunt cake and was using caulk for the drizzle. I usually make it with mid podge, caulk and white paint. I taught using just caulk would be better , I still made a mess 😏😏. What is the slick you used for your drizzle and where did you get it? That turned out beautiful and didn’t look as hard to get out as the caulk was.
Hi there!! I use white puff paint for all my drizzles, you’re right it is way easier than caulk! Whenever you want a drizzled affect just go with the puff paint, the light brown is a perfect chocolate color and you can use red and green for iced Christmas cookies….so many options! I get my puff paint from Hobby Lobby in the T-shirt section of the store. You’ll have to let me know how your next project goes!! 🥰♥️
@@TheCuratedHome I sure will, thank you so much.
You probably won't see this since the video is 6 months old, but I have been watching several faux bread recipes lately to go with my fall decor and I like your recipe the best out of all that I've seen. I have a question. The faux drizzle that you used, was that white paint? I just found your channel while searching for faux bread and I'm so glad I did. I'll be watching more of your videos and I'll go back and watch some older ones also.
Hi there!! I use puff paint for a faux drizzle because it will hold its shape, acrylic paint lays flat. I get mine from Hobby Lobby in the T Shirt paint section. ☺️ I’m so happy to hear you were able to use my video to make your bread!!! ♥️♥️♥️
@@TheCuratedHome Thank you so much. 🌹
I’m back watching this again Joann😊 I am finally going to try making some, I figured today is a great day for it. What was the spray sealer you used at the end to seal them after adding all the goodies?
Hi there! I used modge podge for some which is what I preferred, the Krylon crystal clear sealer is also what I use that works well, I just don’t like the smell or the lack of control, you need to be careful it doesn’t blow your embellishment off. Can’t wait to see how yours turns out!!!
These are very nice, I am going to try the gaps and crack. I use hamster bedding for my nuts on my fake bakes.
Thank you! 😊 When I first started doing fake bakes, I had fellow creators suggest many things but I don't recall hamster bedding, you've peeked my curiosity and I am going to have to experiment now!! 💕😊
@@TheCuratedHomeyou can even paint it, for different colors. I make all kinds of fake food so I'll paint them brown for the chocolate crunch look, or pink for strawberry crunch. I learned about corn cob bedding YEARS ago for fake candy apples that are very popular now. I just wish all these video tutorials were around when I started primitive decorating over 14 yrs ago! Lol, the stuff was far too expensive to buy in the prim shops that were around at that time.
Could u use a little oil n the pan??
Great question…I think spraying some cooking spray or oil could help with removing it from the pans! Id say give it a try and see! I’ll definitely try it the next time I make some! ♥️🥰
What is the white drizzle you use on the top of your bread?
It’s just white puff paint. I get mine from Hobby Lobby. Puff paint is perfect for any faux icing drizzle!!
@@TheCuratedHome Thank you for your response. Your videos are amazing :)
Would someone answer me?? Could I use a little oil ????
I answered your question when you first asked…i said yes, give it a try.
