Your creativity is unbelievable! I cannot believe you pieced together cut up foam board and ended up with this 😲 I love how the pennies oxidized in the floor, the color changing light, the tubes, the surprise function of the room box at the end 👏 This is awesome! Great job

So I just came from your friend at Queen City. Love this! Also subbed. I wish I had the ability because we have so much stuff. My daughter's kids are all adults and there is just a mountain of misc EVERYTHING. Plus all the empty food and pill and Beneful dog food tubs with really colorful pretty lids. Even containers from our weed store lol. None of these places seem to have a recycling reuse process along with their product businesses. I think that's a shame and it should be a thing. A mandatory thing. The pill bottles alone! OMG! I've asked too believe me. Thank you so much for sharing! I have a crapload of old keys, buttons, electrical waste like cords and adapters. Old computers and stuff. Overwhelmed.😮🙏🏼🥰⚙️🎩⛓️🗝️ PS I adore that coat! I'm looking for a long black one at thrift places. And that secret compartment!

I'll tell you, my hoarding stash is a little out of control myself! It becomes a little impossible sometimes to not see trash as something I could use. I am lucky that we do have several recycle places around us for the items that can't go in the recycle bins. Projects like this really help me use some of it though! Thank you for subbing to my channel! I look forward to hearing from you more! The jacket I'm wearing came from a thrift store too! I love finding stuff there!

Really fun, with some neat ideas. I think you could have toned down/dirtied up the lace. It jumps out too much. But that's just me. Love the table! I want one with art tools instead of makeup.

This turned out so cool and I really loved how the pennies tarnished as well. I love happy surprises like that (as long as it goes with the theme lol)! I also loved your solution to the tree cutout with the tape and turning that into sheet metal. The result was fantastic! Too bad about Queen City Minis video😟 I hope she can get the footage back!

I totally agree about the pennies! I love when things turn out ok, I had a little anxiety in the beginning as it kept getting uglier! lol. I know what a bummer about QCM, she sent the card to a professional so hopefully they can recover the file and she can make her video.

Hello sweetie 😘 it's looking so cool 😎 I lourve it vert much. Silly ?? Can you tell me what's gesso? And what uses does it have I keep seeing 👀 people use it but not heard of it except on utub lol xxxxx
@WhitneyLaBrie
@WhitneyLaBrie 2 жыл бұрын
usually gesso is a white paint binding substance with an additive like chalk. I haven't really used it in miniatures but I've used it in painting on canvas, it's great for building up paint for great depth. For my miniatures projects I do use Mod Page a lot because it acts as a glue and a sealer and I can add water for scenic glue..super versatile product.
