Learn how to make miniature bottles using mold putty filled with hot glue or resin. I printed labels from Etsy. I also show how to make bottles even if you don't have mold putty or a printer.
I have lots of projects planned ranging from abandoned miniatures, furniture makeovers, accessories, kits and Dollhouse Miniatures in multiple scales. I also have a large Harry Potter build planned for 1" scale.

What a great idea! Resin gets expensive too so using hot glue is a good cheaper alternative

Thank you! Ara from Bentley House Minis made much more detailed molds and even cast a milk jug with a handle.

Easy, great ideas. Cutting out pictures from industrial catalogs is genius! I think hot glue sticks come in different colors now, could save some time painting. Thanks!

Thank you :) I always like to explain how to make something even if you don't have all the materials I use. Where there's a will, there's a way. You can make minis from anything.

Hello, I just found your videos yesterday and I knew I had to subscribe. Once I saw your Abandoned Lab video and how much of that you made from your own imagination I thought, this lady knows things. I normally restore, Lesney Matchbox Toys or Dinky Toys but I've always had an interest in minatures and doll houses. Your lab is great and these bottles are pretty cool. I'll be watching more of your videos and learning.

These turned out great! And perfect timing too...I'm starting to work on the bathroom in my dollhouse and need to make some bottles for it. I almost sent you a message earlier this week because I was trying to stain a Chrysnbon kit and couldn't get the paint to stick. I finally figured it out by adding a bit of mod podge to the mix. :)

@queencityminis Жыл бұрын

That's awesome! I'm sure the bathroom will turn out great. Make sure you visit Little Gretchen's channel. She has several videos making bathroom accessories.

Love them🥰 I made the same mistake with not sealing the paper first..lol but quickly learned...I think it makes a difference coloring both sides bc it makes the paper look and feel older. I'm gonna have to try some of that mold putty!

@queencityminis Жыл бұрын

Thank you! I definitely recommend mold putty. I've made so many molds and I'm only halfway through the bottles. It lasts forever and it's really useful.

Hey Shyra, thanks for your amazingly easy to follow videos, I love using hot glue in projects to get details that would be hard to replicate in other ways. I haven’t used the putty before and you make it look so easy, I’m going to give it a try. Also thank you so much for your post! It’s getting close to that magic number and I’m incredibly grateful for your support ❤

@queencityminis Жыл бұрын

Your use of hot glue in silicon molds is brilliant. I have some similar molds. I'll need to try that out. Sharing your channel is my pleasure. It's a treasure trove of excellent miniature making ideas.

I'm sure it would. I have a Cricut. I'm just too aggravated by technology to utilize things that can help. I end up doing everything by hand.

This is perfect for the 1:6 witch's/healers cottage I want to make! What glue do you use to put the labels on the bottles?

@queencityminis Жыл бұрын

I used Canopy glue which is just white glue. Elmer's glue or any other type of pva glue would work as well.

@CassandrajustCassandra Жыл бұрын

Hey Shyra, what kind of glue gun do you use? Is it dual temp? I need to get a new one and I LOVE the bottles made with hot glue. I'm just curious if they will still turn out yellow if you use the low temp. I need a new printer too lol. When moving from overseas most electrical items can't come with 🤪

@queencityminis Жыл бұрын

It's an EasyHome hot glue gun. It IS a duel temp 😂 I never noticed. The switch is on high so that's what I always use it on. Maybe I'll change it up now and then. An overseas move sounds like an adventure for sure. Enjoy!
