Learn how to make miniature kitchen pots, pans, bowls & dishes made from plastic trash. Plastic from CR2032 battery packages are particularly useful. I made a cast iron skillet, a "glass" dish, and a pie pan from that type of plastic alone. Those button batteries also happen to be the most common type of battery for LED string lights we often use in miniatures.
My fave things :)
2 oz bottle of Diamond Glaze

Heat gun- I use mine to quickly dry paint, soften the glue to dismantle furniture and quickly cure polymer clay without an oven. Gets a lot hotter than a hair dryer.

Craft heat gun that doesn't get as hot as mine

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.

The covered casserole dish is my favorite. The green nail polish looks spectacular. Giving me vintage Pyrex vibes. I’m seriously impressed with the how the diamond glaze stayed crystal clear. I’m madly in love with that cast iron look you achieved. You jammed so much into that 5 minutes.

Its hard to believe that everything was made from cheap throwaway plastic! I like all of the items but the cookie sheet is my favorite. It's amazing how realistic it looks. I've had (in the past) some pans that looked like that. Those old pans were so difficult to clean. EDIT: I just looked & the teal is the same color as the Pyrex bowls that I have.

@@queencityminis Oh wow, that is a huge improvement on price. I’m getting really curious now! I should have known that was OPI even though I missed when you said it. It takes forever to dry but leaves a nice shiny finish if you don’t stick your fingers in it. I always do that if I use it on my nails lol. Take care and thanks!

I love the casserole dish and lid. The cast iron pan was amazing. Years ago, I made a diorama of a British military campsite from the Revolutionary War (my husband and I are historical reenactors) and I could add some cast iron pieces to the diorama. It's in half scale, so this would be a fun challenge.

That sounds amazing! Maybe you could try baking powder or baby powder to add texture to the paint since the scale is smaller.

You can make your own emory boards by using a popcycle stick and the sand paper of your choice. This will give you options for smoothing down areas with ease, as a piece of sanding paper breaks down too quickly.

The green casserole dish was my favorite but you need a bead on top for the handle in my opinion. Even my real ones have a top handle that way for easy removal. I prefer to keep my minis in line with the real life ones. lol You can actually have a bit more fun with the creativeness in them. Thanks for sharing and have a great day
