Please be CAREFUL When Using Sharp Tools!! These are Some of my First Ever Miniatures that I have Ever Made. Might not be Perfect but Hopefully by Practice I will Improve. I Used Everyday Objects / Scraps / Recycled Items and Turned Them in to Miniatures. I Had Fun Making These And Discovering New Things To Reuse As I Went Along. I Created 1:24 and 1:12 scale Items Depending On The Scraps I Used.

Hope You Enjoy!

I wish my mom was alive to see this video. She loved doll houses, and she had the most amazing ability to look at an object and see how it could be remade into a trinket or an accessory for her dollhouse. You seem to have the same talent, and I envy you. Thanks for sharing!

I’m 75 and about 5 years ago I fulfilled my ambition to make dolls houses and all the accessories. I started with using plywood to make an exact copy of my own house. Then I made other types, using various materials including foamboard. I even made a circular two story house using 3 vinyl albums with triangular rooms. Then I made little cardboard cases into rooms with furniture and tiny dolls. I so enjoyed it as I had been a fan of dolls houses since I was a child. I played with my house for hours and my siblings could never get a look in! I’ve given away most of my creations now to children I know, but have kept the model of my own house. Like your own mother I would always be on the lookout for little objects which could be transformed into furnishings etc and developed a lot of ingenuity doing so! Regards from Scotland

I looked at that pile of junk in your intro and saw.........a pile of junk. You looked at it and saw...mixer...coffeemaker...cups...scales...measuring spoons...........Makes me think of my mounds of scrap fabric that my husband sees as a pile of scraps, but I see as mug rugs, stuffed toys, pincushions, tote bags......... I love it!!!

My Grandfather made my Mother a dollhouse during WW2. He was a cabinet maker and Foreman of Carpentry at the GM North Plant in Oshawa, Ontario, where the Mosquito Bombers were built during the war. The Mosquito Bomber’s fuselage was made from beautiful blonde birch wood because of its flexibility, strength and light weight. He used to bring the scrap wood home. He built a beautiful doll’s house from the scraps that is now in a museum in the Ottawa Valley. It is a cherished family treasure and we thought it, and its history should be shared with the world❤

A little tip. The best pots are the little finger holes for sliding closet doors. I think they are called closet door finger pulls. Some are deep. I use those for stock pots and some shallow I use for skillets. Buttons make good lids. You can paint them silver or black. I painted one to look like enamel. But I also make mine from other items.

I started using odds and ends to make things for my dollhouse when I was about 6. That house was one of those metal ones with all the trees and things painted on it. I would use sheets of toilet paper as rugs, or ask for the screw ends of toothpaste tubes to make cups. It had furniture that was made of plastic. Here I am 60 years later still looking at bits and bobs and seeing things other than what they were intended for. I’ve made Barbie scale houses, and traditional 1:6 scale houses. I’ve also done a couple of railroad scenes. I really enjoy looking at miniatures and making them. I was lucky enough to see the miniature White House in Austin, Texas. I’m working on a Barbie house now. I’ve only got vision in one eye, but I do what I can. I really enjoyed watching your video. I will subscribe to your channel and check out more of your videos. 👍🏻

The walls were difficult too. I had to step back for a few weeks. But when I went back to it everything fell into place. Not exactly easy but I found the solution to my problem. The floors are slate so cracks had to be filled in. Thankfully I used pea gravel and moss.

These types of channels tend to use craft supplies which quickly become expensive so its wonderful to see what a little imagination, ingenuity (and a lot of skill!) can create.

That’s really good for the rest of us because it just gets better with that many minds who are really interested in working on it. My son says it’s very easy to learn. There are a lot of videos out there and there are a lot of free software that help you create, the things you want to create. He makes me stuff for my cricut makes hangers for my mats. He makes toys.

You're so patient. When you started to cut the top off the toothbrush (the first red item you used) I thought for sure it was going to be a toilet lid! (That's my whacky sense of creativity for you.) The stand mixer was a much better transformation, of course. Well done on completing this project. I'll have to go and check your other vids now... Just a hint: I find good, metallic paint a bit expensive in my part of the world so, for smaller projects, I use cheap metallic nail polish. It works brilliantly, hardens well, and has a much better metal finish than many paints. The brush will probably be a bit big for some areas but you could still use other small brushes for this. Just keep some nail polish remover handy (eg acetone) to wash out the brushes straight after using. Here's a few tools you could probably use (not that I'm a miniature maker, just an avid life-long crafter/maker): *some sturdy tweezers for holding on to things ( a minim of two for when you need to hold two parts together); *either a really small clamp or vice, or some large metal bullclips for holding items onto the table; *a cheap soldering rod (I find it the fastest thing to put holes in the side of plastic pieces or for helping to soften an area you want to slice); *a cheap electric rotary tool (don't get an expensive one just yet) for all sorts of cutting, polishing, etc. *a injection tool/syringe with different sized needle-heads (to make dispensing the glue easier). I hope someone finds my little list helpful. If you have other suggestions for other people working in miniatures (including jewellery makers) please feel free to add to this list.

Oh my! This is the first of your videos that I’ve seen. I am in awe 😮 So impressed with how you do this. I can’t even look at an empty paper towel roll and come up with something creative to do with it 😄 I hope you don’t mind, but I will be binge watching your content now. Thank you for sharing your talent with us 🥰

I got a decent inexpensive one at Walmart (Hyper Tough brand) just before the winter holidays a couple of years ago that wasn't too expensive. Mine has to stay plugged in when used though so it might not suit your needs if you need something more portable.

These are adorable! I would suggest putting a different surface underneath when cutting. Those mats are great when cutting paper, but won't take a slip from a craft knife without gouging a bit. Maybe an offcut of plywood or thick board? Do you have one of those mini Dremel-type tools? They make sanding and drilling easy. UV resin is great for making miniatures too. I've just discovered what an excellent glue it can be, as well as making fake water.
