I really enjoyed making this, following your brilliant instruction, you are an amazing teacher
Would love you to do a vintage sink unit. Love your tutorials.
Thanks Margaret. You'll find a couple of sink unit tutorials here on the channel, both of which I think would pass as 'vintage'. :)
So pretty. I love the detail of your videos. I can follow step by step and make a near "perfect" piece. Less frustration for a novice such as myself. I've finished several pieces of yours and as soon as I'm done decorating, I hope to share the pictures with you!
Thank you, I'm glad you're finding the videos helpful. I can't wait to see your finished pieces! :)
You do something that I have always wished I had done years ago. I love miniatures! You are so talented.
Thank you Debbie. It's never too late to start! It's such a wonderful hobby.
Love, love, love this!!! Such a talent!!!
Loved this so much I had to try it. I had made a dresser for my guest room and thought this would be a perfect addition to the top and it was. The only thing I added was a 1.5mm piece of wood to the whole back. I tried to get the mirror to work on the masking tape, and it was very difficult for me to get it to stay together. So, I cut the board to fit the entire frame and mirror, and discovered the mirror had adhesive on the back that helped adhere to the base board. It solved the problem completely. Thanks for another awesome piece. I can't wait to get your books....
I'm so glad you enjoyed making the mirror and I love your idea of using a piece of wood for the back, rather than the tape. If you decide to purchase the books, I'm sure you will enjoy the projects. Thank you for watching and Happy Miniaturing!
Julie Warren I'm excited to get the books. I am sure I will enjoy them and they will be a treasured addition to my library. Julie, you truly are an awesome asset to you tube and the world of minatures.
I am glad that you can cut the mirror with a craft knife. I was trying to figure out if I could do that.
It's pretty tough going, but it can be done! :)
@@JulieWarren I Cut half way a knife and finish with strong scissors. :)
Sooo cute !!!
Thanks Elaine.
Another stunning piece!!! I do enjoy your videos so much!
Thank you Sarah.
I adore this one, Julie; I had a dressing table mirror just like this when I was younger & I loved it, it was so pretty! I had it plonked atop a chest of drawers made from 1980's scary orange pine - not so pretty LOL. Thanks for another great vid :)
Ha, yes, that old 80's furniture was a bit scary! We had a huge cabinet in our living room, that had a 'pull-down' drinks cabinet! I'm glad you like the mirror tutorial. :)
I am just going to embark on a 1/12th scale doll house build and found this channel rather by accident looking for CNC doll house plans. I have subscribed. I think I may get your book.
Hi Ian, I'm so glad you stumbled across my channel and I hope you'll enjoy the tutorials. If you decide to buy the books, I'm sure you'll enjoy them - the first book, Step by Step, includes 27 projects and there's something in there for each room of the house! Good luck with your project. PS - thank you for the Facebook like too! :)
When my cellphone tells me that you uploaded a video, I look for my tablet to see it better and I prepare a coffee to enjoy your art. Xoxo
Thank you Rossy, that's lovely.
Hi Julie,your work is amazing.I have tried making most of ur miniatures.Your tutorials are ckear informative and self explainatory.Please give me aome tutorials on making ikea like furniture.I will be very thankful.
Hi Nirupama, thank you so much. I'm glad you're enjoying the tutorials. I will add 'ikea style furniture' to my list...
Hi Julie,I absolutely love your tutorials. I was wondering if you would be doing a tutorial for upper and lower kitchen cabinets ?Would love one that incorporates a dish holder.Thank you,Kim
Hi Kim, I can certainly add that to my list, but in the meantime, you might like to have a look at my last book, 'Creating Dolls' House Kitchens in 1/12th Scale,' (sorry for the shameless plug!) here is a link to a preview: ruclips.net/video/75PZhXFCwrI/видео.html
LOVE this projecct. julie-I am wallpapering my doll's house and am terrified to start. Will you pleaase do a video where you show oddly shaped walls being papered? I know it might not be your preferred projet but I love the way you teach and explain.
Thanks Sandra, I'll add wallpapering to my list. I have a shop project I shall be sharing on here at some point, so will do the wallpapering as a tutorial.
Love it 😊 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Hermoso todo lo que haces
muchas gracias
Hi Julie! Another stellar video and miniature piece. After many views and some trepidation, I am ready to tackle a few pieces. I can not find obeche in the US, so I am going to purchase basswood, as you suggested. Could you possibly make some suggestions for the sizes that might be best as a start? I know that there may be some variance, but would truly be thrilled for the help, as, possibly, may be some other viewers who may be ready to dive in and would like to purchase the most-used sizes and profiles as well. All the best and many thanks for all your efforts to make lovely miniature furniture design accessible.
Thank you Suzy. I'm glad you've decided to have a go. I would recommend starting with 1/16 inch thick sheet wood, perhaps a couple of sheets (here they are sold in 18 inch long sheets as standard) and a sheet of 3/32 inch. And then a few strips of the 13/64 x 13/64 and 1/8 x 1/8, which I use for legs. I hope that helps.
Where do you purchase your wood from. Looks like I am going to need to import some. Can't locate anything suitable here in New Zealand.
Hi Petrik, I have an account with a supplier in the UK and I shall be adding some stock to Etsy store soon. I'm happy to ship worldwide, so if you let me know what you'd like, I can put it to one side for you...
Thanks for the offer and I may get a few sheets to try from you but ultimately I'm looking for a wholesale supplier so I can resell on my website too.
Lovely. Can you use balsa wood for these projects?
Thank you Kerry. You can use Balsa, although I'm not a huge fan of it...As it is such a thin wood, it's got an open grain, which means it doesn't sand or take paint / varnish as well. If you're having trouble getting hold of the Obeche, I sell it in sheet and strip in my Etsy store. Here is a link: www.etsy.com/uk/shop/BitsAndPiecesByJulie
Thank you for sharing your videos have you ever thought about selling kits in your Etsy store thanks
Thank you Lola. I did think about kits, but as I hand cut wood only, it wouldn't really have been cost effective.
If you break a dolls house mirror , do you get 7 months bad luck ?
Love your work, but any chance you can fiddle with the focus?? Also, I’m in love with the Victorian Farm series that aired ten years ago in the UK. Have you/could you create peices from that time period?? I’m currently trying to replicate Ruth’s farmhouse.
Thank you Kari. I'll try to do better with the focus in future, I do get a bit close sometimes! I love the idea of doing some pieces from Ruth's farmhouse and will add that to my list.
Belo eu amei,muito lindo.👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍❤❤❤💋💋
I live in the US, I suspect that you live somewhere else. I am not familiar with obeche wood, I am assuming it is similar to balsa wood?
It's a bit more robust than balsa, and because it has a closer grain, it sands and takes paint better too. Please have a look at my Working with Wood video, which might give you a few tips on other types of suitable wood. ruclips.net/video/Z2FsQ6ckC64/видео.html
just a small point, I think the correct pronunciation is Obeeshee, ? I was in the cabinet trade and we used tons of it.
Thank you for the correction
Hi Julie, I am addicted to your tutorials and want to visit your shop on Etsy, could you send me the link to it. Also, I was wondering if you have a shop on Ebay.
