  • Hello everyone! This is my first miniature/dollhouse room box built from scratch. The room box has a pretty bay window, and I'll show you how to paint the faux wood bench. It also features a mahogany parquet floor, antique cylinder roll-top desk, and of course a beautiful library shelf full of books.
    Unintentional ASMR-Use headphones if you want to listen closely to the sounds of cutting, sanding, and painting!
    Sit with me and watch the past few months’ work as I build this precious little library ♥

    I sew. That's my "big" hobby - you know how most of us do myriad hobbies, but there's always one that holds a special place in your heart? One you'd never abandon? That's sewing for me. I make quilts, dolls, clothing, etc., but I started with hand embroidery. It was love at first sight. It was painting with thread. I could create anything my mind could conjure, and it was dizzying trying to keep up with my ideas. Such is love.
    For many years, I'd seen people cross stitching and wondered why they enjoyed it. It was so different from the embroidery I did. Cross stitch seemed stifling, fixed, and, frankly, tediously monotonous, particularly when compared with free hand embroidery and its profusion of stitch types and flexibility.
    One day, I was making a gift for a friend (it was a fabric book cover for a book of poems), and the fabric had a teeny checked pattern. For some reason, I decided to create a design on the checks with cross stitch. I found a vintage French pattern online and adapted it for my friend. I used vintage French silk thread I'd found at an antique store, which added to my overall delight. It was like breathing a new flavor of oxygen! Just deliciously fun and beautiful!
    Since that time, I've rearranged my hierarchy of hobbies, and cross stitch (as stuffy as it may sound) has moved into the number 1 spot.

      I feel you 100%!!! I sew a bit too, there's quilt tops and half-finished dolls just waiting for me to get back to it...
      Your sewing skills sound amazing, those thread painting embroideries and that fateful cross-stitch gift for your friend! It all sounds so wonderful, the fabric book cover for a poetry book, the tiny pattern, the fun and beauty of something new! The vintage silk adds so much tenderness and charm to the gift...what a lovely friend you are 💕
      I've started some cross stitch projects over the years but never finished them because they got so tedious halfway. But then I discovered petit point dollhouse miniature carpets! I'm planning to stitch a couple of little rugs for my next project, hopefully I have the perseverance to finish... Any tips or favourite cross stitch channels to recommend? I always find that watching others work on their projects motivates me to work on mine 😂

      @@mminmakes You are beyond kind! Thank you for being such a skilled artist AND having the capacity for such thoughtfulness. These are true gifts!!
      Petit point is a different level of skill! I wanted to make a vintage-looking rose pendant for a friend, and the detail scared me! I was able to finish it, but it took much longer than I anticipated. I've seen some beautiful examples of petit point on antique hairbrushes, and they are too beautiful for words. Can you imagine brushing your hair with such an object? I would so love to see your work!
      Yes, cross stitch can be SO tedious, which is why I initially couldn't pick it up. The monotony was too much. Well, I happened to fall ill and needed to spend many days in bed, and oh my gosh, I was so bored! So I decided to try cross stitch again. This time, the monotony didn't bore me, it soothed me. All the anxiety and pent-up irritation from being stuck in bed melted away because I could mindlessly stitch. After I recovered, I found that anytime I was anxious, I could sit down, put on some music or an audiobook and stitch myself calm. You get into a slow rhythm that has a way of both focusing your attention and letting it drift. It had become a panacea for me!
      I doubt I could offer you any tips, simply because I'm guessing your fine work is far superior to mine, but one tip I do have is this: only stitch things you absolutely love You're going to be spending so much time staring at the piece, it only makes sense to love every single stitch!
      Thank you for all you do! You are such a gift!

    I was a creative little child and I loved to try all sorts of new ways to create. We couldn’t afford much so my mom would take me to Hobby Lobby and we would go straight back to the clearance section and I would get to choose one thing to take home. Right beside the clearance section, tucked away in its own little magical corner, was all of the miniature dollhouse items. I always dreamed of being able to afford to make miniatures as a hobby. It’s hard for me to work with miniatures now because of my unsteady hands, but I still love to watch others work. Absolutely gorgeous and I thank you for sharing your creations with us. It is like coming home ❤

I will watch this again just to watch how you make this look so easy. I've made my share of books, and they aren't all that much fun when you do as many as you did. I can't really choose a favorite, they turned out perfect. My father was a master carpenter, and I remember watching him work. He loved the hardwoods, mohogany being his favorite.

    tears slipped right down my face when you butted that first table legs 😂 (am usually quite the analytical type) Absolutely Enthralling! The entire thing is a work of art. Your improve is sensational. That floor!! That Lady!! It was like watching an opera. The highs and lows and laughter. It's exciting to hear people still read books. i have been watching James Herriot's All Things Great and Small on PBS and look forward to it every year. i again watched in .5 speed because the very best is in the tiniest details. BRAVO!!

    I've just found you recently and I'm so glad I did---I've watched all your videos. The word that immediately comes to mind when watching your channel is "artisan." Your touch is featherlight and reverent at the same time, somehow; it is incredible to watch and the delicacy with which you treat your work is so beautiful to me. Especially in the modern era, where a lot of emphasis is put on short-form content and sound effects and just... maintaining an attention span through loud and unpleasant means, your channel is a breath of fresh air. I really don't budge after starting your video... the way you put things together and tell stories is mesmerizing. Thank you for being on this platform, and I hope your channel continues to grow 💕

      I have been thinking about this comment the past few days 💕 You're so lovely, thank you so much for the kind words!! This validated a lot of my decisions--like deciding to focus on longer, slower videos. It's definitely not attention grabbing and I've doubted the approach sometimes so comments like these mean the world to me (❁´◡`❁) Just as a side note, I'm going to be making private some of the older videos so I can turn this channel into a portfolio of sorts for my miniatures, so bookmark them if you'd like to return to them. Thank you again for the support ❤️

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE your work!!! I'm in awe of how you build each piece from scratch! And the fact that you designed your own room and built it to scale is just inspiring! I am a book maker and binder, and junk journal maker too. So I want to make some tiny book charms and pieces to be a background for my video flip throughs of books. But I'm nervous to start making a miniature bookshelf since I've never made one before. I'm sure I'll be very slow. Maybe I'll start by making the stacks of books. That, I can do! Thank you for the inspiration and resources list. I'm not a new subscriber!
