I can't believe it is finally finished! I hope you enjoy!
Yes, enjoyed a lot...thank you.
I heard about "museum wax" many times in miniature topic but never saw how to use it .now I knew .Thank you so much .
It’s a great product if you think you may move things around from time to time because it is not permanent. And those tubs last FOREVER! Thanks for watching!
Kitchens are always my favorite. I love that the silverware drawer has dividers!
Thanks for sharing your Grandma’s Kitchen! Your memories reminded me of similar activities with my grandma!❤️
Some of my best memories were made in that kitchen! Thanks for watching!
I feel as though I could move right in. I hope your grandma wouldn’t mind❤
She would be glad for the company! I hope you like boiled potatoes and butterscotch pudding. It was always on the menu.
I love it all! Beautiful job. That kitchen looks really cozy. I look forward to seeing what else you do to that gorgeous little house.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you are enjoying the series!
Yes I did enjoy it, I really like the way you do all your miniatures, also brought some memories of my grandparents, you were lucky to have grandparents that have so much, my grandparents didn’t own a fridge, or chickens, they live in a tiny home that have no bathroom at all, just 2 rooms, their bedroom and the living room, thats it nothing else. Maybe one day i do their home, first I do my parents home, that is been in my mind for several years now.
@@palomamiyaya Thank you so much ! By the time I was spending time on the farm, there was electricity and a fridge, but none of that existed when my Dad was growing up. There was never running water in the house. I’m glad you are enjoying the Homestead series!
It's always lovely to see a fellow Canadian miniaturist doing such great work! Your grandmother's kitchen totally captures the place and time during the 60's which saw a lot of changes in the world, yet rarely affected the stability and/or the daily chores and routines at grandma's house.
I have very fond memories of the 60's; going to my great grandmother's house in Seattle for my summer vacations each year, and sometimes visiting my great aunt who kept chickens in her backyard which like you, scared me too!
And although my grandma did have electricity in her house, her kitchen overall, was very basic, with an oil cloth on the kitchen table, a huge porcelain kitchen sink, laminate on the counter top, and wall to wall lino throughout the main floor.
My grandma use to take in laundry to supplement her income and so I vividly remember her ironing board set up against the wall, with a big basket of damp rolled laundry in it, and so seeing the mini flat iron on your mini wood stove was instant nostalgia for me.
What a wonderful tribute to your grandmother throughout your little kitchen and I quite enjoyed the story of the clocks!
Hi Elizabeth! You’re right, the chores needed to be done regardless of what was happening in the outside world. The milking cows didn’t care if it was Christmas! It sound like you have great memories of your great Grandmother and Aunt. They sure had to work hard to maintain their life!
@@pennyssmallspaces Yes, I totally agree, but also the definition of "hard work" is defined by what century one happens to be living in! 😄
Hi Penny I love that you are using the memories of your childhood as a reference to recreating the house. Here in Australia we also have to rely on internet suppliers for our miniature needs but there are have some great suppliers online. The postage from the USA and UK is very expensive and it is only feasible when you simply can’t live without the item😉😊
The struggle is real Coby! I live in a city of 1.4 million people and we do not have even one store that carries miniature supplies. Thank goodness for on-line stores!!
My grandmother (who lived downstairs from us) always had a glass by her sink that we all drank water out of. I don't feel grossed out about it. If anything it built up our immunity❤ I love the coffee kettle.
You are correct! That which does not kill us, makes us stronger! 😂
Love it!
Thank you!
Very cute 😍
Thank you! I appreciate you kind comment!
Very realistic
Thank you! It is as close as my memory can give me.💚
Hi...again...love love what you are doing. In reference to the Tacky Wax. I had always used Tacky Wax (in the red container) but before I decided to fill my house with all the contents, I realized that the Tacky Wax left a very greasy mark on furniture and wallpaper. Not so much on glass and ceramic. Then I was told about the "Museum Wax" which would not leave grease marks. I purchased 2 huge tubs from Amazon. (too much). Anyway, I do like the fact that when I remove pieces there is no grease marks. However, it does not hold well at all. I didn't want to permanently glue picture frames and all the contents such as dishes and all decorative elements on the furniture. My house has been fully furnished and sits as a decorative piece in my living room. But a lot of pieces have moved and pictures have fallen from the walls. The wax is very soft and little heat (which we need in our homes in Canada) melts it away. I have decided to make some decisions and permanently glue some items. The house has been to three shows and whenever I take it things move about. If you like to see the house it is the "Garfield by Greenleif" which I call "Vitoria. Sorry to be so lengthy but gluing and electricity has been a pet peeve of mine. www.vancouverminiatureshow.com/2017-exhibit-winners.html or beauxminis.com as you can see ...many many items to glue down etc. And I've struggled with tape wire electricity. Something to consider. My name is Fatima ...my trade name is "beauxminis".
Hi Fatima! Thank you for that info! I rarely move my mini accessories around once they are attached so I did not know it left a grease mark! I have never used Museum wax myself. Interesting that it does not hold as well! Thank you for sharing your website. I’m excited to have a look at all you have created! It’s also so nice to connect with a fellow Canadian. You likely understand the struggle of finding good sources for materials here. Thanks again for all the kind words! Penny
Very informative..n learning as I go...with my hobbie-project Thank You ladies! Have a field day of a time.
Just as a helpful addition, I find tacky wax and museum wax to be quite helpful IF something is on a horizontal service. But, if not, if it is on a vertical surface, like a wall, BluTack works much better. I tried hanging portraits with tacky wax and it was a disaster--kept falling down over and over. Blutack also does not leave much of a mark when taken off later.
Thank you so much for the tip! I have tried tacky wax on vertical surfaces and yes, they always end up on the floor. I will have a closer look at BluTack!
@@pennyssmallspaces On that historic house of mine that you liked, there are 100 miniature portraits on the walls. It was on display in a shop window and I had to go back every few days and put the pictures back up. That's when I remembered blu tack. Darn what a difference!
Jennifer's Printables seems to be out of commission, at least for the moment. Says it was suspended, but perhaps it will be temporary. I sure hope so.
Oh no! That is so sad! 😥 I hope it is a temporary thing!
Hopefully not on the same plate at the same time
The place with free downloads wants my credit card information.
Hi Beverly. I would use caution. This video is almost 2 years old but I don’t recall ever giving my credit card info our for a free download.
