It was so fun seeing how you used so many of my patterns in your project! And you should def do a tutorial over the curtain hangers! I love those💖 You have so many fun ideas and the rooms are full of so many interesting details, patterns and colors😍 That wardrobe and it's contents are to die for!! Love it all!
Thank you! I will, they came out of necessity but turned out cute. Love when that happens! I will be tackling the new desk from the cardboard house too, I think, in wood. I love how it turned out, and need one too! :). Glad you enjoyed, and thanks for inspiring so much of it.
Great VIDEO! I Love The way you used Ara's tutorials but Totally made it your own! I Love the RICH purples, reds and blues of your decor! And the VELVET Yeap that's AWESOME!. Your handles and drawers pulls are epic, they make all your pieces look very DECADENT!!AWESOME job! I especially like the chair behind the desk and the grand father clock, oh and that ARMOIRE is AMAZING the gears really set it off!
Thank you so much! Ara inspires so much stuff, it is hard to keep up...lol! Glad you like the armoire, it was a lot of fun....hard to keep my mixed media from sneaking in, just wish I had a bigger room for it. :)
Absolutely love your work! Give yourself more credit. I'm just starting miniatures and I've already got so many ideas from you. I also watch the others you mentioned but it's so nice to discover another amazing artist!
I was looking at Ara's site and her fireplace room box being sold out, went back to the video she explains how to assemble it. Bunch of people got it, but none of their channels I checked had any videos of how they decorated it. I guess I missed out, unless she restocks it. It's got so many possibilities. But I saw your comment and just finished watching this, it wasn't long enough!! Oh my I LOVE this house!! I've been fantasizing for years of a dollhouse with a secret passage way, either a revolving bookcase or fireplace, where through the passage there is a secret laboratory with test tubes and other stuff similar to what you've done here! Love the tarot cards and crystal ball, the black lace everywhere, the rich purples and other great colors. Oh my! An eye feast. So I had to subscribe. I've got a little 4 room dollhouse I need to furnish, but it's just normal I was lucky to find one built and floors done, wallpapers in etc. I can't quite sort out how to get a secret room into a house. I think maybe a wooden circle that spins around on a wooden dowel, but it'd need to have a thicker floor and a windowless lab with lights I guess, and a way to access it that doesn't really seem like there could be a room there. I was looking at books in the library children's section on how to make dollhouses when I was a child and have never built one. Some examples of secret rooms, Young Frankenstein, Indiana Jones with Sean Connery as his dad, and Panic Room movie of course. We could make a prepper house with a secret pantry with their extra toilet paper and protection and food. Shoot, I want an attic and basement in real life and a panic room for any natural disaster. My dad's house has been sold, but there was an odd built in bookcase that went around a corner, and I can't figure out in my head if there might have been something hidden behind it. I'm sure you've heard of Murphy beds? Well apparently there are also Murphy doors, like opening bookshelves. Anyway, loved your house tour. Also subbed to Nik and BHM and I didn't know Tim Holtz had all that stuff available.
This is so Awesome I just love seeing the creativity That other makers can Do. I keep thinking of remaking my Lundby house from the 80s over into a haunted house with all the project kits and how to Here I go Thank you for sharing the house
I’m going to utilize the “invisible” wall with some of my pieces. I watched her sofa video last night! But I do have a pretty cool vintage sofa I need to reupholster. I do like the scrapbook paper patterns. But I didn’t know about the fabric tack! Good to know!!!
I’m using lace to give my fur I details. And I’m building my own frames because I want a LOT of artwork! Wow!!! That knife!!! I do want to figure out how to build my own Gothic doors. I’ve been busy TODAY sorting through my beads and OMG I have some gel capsules!!!😃
I love how we are alike and create details no one will ever know are there....but we know! Funny side note. I have been watching your videos lately and noticed your name. Checked on Etsy and yep! I have been buying from you! I had no idea!
It is true, but we know they are there! :D How funny, well I am hoping you are enjoying my Etsy kits...I really need to do more. Just started a new dollhouse that I am thinking will be a Scooby Doo type thing, so I may have to make some more kits...definitely more pantry stuff. :)
Wow..you made some really great stuff in there..I used your rug tutorial awhile back, so thank you for that..I'm a Bentley fan as well and watched her video on how to make those cheap dollar tree skeleton's posable. I also did a stair runner from your video and just used toothpicks for the step rods, worked well..I love the coffin shelf!!! what a great idea to use those boxes for that, I'm gonna look into that for book shelves. Great work and ideas, loved the tour, can't wait to see more!
Glad you enjoyed it, and it is a great time to get those coffin boxes too! Though I usually wait until just after Halloween to get them on clearance....lol! Ara is fantastic, enjoying the heck out of her Beetlejuice house so far. :)
@@skeletorama1916 oh thanx so much, I'll look out for them at Michaels.. yes the Beetlejuice House... 💕 So much fun just watching it all come to life.. She's amazing! Everyone that I follow is just so talented! Great work! It was fun going through your house. I'm doing my first "The Josephine House" a 1930's farmhouse..but my next project will be darker for sure!
I found some hook “eyes” I want to use for pulls. I love that globe and I was thinking about building my own! I was looking through my stash of stuff in a printers tray in my studio and I found some miniatures the right scale for my house and I even had a sewing machine! I have been saving images of vintage books off eBay for my books! This is great fun!
I have the same dollhouse I’m renovating into a haunted house!!! Love yours!!! I’ll be doing a series on my channel soon! I’m planning on adding a basement with a Dark Academia theme! I bought the fence at Hobby Lobby in the Fairy Garden area when it was half price for the same purpose. Then I thrifted some 1/16th square craft sticks the look more like wrought iron. I need to do railings and I plan on stringing beads on toothpicks or skewers. And … At Halloween you can find the 6” skeletons at Dollar Tree that would work for your posts! Your furnishing are gorgeous! I done sets and props for plays so I’m excited about shrinking down those skills for my house!!! BTW…NEW SUB!!!
Right? Those shutters didn't stand a chance....they were just so bad! Don't think I even deluded myself and painted them...lol. The rest of the kit was awesome though (except the front door, agree with you on that too)
@@skeletorama1916 i had found much better shutters at Hobby Lobby. Correct scale and were milled to look like real shutters. Inexpensive too. I also did not like those flower boxes...left them off. I really like that green room with the globe. I finished the Painted Lady and am taking a break before dressing. I have the miniaturized Shining carpet from England and FINALLY found the scale Grady Twins to put in the REDRUM room.. i have to keep it child friendly...nieces and nephews, ya know. But I am jealous of this artist's originality..I'd love to see her work in person. So original and creative. I have a knack for finding great pieces, but I'm not nearly as talented as these people are in creating their own vignettes. I greatly enjoy watching these clips...thanks so much.
Love it....thanks for that, there aren't tons of clock patterns I like out there, and she nailed it! Especially the option for an opening door. I think I will be using hers when I do my next house, which may be pretty soon....the box is calling to me...lol!
I just started making doll houses I had to laugh because you have the stairs on the wrong side, I did the same house and have the whole front reversed!! It work's and it is our houses
The crystal ball table is incredible! I hope you’ll go check out my mummified dead fairy videos!😄 Oh! And I grabbed all the bamboo chopsticks out of my utensil drawer because we NEVER use them! I love the stickers portraits! I’ve got a huge bead collection, too! I do want to use good beads and use some beads for pulls, too.
I clicked this video not because I am a dollhouse maker or miniature's creator or anything like that. My eyes were just struck by how strikingly good this dollhouse looks! It's clean yet got that spooky vibe ya know what I mean? The colors pop too! Anyways because I know nothing about this sort of thing. You mention what house this was you built. Is it like a DIY little girls dollhouse kit and you built the whole thing and painted whatever colors you wanted? Or did you take a kids dollhouse and just revamp the whole thing? Just curious. What ever you did though... You did a great job!!!!! Wow! I may have just been sucked into the vortex now of dollhouses and miniature's!!! LOL *** Okay I commented above before watching the entire video and OMG!!! I did not realize when I had paused it to say how beautiful the Outside of the house was that when I un-paused it that you were gonna turn the house around and show the completely filled and furnished house on the Inside!!! Seriously you are SO talented!!! What the heck! I am mind blown at ALL the details inside this dollhouse!!!! Is this a hobby you do for fun or is this something you do for a living??? Because Wow!!! I am if you cannot tell so stunned by how crazy good you are! I heard you comment on the outrageous prices of tiny drawer pulls for dollhouses.... I know! That is why I never got into that hobby because if you take one glance at the dollhouse section at any craft store it will shock you at how much they charge for the tiniest little pieces! So that idea that you didn't let that stop you and you just found a way to make it all yourself using your talent and creativity is just amazing to me! Anyways I am impressed if you cannot tell! LOL You are amazingly talented.... The end. =)
Thank you, and yes, it is a kit from Hobby Lobby that I put together myself (the most expensive part for sure!). I just do this for a hobby, and got pulled in myself falling down a miniatures rabbit hole on RUclips too....lol. Had always wanted to do one, but like you, the cost pretty much stopped me....some of the furniture kits cost almost as much as the piece of furniture! (Seriously, what the heck?!?!) I kinda see why, but still. Saw a few videos of those 1:24 and smaller scale room kits you can get on Amazon, so got one. Figured I would either love it and have a new expensive hobby, or it would drive me into a blind rage.....little of both, really. They are a good gateway, especially to using unusual things to make minis. Jumping up to 12th scale made it easier, since it is so much bigger. Luckily, I have worked in Photoshop for ages, so was able to make my own decorative stuff and share those as kits on Etsy. Again, those room kits fueled that, since they have lots of little food boxes and such....and some of them are so funny. Pretty sure Sun Chips aren't in a box, but whatever! The rest is just me and my bull in a china shop style of artwork...it is just paper or wood, so why not give it a shot. Lucky for me, it works a good portion of the time, with only a few rejects in the project graveyard...lol! Doing lots of crafts over the years (am super old, so lots of them....haha), you realize that no matter what the first few of a new thing are going to be awful, so when something is awful, it doesn't get in the way of me trying again. That is why I leave my mistakes in my videos too, so ppl can see that even long time makers mess things up. (So much, you have no idea! Me and glue have an interesting relationship.) Besides, lots of cool things I wouldn't have done otherwise have started as mistakes, so they aren't always bad. :) And these miniatures are really addictive, once you get going, so beware! :P But if it looks like fun (it is!!) just try doing a piece or two, like a little couch or chair or something, and once you have a bunch of stuff, tackle a room box or house if you want, to put them in. Those houses are big, mine is around 3 feet tall, so just be aware of that too....but a cheap thrift store table will sort out your display area. Hope you give it a go, and thank you for all your kind words.
Michelle...be afraid...be very afraid..its highly addictive. Time consuming....it swallows your soul...im.on my 2nd house. Haunted as well...BUT....its great fun!! Go to hobby lobby and see their kits. Much cheaper than online. I use.scrapbook paper for some of my wallpaper ..
Took my ruler to it, and they are 9" tall. I tend to make things a bit too large, so I am guessing 1 :10 would be fine in there. This particular kit is at Hobby Lobby, and they usually have them on display put together...not sure if you could bring something in there with you to check the scale, but you could at least get an in person look that way. :)
For sure...they both are so encouraging, and have such great designs to create! In my house, we call Julie the David Attenborough of Dollhouses....she has such a calm soothing voice, and makes you comfortable enough that following along on your own isn't so scary. Her books are great too, just need Ara to do a book. :)

Super cool! I'm working on my first dollhouse. A salvaged Allison Jr kit with missing parts. Planning on a spooky theme. Yours is turning out great!
Very nice! Spooky themes are my favorite...and that is a very creative way to deal with missing parts. :)

Great video! Enjoyed every room.
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it! :)
Great color scheme. Like it!! .its.easy to replace the doors ..i did this house also. Great but cheapo shutters and door.

Very inspirational!
A sheet of black felt works to absorb the reflection

How tall are the rooms? I want to use it for 1:10 scale figures but I don’t want it to look awkward
