A friend gave me this great lantern. I realized it would be the perfect opportunity to display the Christmas tree and presents I made last year.
In this video, I add lighting, make a wood floor, add trim, make a tree stand out of a glue cap and button, wrap some presents and show you how to make miniature gift bows using ribbon and a thumbtack. You can also use paper if you don't have ribbon.

I have lots of projects planned ranging from scratch building, abandoned miniatures and Dollhouse Miniatures in multiple scales. I also have a large Harry Potter build planned for 1" scale.
Please like & subscribe to support my efforts and so you don't miss out on future videos.
Thank you,

I think a small table in the back corner with a plate of cookies on it and a glass of milk would be so cute.
That's such a cute idea! Thank you
Thanks for this tutorial. I bought a lantern to turn into some kind of scene but I haven't decided yet. I've called it my "Mood light" project as I want it to lift my mood whenever I look at it, so it's probably gonna be filled with flowers and lights and cute little animal miniatures hehe.
I love that idea!
Guess I know what I’m doing with that lantern sitting in my craft room. Thank you for sharing❤️🇨🇦
That's great! Have fun 😊
You’re so good I bet you could make some unwrapped vintage toys to go around the tree. Like a Radio Flyer wagon or something….🎁
That's a fantastic idea! Something unwrapped with just a bow on top. Thank you
‘I was an impatient little monster…’
Yup…this is me too 😝
This is me 75% of my life (when I'm not asleep)
This is lovely. What a wonderful idea. Thanks 💕👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you! 😊
Christmasy 🎁🎀🎄
Tis the season 🎄
I found an old red lantern in my garage and I had no idea what to do with it until now, 😊. Thank you for the great idea. 💐
That's awesome!
You could also put a little armchair in there with a side table, a lamp and some cookies for Santa.
I just bought a similar lantern at Ollie's! Perfect timing to see this video!
That is perfect! Have fun filling it
An absolute treasure!!!🎄🎄🎄🎅🤶
Thank you! I use this as Christmas decor in my house
You are good at teaching how to do things! Ty for the bow tutorial!
You're welcome 😁
I stumbled into your videos quite by accident yesterday and my eyes are blurry from watching so many. Your techniques for aging things are just fascinating. I make the diy kits that I only discovered a few months ago, but would love to branch out into creating my own “masterpieces”. I did modify one kit I purchased with a Christmas theme and it was so much fun to make it my own. I will be watching all your videos. Oh! and I must add that I love to see your gluey fingertips and to see that you admit to little mistakes. You are very authentically you. Catherine
Thank you so much!
😂 I cringe when I see my fingers when I'm editing but that's just how it'll be. I keep my nails short because otherwise they're caked with paint etc underneath.
Lots of us start out making kits and go from there. That's a great trajectory.
Thank for showing how to make the bows !! I have ribbon and a hard to follow tut but yours is great!!
You are so welcome! I hope it helped
Clever idea.
Thank you 😊
EVERYTHING about this is wonderful! The bow hack is genius. I love it!
Thank you :) Making bows is a lot of fun bc they turn out so cute. I should make a little gift wrapping station with rolls of paper, extra bows etc on a cabinet.
Could the bows be made the same way only use a needle and thread instead of glue? After layering the bows on the needle, pull thread through and go back down with the thread to tie on the bottom. I’d be impatient for the glue to dry too! 😊 Thank you for sharing your talents!
Love it!!!❤❤❤😊😊
Thank you 😊
@@queencityminis You are very welcome!!,❤️❤️❤️😊😊😊
Beautiful! I wish we had a dollhouse shop nearby.
I'm so lucky! I live near one of the, if not the, biggest dollhouse stores in the country, Earth & Tree Miniatures. www.earthntree.com
I know. I die a little inside every time she says "my local dollhouse miniatures store".
@@recoveringsoul755 I'm so lucky! I think Earth & Tree Miniatures may be the biggest dollhouse miniature store in the country. It's 3,000 SQ feet and it is packed to the brim (and well organized). It's a small business run by women for 30+ years.
Beautiful I love it 😍
Thank you :)
So beautiful!
Thank you 💖
This is SO cute !! You sure made that tree look good.
A 'maybe to add'...a wee basket with tiny rolled sheet music...just to add a different texture. =)
Thank you! That's a really cute idea. I think I have some sheet music somewhere too from a vintage collection. I'm terrible when it comes to shrinking files on the computer and printing them so they look good. I need to learn how to do that
@@queencityminis I just google printables...mini sheet music...and there were actually Christmas song music. =)

Thank you so much 🎄
Hahaha I can so relate to your impatience waiting for the glue to dry. Unless it's super glue it just never dries fast enough! Today I ended up with more papier mache stuck to my fingers and my fingers glued together, than there was on the wee fake wood door I was trying to make. Even using the hair drier trying to dry it faster, it wasn't drying fast enough lol
That's why I use my heat gun 700-1100° of heat gets the drying done 😁
Love it!!! I've been thinking about doing some scenes in lanterns. After the holiday things go on sale for 80% off, so I've have picked up some lanterns in the past and only used them for candles. But I like this idea! If you put it on your mantle or table you should show us a pic of it in place! :)
It's actually on my kitchen counter 😆 Kind of an odd place to display it but I don't have a mantle.
It reminds me of a gazebo you'd find in the city park. Maybe a present that looks like a toy, like a teddy bear, doll, train, kite, drums, tricycle, red wagon, wooden horse or something like that. Stockings? Not sure where you would hang them.
I thought of putting a fireplace on the back wall but I didn't want to block the glass. I love the idea of adding an unwrapped toy. So cute
How lovely to see an indoor display in the lantern instead of a outside snowy seen thanks for sharing XX
True! Thank you
Lovely
Thank you 😊
Love it! ❤
Thank you! 😊
the tree stand is perfect, too bad it is mostly covered up! love this project, even think i have a (not as nice) lantern of my own to customize! Also, love all the great options you give for making things, very helpful!
Thank you so much! I hope you do have a lantern! This is super cute. It's sitting on my kitchen counter. It's a bit of an odd place to display it but it comforts me during the chore of cooking 😆
Beautiful. Merry Christmas
Thank you! You too
I have a lantern that I am planning on making a Christmas vignette with also...I can't wait!😊
Mine is really tall (18 inches). I'm thinking of cutting tiny paper snowflakes to hang from the ceiling to take up some visual space. I wish I had thought of that before I finished the video.
@@queencityminis ..Oh that would be beyond cute😍...you can also add in some mini gift bags😊..I have some made and ready to go in mine.
Beautiful. And the bow tutorial is great. Thank you for sharing!
You're welcome 🎄
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

What about some frost on the windows?
I completely agree! I stopped short of doing it bc I'm not sure how. I know that spray snow you can buy breaks down into dust after a year or so.
Love it!
Thank you :) It's on display in my house and it looks really cute.
Temu has tiny wrapped Christmas presents and tiny bows that are very inexpensive. It would be worth it to save your eyes if you are gettng older and dont see as well.
👏👏👏👏
Thank you :)
Did I miss the reverse this week? Great project! One of my other dollhouse friends makes miniatures in lanterns. I’ll have to give it a go sometime.
PS…I sent you another mock up on IG. 😊
The reverse was subtle. It was during the clip where I'm talking about making a paper template. The clip started with the paper in the bottom of the lantern but I reversed it.
I'll check my IG
Love this. Great bow tutorial! The wreath at the top is adorable.
Thank you :) The wreath at the top was so easy but adds a lot.
Beautiful! A little kitty or puppy figure would be a cute addition. ❤️ 🎄 Merry Christmas!
That's a great idea! Pets are the best. I love my cats so so much. I actually made a 1:12 cat and a dog. I've never even shared them with you guys. I should make Shorts video showing them.
@@queencityminis oh yes do share!! Or your cat could have knocked ornaments off the tree, I had to leave no ball ornaments on the lower third of my trees until my cat wore out it's kitten. He used to climb the Christmas tree. A puppy may have ripped open a gift. You could have fun with that
@@recoveringsoul755 those are very cute ideas!
We have two cats and they thankfully don't mess with the tree. They like to sit under it but that's all.
@@queencityminis mine was born in November, so he was still tiny and light at Xmas time. Little guy would climb up the trunk to about a foot from the top. It was so cute!! Just a handful of adorable kitten!!
Do you have this in a longer video that can be saved to a watch list?

This is the full video!
Looks like my comment somehow went on the lantern video, not the ribbon short.
But, awesome!
@@amiamarylis I figured that's what happened. Enjoy!
I can’t watch the videos in inscription below.
Sorry about that! I forgot they're in the description. I changed the videos to private bc they were my first videos and they're not up to my usual standards. You can watch them here.

May I know the size /width of the ribbon that you used to create the bows for the Christmas gifts?
It's 1/8" wide
@@queencityminis Thanks 😊
