    Hi Nik!! I personally would love to see how you make furniture for the house. You are so brilliant and you come up with the coolest ideas!!!

    Love the fireplace and the light fixtures too! I personally would like to see it furnished with the carpet, bookcases and books, and furniture...all the stuff. The house is waiting for its things 🙂

    Furniture would be fun! However, if you don’t want to make furniture but you also don’t want to leave it empty, you could maybe do a stack of miniature boxes as if someone is just moving in (or moving out) haha

    I would love to see this little house furnished! But, I get that it would take time. Let it, and build things when/if you want too. :) There's no rush. All the best to you, Nik! :)

    Looking great Nik! I think you should go all the way, the whole shebang, rugs, furniture and maybe a silver tea set setting on the table. Put one of your lovely bookcases (filled with your adorable mini book) in the downstairs area. Heck yeah! I'd even make a donation toward some building materials.
    My mother was a miniature hobbyist/enthusiast. She had collected, as well as built many pieces over the years and was looking forward to one day rebuilding (in miniature) her childhood home, an early 1900s farmhouse. However, due to severe kidney and heart damage from diabetes, she passed before she could see her vision come to life.
    I would love to watch you bring this little house to life, no dolls though.
    Just my two cents worth.
    Happy crafting!

    OMG! You make running electricity to your doll house look easy! I have a witches cottage in the works that I've been putting off finishing because it needs lighting. Thank you for sharing how you did it, I'm going to give it a try. It will be easier than trying to convince my son to get the cottage out of the 102* attic! I think you should make some furniture I watched a video on how to make a tufted bed out of a kitchen sponge it was super cute and easy looking.

  • @recoveringsoul755

    Maybe you could use the miniature house as a setting for your craft time mystery stories. Recreate crime scenes. Like a tipped over chair under a hangman's noose...
    You should definitely keep going because you mayit look so easy. There have to be mini books, a shelf for them, snd a comfy chair to read by near the fireplace

    Just a thought, but it I’m pretty sure if I spent all that time constructing the perfect little house along with working light fixtures and a glowing realistic wood burning fireplace, I would have to furnish it. I’m pretty sure you’re going to have to (at least) moderately furnish and decorate this beauty to be able to sleep at night. We’ll see soon enough.

    I think it should only be furnished with a big comfy chair, bookcases, and books.... or no bookcases, just stacks and stacks of books... and I guess something to sleep on. So maybe a comfy daybed that can serve both snuggling down with a book and sleeping activities!

    Hi Nik, I finally broke down and signed up; your channel is my first subscription. (We chatted on Instagram a few weeks ago.) In addition to saying how much I have enjoyed your videos for quite a while now, two things: First, I'd love to see you furnish the house, but the furnishings should be as unique as it and you are -- and can take as long as you need to get them just right. Second, please tell me about the tool you used for twisting the wires in your lights. I have searched and cannot find anything like it! Thanks for all you do.

  • @mariep-MAPAT

    Hi Nik! I love this a lot! I always loved miniatures! I kinda noticed your fireplace still looks too clean for me: if it were a real fireplace, it would get soot on the back wall and maybe also traces (like it would have been wipes for years) on the ground. And, I could not stop there, do all this work and not finish it? Maybe, if you don't want people to leave in it, you could put SOME furniture, like it was left there by former occupants? Well it's just an idea, you do you!
