I forgot to mention this, if you use polymer clay again, throw down some corn starch on your wax paper (tiny amount) & it will take off fingerprints on whatever your making!
Ahhhh!!! "Mess and mayhem" listed as one of the parts that needed to be built made me so happy. And it's so fun to see how our "outlines" are different (yours as a drawing and mine as scribbles in a google doc) but serve the same purpose!! The visualizing/imagining/brainstorming stage is so important. I am still so happy you named the competition (and ended up as the title for the story!) bahaha. It is infinitely better than anything I could have come up with and I always love a play on words. THE TAKE-OUT BUTTER CONTAINERS OMG. It's so cool seeing all the random resources you're able to us! I bet it's so fun to see how you walk around the world, imaging what different things might be used for miniatures! Also I love seeing how you were able to repurpose the stove kits and how that comment inspired so much!! :) (Plus shout-out to your sister for suggestion the squirrel; it's so fun we both relied on our family for bits and pieces of things! Bahaha.) I'm infinitely impressed by the amount of skill you have in so many different types of art. (Like the sketching?? But then the painting?? And the gluing?? AND the graphic design?? WHAT?!?!?!) This was beyond cool to me and I loved getting to experience this story in a new, very visual way. :) THANK YOU SO MUCH for reaching out to me, I had a freaking blast, and I'm sorry for leaving the longest comment ever bahaha. 💙
Haha.. mess and mayhem always for me!! It was so fun to see that you referenced the squirrel in your story... I remember emailing saying something like "sorry there's a random squirrel on the cake"😄! I think its so special to have a family that supports creative hobbies and jobs so I count us both as very lucky💖 So glad we were able to do this and let me know if you ever want to collab again!
Aww yay! Its funny how both art forms (writing and mini-making) are so different yet so similar at the same time. There is a process of making sure things fit and make sense to complete the idea that is needed in both art forms! It was so fun to see how Kate worked to create the story!
Wow! I've never seen someone see q-tips for a sink ?? It's always wire! I love seeing people use things around the house, it makes it feel a lot more humble
To make icing with polymer clay I think you just have to add the liquid sculpey stuff to whatever color and just mix it together. I think that's how it's made, I do not work with polymer clay though. I haven't gotten the confidence to do that yet
@@edwinacoffman6429 hi, just saw your comment, I have seen people use bendy straws for that part, not sure about the scale, may have to do some jury rigging.
This is such a great scene and I love the whimsical touches of things gone awry. This kind of looks like what would happen if I did a cooking show. I am going over to hear the story now.
Thank you😊 It was so fun to make... now if I had to make a piece cut out that would be a whole other level of detail (that's why I left them whole lol!)
Love your videos! I especially love your style. Aging and all the creepy stuff. This is different and I adore it. I’d love to start doing this kind of thing. You’re so upbeat and sweet.
Thank you Carissa!! This was a different project for me but that definitely got me out of my comfort zone... and that is a great thing! Thank you for the kind words!💖
I love the way your cakes turned out! Very cool idea, and the walpaper is just perfect, I love the pictures in the walpaper that you made. it is nice to see you make something bright, not dark brown 😃 the exploded electricity box is so cool
Awesome. Love it! You seem so happy doing things out of ordinary. It’s so fun to watch you in your creativity. I think the cakes are my favorite and oh yes the out takes and bloopers at the end!!!!!!
That was amazing! It looks like my kitchen! (The messy part.) Everything came together beautifully and it's so much fun to pause the video and look at the details. I'm heading over to Kate's channel now to see her part of the collab! I'm excited!
Thank you Rachael!! I am sure you will find it fascinating as I know you write as well! The creative process, no matter the format, is just so fun to see😁
Oh, I love those cakes! Food from Fimo was a specialty of mine back when I was a miniature artisan. That icing idea was fantastic! These videos are such a joy and I actually use some of your techniques for 16th century costuming. I was leery of Fabritack but you sold me and I now use it for some of my millinery work.
I love it! I’m on Grammy duty, so I had to pop in & out, but this chair is so cool. Brings back memories of sitting in the backyard of my grandma’s house. Hope your back feels better soon. ☺️
This came out so cute! Well, at least now I know why the wallpaper worked so perfect! Lol! Thanks to whomever had the idea that became this, with yours and Kate's creativity. Love it! :)
This build was so cool! I jumped over to read the story, you and Kate did a fantastic job with collaboration . I went ahead and subed to her too, the writing process is fascinating. Hope you work together again.
Thank you Anne! I find it fascinating as well! I really wish I had more time to write as I really enjoy it. Until then I will watch Kate and keep learning! :)
How adorable😊 Will read the story, until watching your channel never really thought about putting on paper a story for my mini scenes. I have always had a story or theme in my head its just puting it on paper is difficult. I am not a writer. Love the colors you used, I am an 80s girl so I was into the pastels. When you mentioned the color salmon and pink together I had to laugh out loud because back in the day my dad‘s new work building was painted supposedly salmon but everybody called it pink! It was an argument that went on for many many years, it reminded me of my dad❤️ Thanks for sharing building techniques and cool stories. I always look forward to your videos.
I love adding stories because I feel like it helps me add more and more details to tell the story. It doesn't have to be complicated at all but if there is something happening in the space I am creating I feel like I am much more connected with the project. Thank you for sharing your memory Liz!! :)
I enjoyed this so much! Baking can be messy by itself but when there's a distraction -- watch out! I think another scene might be a beauty salon where things go wrong...
It is so adorable that you made all those sets of bake ware, had 3 ovens, wallpaper that you made, and designed those cakes. So cute and having taken cake decorating classes the things under the cakes are just called Cake Boards. And since they're disposable they are just cardboard with foil covering them. Silver or gold usually, you can get rolls of it, or pre-made sizes of board that is sort of a waxy surface with fake doily shapes on them. The way you actually made LAYERS for the cakes on the inside and didn't even slice out a piece for the Judges is pretty impressive. And I just adore the little icing bags for the frosting OMG how adorable and functional! The Squirrel is really cute. I probably only would have been able to think of the Food Pyramid for "Healthy" but they keep changing what that is. Another Masterpiece on every level.
This was such a treat! Purely amazing!! So happy the collaboration worked out on both parts. Your attention to detail is incredible. Your talent is mesmerizing!
Oh My Goodness! You Are The MOST AH*Mazing & talented artist I have Ever Seen!! When u finished, my jaw was on the floor! I also giggled all the way through your video cuz You Are Just The Cutest! 😉❤ I am simply amazed at ALL of your ideas & bringing it all together! You my dear, have ruined it for me watching any other mini artist cuz You Are the Cats Meow! 😂🤣 I am so very glad that my sister told me about All of your videos! If I didn't have such shaky hands, I might have tried creating myself. Maybe in my next life!? lol 😆 Thank you so much for letting me/all of us into your magical world of minis!!! ❤🥰🤩❣
This was so much fun! I love making cakes but hate the cleanup so this was super fun to see in miniature 😂 even without a distraction this is the end result lol! Spackle over styrofoam (or any surface really) substitutes nicely for “buttercream” too) and the bob ross shirt is not lost on us! 😂❤️
I can't even imagine the clean up this little baking show would require lol! I feel the same about baking because I ALWAYS make a mess! (In real life and mini😄)
Fantastic job! This little scene is really fun and creative! I remember the video where you made the wallpaper - I thought you were going to create a bakery/sweet shop. The competition is a much more original idea!
Be sure to check out Kate's video over her writing process!! ruclips.net/video/ZZBZYaA7jTc/видео.html

You could of used the liquid clay for Iicing sweetheart
I forgot to mention this, if you use polymer clay again, throw down some corn starch on your wax paper (tiny amount) & it will take off fingerprints on whatever your making!
This was a frat party bake-off, right?
Loved this so much and for so many reasons💗💗
The sweet pup, yawning 💕 , the Bob Ross t-shirt, Ayra in general... 😊
Thank you my friend!!

I love the story that goes with it.
I love your normal videos, about projects that are for your existing houses... but these videos are just as enjoyable!!! 👍🏻❤️
Glad you like them! Thank you so much!
Dang girl. You so outdid yourself. What fun. Your cakes were fabulous. Keep it up. 🏝🌞
Thank you Stephanie! I was so nervous about making them!
The spray paint on the bakeware is great. Looks like actual cast iron without being too gritty that throws off the miniature scale.
Thank you!
Agreed. If she hadn't done that I was gonna suggest an acetone smoothing for when she needs prints to be more smooth
OMG OMG OMG! That moment when two RUclipsrs (from totally different niches) you love work together and you fangirl right out of your chair.
Aww yay! Its funny how both art forms (writing and mini-making) are so different yet so similar at the same time. There is a process of making sure things fit and make sense to complete the idea that is needed in both art forms! It was so fun to see how Kate worked to create the story!
Oh, that squirrel cake is adorable! What a triumph 💖💕🇨🇦
The attention to detail is very impressive. Also, the balls it took to take that clean and beautiful scene and completely mess it up... :D
Thank you Brynn! I took a deep breath and just had to go for it lol!😄
@@BentleyHouseMinis but honestly...she LIVES to be able to do that, lol!
Absolutely fascinating! Love the mess at the end - I would watch any baking challenge that ended up like that :)
Thank you!😊
Wow! I've never seen someone see q-tips for a sink ?? It's always wire! I love seeing people use things around the house, it makes it feel a lot more humble
I am forever looking for ways to use paper products over any other material for some reason lol! So glad you liked it!
I just can't with the squirrel LOL every time I hear the word I think of Doug from Up! Lol!
Also do you think the q-tip would bend enough to create an s trap for under the sink? If not what do you think I can use.
😄😄 Glad you liked the squirrel Edwina!

This is definitely one of my favorites. Love it!!
That was awesome! You never cease to amaze me! Keep up the great work and have a better day!
Thank you my friend!
Oh my, miniature food is a weakness of mine. This is so cool!!
Thank you😊 It was so fun to make... now if I had to make a piece cut out that would be a whole other level of detail (that's why I left them whole lol!)
Perhaps for a future project? Little polymer clay cakes are something I'd love to make sometime
So cute. I could have screamed when I saw the tiny tin foil!!! Love this project.
Thank you so much!
What a fun collab! A great example of how different creative mediums can work together. Looking forward to more awesomeness.
Thank you so much!
I so enjoyed your creation. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!
This was so cute. And it was nice to see you use bright colors.. an I agree making a mess is fun.. an stormy is just adorable!

I am just speechless. This is sooooo good! Every little detail made the scene come to life in the end. Awesome work, as always.
Thank you so much😊
This is so fun! One thing you can use for fake salt or sugar is white craft sand.
Great tip! Thank you!
spectacular!....... as always!
Thank you Lesley!💖
First things first: I LOVE your Bob Ross T-shirt!
That out of the way: The diorama looks amazing! 😍
Haha thank you!😊
The moment you made that wallpaper I got curious to whatever the project could be it would be used in. I absolutely love this. :}
Haha! It was planned all along :) Glad you enjoyed it!

Awesome idea! Thank you Pat!
I was watching this video and my daughter walked in the room wearing that same shirt you're wearing. 😂 She's a Bob Ross fan. We also love your videos!
HAPPY TREES !!!!
lol! Yes!
How my goodness!! This was such a journey! What fun!
So glad you enjoyed it! :)
It is so adorable that you made all those sets of bake ware, had 3 ovens, wallpaper that you made, and designed those cakes. So cute and having taken cake decorating classes the things under the cakes are just called Cake Boards. And since they're disposable they are just cardboard with foil covering them.

Love, love it!!!
You’re amazing, wish I had your talent.
Fantastic job! This little scene is really fun and creative! I remember the video where you made the wallpaper - I thought you were going to create a bakery/sweet shop. The competition is a much more original idea!
I am so glad you liked the video and scene! It could def work in a bake shop too!
Love your idea. You are very creative.
Thank you! 😊
Came from Kate's channel. Such a fun collab!
Welcome! thank you for checking out my channel!
@@BentleyHouseMinis sure thing :) I used to do collabs on my crafting/cooking channel but it's been far too long!
Loved the details on the cakes, think that was my fav part
Thank you Tracy! I was very nervous about having to make those!
@@BentleyHouseMinis I think they were the best bit for me
