    So I thought of this while watching the video. Imagine if the dragon sneezed while sleeping... it would burn off the top of the tower right? So if you made it look " Singed" or burnt off. I think that would be a great story and give the tower some more interest!

      In her "making the dragon" video another commenter suggested the same thing, and also suggested it might be because the dragon is allergic to dandelion fluff and broccoli. But Miss Periwinkle fed the dragon broccoli anyway because she thought he was only saying that because he didn't like it. Guess this lore is a natural part of public zeitgeist now!

    Here is an item I might want to make on my day off. This is much more interesting than a regular Grandfather clock. Photos of the clock in various places in the house made me think, ..... You have a Fairy Godmother Clock that meanders about the house O_0 I like this.

    Lovely! The purple wash gave it an almost iridescent look. Love it!
    I also like the shelf additions! Great idea!
    For the wick, you could also heat the pencil lead and insert it directly into the candle. Being made of graphite, it can take a lot of heat! Just a thought!

    Candles, ummm let me see should you use more candles? Heck yes! You make the candles look so whimsical, they add a personal touch to you project. That could be a signature item, like Robert Thompson who added a mouse to all he’s woodwork projects. You could even hide them and leave it to us to find, oh what fun. OK I’m getting a little carried away, can I help it if I’m a 70 year kid.🤪🤪🤪🤪😂😂😂

    The moment when the joint compound is added to a cardboard miniature is like the moment when Baumgartener Restoration finally gets around to cleaning the dirt off the face of an old painting! The rest is cool, but this is where the magical transformation happens!

    I don't want the cardboard builds to end! It seems like such a more approachable material than wood, for me. I really like the slight wonkiness of things, and the texture the joint compound gives it.
    I don't know if this would work, but I was wondering if adding sand or some other textured material might do interesting things in the joint compound mixture? Maybe coffee grounds? Not for every project, but maybe it could have a place on something you want to be rougher, or just to show a difference of material for detailing.
    Would glitter show through at all, do you think? I don't know how opaque the joint compound makes the mixture. If opal glitter showed through just a little, it might add to the magical feel inside a fairy grotto or something.
