not sure how this ended up in my recommends, but im fascinated and the house looks really amazing.
Same but it’s cool
Right
i say that each day.
It’s a lifestyle. Your ten years of glorious creativity shines through Ara. It’s absolutely fantastic.
Wow, thank you!😊
Do you sell these, you should, you obviously have talent and I think there is a market for it, by the looks of it
All I hear is a anime girl going Ara Ara and i hate myself for it
Not only do you have the cost and time of doing this project, you also have the cost of doing your nails. They are always perfect!
I've had the good fortune to see some antique glass myself-- not house windows, but the glass doors of an old hutch-- and I can confirm that it actually does look a little warped. Glass is technically a very slow-moving liquid, so over time, it winds up thicker at the bottom and thinner at the top. Really, REALLY old glass is also somewhat foggy naturally. The windows you've made look a lot like the real deal!
The liquid aspect is crazy! Wow! Thank you for the info!
Your meticulous attention to detail is outstanding. I'm hoping to go back to your first videos and watch how the Addams mansion came to life over the years!
Fabulous! I can see why folks do dollhouses. I don't have room so I'll just enjoy yours. Good job!
Me: Wow that looks great I bet I could do something like that even if it takes a while
*"This House Took 10 Years So Far"*
Me: Nevermind
Think back to 10 years ago. Where were you in your life? What were you doing?
I'm sure parts of it feel like only yesterday.
Now imagine the same 10 years passing, but where you're occupied by a hefty task like this - you're really enjoying it because it's something you dedicated yourself to.
If you wanna do something like this, just start! The sooner you start, the sooner you'll have a finished piece. She speaks about how many delays and adversities she faced throughout her life during those 10 years, in her final Addams Family House video. So the 10 years were not solid work. Depending on how much free time you have, it may take you only 5 years.
Time flies when you're having fun! Don't be deterred by time - you'll be so proud of yourself by the time you're done.
This comment isn't just directed at you, but to anyone who wants to do something like this. You can do it! Don't give up!
@@roisinnigcrainn7722 girl... 10 years ago i was 6 👁️👄👁️
@@icarlos3640 Brace yourself, when you turn 30 (which probably seems like forever away to you being as it is your whole life away) your concept of time changes abruptly and time suddenly moves faster to where a month feel like a day and a year a month and it'll be frightening how time suddenly gets lost.
Savior your youth, enjoy time being slow and infinite as long as you can because when it's gone it's gone. Live in the moment while still can and absorb everything for it will all slowly but surely slip through your fingers and you don't want to spend your adulthood lamenting all that you lost and never appreciated, reading throwback Buzzfeed articles wishing you did more.
Sometimes youtube's recommended fails miserably and sometimes it delivers something so perfect but unexpected that you have no idea how it managed it. This was an example of the later. I never really cared about dollhouses or miniatures as a kid or teen but more and more over the years I learned to appreciate miniatures and then a year ago I was watching a thrift store haul video where a dollhouse was featured in the instore footage. At first I was just impressed with the cleverness of the design but for whatever reason Ive not been able to get it out of my head since. Its become a bit of an obsession that crosses my mind maybe once a week or more. Ive taken screenshots. Ive rewatched the footage a dozen times. Ive blueprinted it. Ive imagined and reimagined how I would make it my own. I have so many hobbies, ideas, and unfinished projects that I told myself no, you aren't allow to try making this thing. But Ive wanted too. Ive so wanted to. When I saw your video and saw that it was Addams Family? I couldn't not click. Its a property I love, its an ascetic I appreciate, and it was a dollhouse, the rabbit hole Ive been skirting but refusing to jump down. I don't know how the algorithm knew but Im so grateful this showed up! Beyond indulging my dollhouse dreams I picked up several Techniques and tricks I can use for projects Ive been working on or have been trying to figure out how to do!
With all that said, enough about me. This house is amazing. Your widows were fantastic, the bow tie wrack inspired, and it was just fantastic to watch how everything came together. It was so impressive. Just, wow. Wow.
Back in 66 or whatever I wanted to live in that house. Gorgeous work.
Perfect Cousin It room! You nailed it! The conservatory looks like it’s right out of the show/movies. Bravo!
It takes time to create an ABSOLUTE TREASURE!!
How have I never come across your channel before?! I love miniatures, dollhouses and the Addams family! Your creativity is incredible!
This dollhouse is absolutely magical!
How did I get to this video... I actually don’t even care THIS IS INCREDIBLE!
Wow, could you see a world as patient as her.✌🌻👍
Fantastic work! The only thing I can happily suggest for cousin Itts room is to add an absurd amount of hair brushes to the top of the dresser
I’ve been watching your videos all week and I absolutely love Cousin Itt’s room. It’s my favorite. So cute.
OK, I LOVE Cousin Itt's room. The little bow tie rack is adorable, but I think the thing that makes it feel like his room is the carpet bag/top hat combo. (I honestly like all of it, though)
Also, kind of a funny aside, I live on the Corpus Christi bay, and the wind off the bay was making spooky horror movie sounds as I watched this, which I think really added to the ambiance of the video 😂
Haha that's perfect! Maybe I should add windy sounds effects normally!
Hey I’m in Corpus too! Lol
How cozy!!
I miss dollhousing .. I lost all my stuff in Hurricane Harvey
I'm sorry 🙁
:(
Looking fantastic!! Cousin Itt's room looks so inviting!!
I'm sad that this project is coming to an end, but I'm sure you will start something to keep us entertained for a while. Thanks for the Stormy cameo and I love your hair color.
Yes, I loved this series! I hope she tackles the Munsters or Crimson Peak for a new October series. Whatever she does will always be nice.
Thank you Jenny!!! And oh my I would love to do a Crimson Peak project some day!😄
@@BentleyHouseMinis I had to look up Crimson Peak as I had ever heard of it. It sounds wonderful and a project based on it would be terrific. I'm going to go watch it now.
I think when you cut the flowers off of a plant it's called dead-heading. I used to cut off expired roses so the energy of the plant could make more roses, instead of letting the plant make rosehips, but rosehips are useful too.
Is that where rose hips come from? My sister has those for her chinchilla but I didn't know they can from actually roses... interesting!
@@BentleyHouseMinis Yes! After a rose is done blooming, and the bees have been by to do their thing, the petals fall off, and the base of the rose swells up like it's pregnant. Good source of Vitamin C. So when roses aren't pruned you'll see bulby things on there, those are the rose hips.
I haven't tried to see if there are seeds in there to plant new roses with or not. Sometimes people just propagate roses from a cutting of the plant, or graft it to another plant.
It is definitely called dead-heading!
It's room is so charming! Yes, very inviting
AGAIN,that project is really great, AND all your vidéos and projects ! Thank you for sharing !
Thank you. I can't wait to see a final tour of the entire house
The fact that you're finishing a 10-yr long project shows dedication and demonstrates that it can take a very long time to make or source all the pieces needed to properly finish a large dollhouse! Thank you for sharing this outstanding playful project with the rest of us!
Thank you Beverly! That's true... and everyone has to take time off from projects as well... I am sure there were a couple years I didn't really touch it much!
Love it, lots of long hard work, but it’s a joy to look at
Thank you Brent!
O M G ... I thought my popsicle stick Addams Family house was impressive.... This is amazing... And perfection doesn't even begin to describe Itt's travel bag. I swear I saw the episode with Lurch holding that bag for him.
1.i loved how the house looked so realistic
And 2.i also have a friend called tallula🦊
Amazing! I love watching an artist work!
This popped up on my home page and glad it did I have never seen anything like it before. Thank you. xx
Cousin IT wears a Derby Bowler hat but this is so cool I'm willing to overlook the top hat :)
With the amount of time and energy she has expended, I think the Derby hat is a must.
What a showstopper of a house. Bravo!
🌹already decapitated for Morticia’s convenience.
Cousin It is so dapper. Those bowties are perfect for him!
Thank you Jennifer! 😊
@@BentleyHouseMinis You're welcome! Is he going to get a hair care set for his vanity?
So many wonderful tips and tricks. the house is fabulous!
I love Cousin It’s room ! The conservatory is looking great! I love your videos ! Thank you for sharing and inspiring me .
Thank you so much!
👍😀💞 great room for cousin IT👍
And the Conservatory, great job 👍
Thank you! 🤗
Putting It's top hat on his bed was a nice touch. If you don't know, putting your hat on your bed is bad luck. A lot of rodeo cowboys might cancel an event if they accidentally do that lol
So it fits the vibe and theme well
I'm so glad your video came up in recommendations, I thoroughly enjoyed it! It is such a beautiful house that you created. Thank for sharing this. I also loved seeing your little dog, what a sweetie ❤
Sooooo glad i stumbled upon this. I loved Adams family growing up!!! Also just about to do the windows for my dollhouse. This is soooo genius! Thank you for sharing.
As always your an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your talent and technics. I learn something new with every video.
I am so happy that I found your channel! Happy doesn't even cover it, I'm ecstatic :-)
Edit: Great idea to too, on the blurriness of the windows, so as not to see the life-sized items through them.
This is absolutely amazing. I had so much fun watching.
I have been working on my dollhouse for 25 years. You have done amazing work in 10!
They become such a labor of love don't they?😊💖
This is gorgeous, a real work of art.
Cousin Itts room is super cute!
Cousin It's room is my absolute favorite in this house. It's just so cute and reflective of his personality and tastes, love it!
I would love a complete tour with everything in the house
Very cool and I love the dog, looks like the one I had about 15 years ago.
Cousing It room is just perfect! ❤
Cousin It’s room is amazing.
I admire your creativity and vision. I could watch you all day,every day! The Adam's Family project is my favorite, but I truly enjoyed every video you have made! I appreciate that you seem to be a very kind person as well. 🤩
Thanks so much 😊 I appreciate that!
This is the first video I have watched of its kind and I must say you are fascinating. Your creativity is out of this world. Thank you for introducing me to something new.
I'm extremely impressed to be honest. You have a lot of clever techniques and I have learned a lot today!
Im a big adams family fan. This is awsome ! Im sure Morticia would love it !
I have a Calico Critters dollhouse, and a lot of the items have tons of tiny pieces. Lots of detail. I saw where some people were saying they super-glued stuff down so it wouldn't get lost, but they were still asking collector's prices for the items. (Obviously, I didn't buy any of those.) I have learned that sticky tack is my friend. It's not permanent, doesn't damage anything, and can be easily removed. I can move things around, but they generally stay put if I have the right amount of putty on the item. It doesn't take much, and the most challenging part is items that have small feet. I usually just have to put a bigger wad of putty underneath the middle part of those and hope it stays put. It even works through thin lace, though I have to press pretty hard, and I do put a tad under the lace to hold it down. With lids on teapots, I put a small lump on the inner side of the tea pot, so it doesn't fall inside, but the lid will hide it. It also works for doors that won't stay shut, and I put a small bit in the edge of the door frame. It's wonderful because nothing gets damaged, and all pieces remain fully functional! I am currently using the Scotch brand and have had good results. I won't assume that all brands are equal, but, my past experience with sticky tack has been that it works basically the same, and I've tried a blue brand and a yellow brand (this one is white/pale gray). I have had erasers completely melt, so it's a bit surprising to see this stuff hold together so well.
Came across you presentation while researching abandoned buildings and am very happy I did. You attention to detail and a tongue in cheek humor is very nicely illustrated.
Job well done, indeed. Cheers, Dick from Vancouver.
It's looking so good! I'm going to miss this journey when it's over and done.
Me too but I hope the next journey is just as fun!!
Excellent! I had the idea that the cloudy window video was at the end of the Addams videos and here it is. I don't like seeing cutouts behind dollhouse windows and, like you, I would rather the windows were cloudy or dirty to hide it
Brilliant these are perfect !
Fabulous fabulous fabulous.......maybe would have put a green lamp in cousin its room.....but your model house is pretty cool.....well done....I love it xxx
I've always been obsessed with miniatures- when I was little I had an insane collection of Sylvanians and those little detailed model houses. Unfortunately Sylvanians are not nearly as detailed as they used to be, the sets nowadays come with tons less little accessories and bits and bobs. This video made me miss that feeling so much!
this is so impressive
I absolutely loved this video. I love the bow tie rack. I probably wouldn't have thought of that!! So much time, blood, sweat and I'm sure tears have went into this project. You should be super proud of yourself because it has turned out AMAZING! Love your nails too btw. 😊💙
Thank you Traci! I appreciate that!
oh my god, I love your addams family house.
Wow ask and you shall receive! You are wonderful Ara. I love the Adams family house! I can't wait to finish some of my projects and you give me ambition to get it done. Thank you!
Thank you Rhonda! I am very ok with taking my time on a project BUT it does feel pretty good to see somethings get wrapped up! ;)
Hi Ara! 🤗
Love the way the light shines through the leaded windows in It's room.
Enjoyed the video.
Thank you Darnelle! I liked that part too!
Absolutely loved the bow-tie rack, that is so It, just Perfect. :}
Absolutely lovely.
Utterly fabulous as always. A joy to watch. The depth and detail is brilliant :-)
Love this house so much
Cousin it’s room is my fav because it’s 1: tiny and 2: it’s a cheerful room compared to the rest of the family i always wanted my own tiny lil room like his
Это что-то невероятное)) У Вас "золотые" руки!!!! Лайк и подпись однозначно! 👍
You're awesome that is an amazing eye for detail. Thank you for the inspiration. Keep up all your hard work
would be perfect for a Halloween live special ;) LOVE this house.
I have just watched Tim Holtz make light up candles. I thought these would be so great for Adams family. It’s on his fab page! Xxx
Great job on Cousin Itt's room! I love how you made the ties! Nice work!
Seeds sprout into seedlings! Love the conservatory! That turned out really well!
Amazing work as always! Keep up the great work! Have a better day!
Thank you for the plant info ;) I am pretty lost when it comes plants and seeds! Glad you enjoyed it!
10 years seems quick given you were working, giving birth and raising young children and working! I learn so much with each and every video you post! Love the breadth and depth of your attention to the details...in this one, the tiny bow ties and decapitated roses stood out to someone who watched and loved the original tv series as a kid! Thanks for all you do to inspire us all!
Thank you Lali! And you are right... there was a lot going on behind the scenes too lol! I appreciate it!
'You rang' in my Halloween beautifully with this Addams Family Mansion project.
Well thought out with numerous details from the movie and TV series. The Conservatory, Cousin It's room, the escapes hatches...etc.
This video gets two fingersnaps up with a Chinese gong!
I love everything you did today!! I absolutely love cousin its room!!!!
Thank you so much 🤗
Those escape hatches at the end are amazing! I can't believe I got so far behind on your videos... Time to catch up for sure! And hopefully I can get to doing more minis. I miss it!
What an amazing project. You are so talented! 👍
What a great video. You finished two rooms, that’s fantastic. I love the tie rack and the lamp was a fantastic idea. I also love all the little details that you put in the conservatory. I’m looking forward to seeing your next video of the Addams Family Mini Mansion.🥰
Thank you Dianne! I 've got my list ready to go... only 2 videos left in the month... I hope I can fit it all in😄
@@BentleyHouseMinis well there is always next October 🦇
Wo do you not have at least a million subscribers ?!?!??? You’re amazing !!!
Definitely one of my top 3 favorite miniatures I’ve seen created. I feel so inspired!!
Love your work. I feel like there's one or two crucial items missing in Cousin It's room. A hairbrush and/ or comb. 😊 Oh, also, maybe a lace doily on Morticia's sideboard to cover the lettering and add an extra touch.
It looks amazing!!!!!! Congrats on finishing such a cool project
I like your nails. I was thinking about what you said About how long you've been working on the mansion . I don't think that it has been that long. When the life size ones are built of this type it takes years with many people working on the building. With all the detail you have put into the Mansion I don't think it is taking to long at all. It looks very cool! Amazing work you have done. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻🍄🍄😎🌂🌧⚡
Thank you Debbra! That's a great viewpoint!
Awesome!!! Just love your videos!! So relaxing to listen to you and watch!! Keep it up!!!!
Taking a break from uni essays to actually relax and watch this, a much needed stress reliever ❤️ thank you for the great videos!
Good luck with your essays!
Thank you 😊
Ooh! Cousin Itt should have a brush or a comb!
Tack it over and over! that is the stuff I was mentioning in a previous comment. I stated there that I could not find it any longer - and I was correct! I can not find the brand I used to use. Knowing that someone else produces it is a boon, though my method of watering white glue, and allowing it to almost dry on both surfaces before pressing them together does work on most surfaces. The bond is "brittle" enough to be broken easily.
Can't decide which is the cutest - Cousin It's room, the conservatory, or the pupper....................guess its a trifecta!!! You wearing the new "intro hat" come in second, sorry!
I am so glad the brand will be useful to you! I can definitely see it's benefits! Thank you George :)
This is amazing. I was thinking it could be funny if you put several hairbrushes/combs in Itt's room.
Jojo would loved those bow ties
A feast for the eyes!
Cousin Itt’s room definitely works. In the original series it was different to the general look of the house so your interpretation feels right. I am however in love with the conservatory. It was a favourite all along but the finishing touches are brilliant. I can imagine Gomez and Morticia deep in conversation as she tends her plants.
That was excellent! So much in the video, alhough it flew over!
That moss looks brillant.
Also, the tip about blurring windows - genius. I filmed inside my pub and everyone can see my duvet through the window 🤣
So glad you enjoyed! I like to get lost in the interiors so I am glad it worked! :)
I like Cousin Itt's room. The only thing I might add is a step up to the tall bed as Itt is very short and a Thing box on the dresser. Bronze paint might have given those doors an old-world look.
Looks like a really cool hobby!
I just discovered your channel and I’m hooked! Your thought process on everything and the attention to detail is amazing!
Thank you so much and welcome!!😊
I'm so glad this video got randomly recommended to me, I think I have anew obsession lol this is so cool
Beautiful house. I love all the details. Cousin It’s room is fabulous. The conservatory is wonderful. You did such an amazing job on it all. Thanks for sharing about the restick glue. Hugs and blessings.
Thank you so much 🤗
