Immediate tears from the soundtrack. Arwen's song is just a pure masterpiece of a musical composition. We nowadays are so used to these same songs for soundtrack to all crafters' videos from the open YT library that when you hear something licensed you don't even believe it at first. This video is totally worth it, your craft is as always neat and amazing. Thank you, Shirley, for bringing us to this wonderful world of Tolkien with your art.
Oh what wonderful comments, l agree I love this soundtrack and it's wonderful and still amazed that I can now license such music for my little projects 😊👍 Thank you so much for leaving me such a lovely message, I really do appreciate all my comments 🙏
TH-cam just recommended this video to me and I’m very glad that it did. That was very well done. From the clever use of recycled materials to the beautiful and relaxing music, it was a pleasure to watch. Thank you for sharing this with us.
This is awesome! I love all the details you put in it, any Hobbit would be honored to have such a cozy nook for themselves, I'm sure^^ I love that more and more crafters are showing you don't have to only use expensive crafting supplies to make art, it makes my little trash sculpting heart warm lol.
I love using natural items and “junk” as my materials. I’ve spent very little money on mine. My neighbor picks me up items when she goes thrift shopping. And all my natural comes from our Woods on our property…of course I use items I recycle. @zestvisions work is absolutely amazing!!!! Very talented. Do you post yours? I love seeing people’s work. Kits are beautiful but I love handmade projects.
Thank you so much, yes especially at this time of the year, stay inside near the fire under a cosy blanket in a comfy chair, thanks for the lovely comments 😊
Refreshing to see another true from scratch [with the odd added exception] recycling artist instead of assembly line workers! May yer trash always be treasure!
Thank you, this one was straight from pencil to paper and a challenge, although I have to admit most of my builds I do design in Adobe Illustrator first ☺️
This is a lovely result, I want to sit down there and dream of Middleearths heros who fight on the fields of honour, while I'm sipping my afternoon tea and eating some gingerbread 😅 But honestly what an affront to put George Martin right beside J.R.R. Tolkien! 🤭
I REALLY love and appreciate the fact that you only used a machine for the window and made everything else by hand. Anyone can operate a machine but it takes a real artist to make such beautiful things like you did in this video. Bravo, it looks absolutely amazing and I can't wait to watch more of ur videos. Cheers from Ottawa, Canada 🇨🇦
What an awesome Book Nook you made out of old Christmas paper and cards, and I love how you used the lid off a Pringle's can to make the round window. But my favourite part of your Book Nook is the scene you created beyond the window so it looks as if there's another world back there. I'm stunned by your creativity and talent. Love from Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia
Hi Amanda, thank you so much for your lovely comments and watching 😊 the scene in the back looks so much better in real life, it's hard to show it well on video, I was so happy how this turned out and will definitely try this effect on other projects in the future 👍 I bet it's nice weather in Melbourne at the moment... Just what I would be dreading of sitting in the chair 🤣 many thanks Shirley in grey Worcestershire
@@zestvisions It actually looks so awesome already and it's my favorite part! Would love to see it in real life. Great work! Very inspring with the upcycling.
I love the idea and the finished project. When using recycled candy wrappers (or any material that once had food in it) be sure to clean it throughly before using.
In the mid or late 1970's my mother built a cardboard parking garage and fuel station for my Matchbox cars because we couldn't afford the similar toy set advertised on television. Folks like her and you inspire me. Thank you for sharing!
I remember those times very well 😊 and even though we have so much now, I remember all the fun we had back then. Thanks so much for making me smile today, have a great day too 🙏
So etwas schönes ,nein bezauberndes ,habe ich noch nie gesehen .Aber ,ich kenne den Hobbit -Film und die Musik ist fantastisch !!! 😍🥰Aus recyceltem Material ,wie die Chips -Dose und aus alten Kalenderseiten und Bonbonpapier ,Bücher zu basteln ,das ist einfach ,der Wahnsinn ! Dieses kleine Feuer im Kamin und das runde Fenster ,ach ,so wundervoll ! Ein sehr schönes Video ! 😃👍👍👍
One word: WOW!! Absolutely amazing! You could be working for movie studios making their backdrops! Creativity at the highest level! Well done! Music was also beautiful! 😻
started to watch this thinking, great, I've got all these things to hand, I can have a cup of tea and crack on. By the half way point I knew I was out of my league, and views with increasing delight at your skill and imagination
@@zestvisions I subscripted, not because I shall ever be able to emulate you, but because I can watch before sleep over takes me and I can have blissful dreams. Another life perhaps x
🎶 The road goes ever on and on, down to the door where it began Now far ahead the road has gone, I must follow if I can. 🎶🥹 Thank you for this gorgeous book nook. Namárië💖
Hi Quilting Crow, thank you so much for the views ☺️ you know I hadn't planned on doing another one, but you have inspired me 👍 what do you suggest? I would love to know your ideas 😉💡
@zestvisions What about the inside of Hagrid's Hut? Or the students' room in Hogwarts, maybe Gryffindor or Ravencaw? Or the inside of Tom Bombadils house. I think no one ever did that before :)
Ooooh what wonderful ideas. I have done the Gryffindor common room before but before I recorded my progress so it's not on my TH-cam channel sadly. I love the idea of Hagrid's Hut or Tom's house, I will have a good think on it. I am building the Great Hall from Hogwarts at the moment and want to make it Christmassy, so I am hoping to have the finished for Christmas 🎄 but this is not from trash. Now with your ideas I can keep items from the bin that I can use 👍😊 thanks so much.
@@zestvisions I'm really looking forward to seeing the build, sounds like a lot of fun! And I'll be over the moon if you want to make one of my suggestions 😊
Very well done! Extra points for makimg mini-books without printing out book covers from the internet (I always found that cheating). It's the hand made and the recycling that's so cool! Love all the details of the view and cabove ground.
I have a deep and abiding love for miniatures and your video made my sing! The Hobbit nook is so lovely and cleverly made. I would like to shrink down and spend a cozy afternoon there reading and drinking tea. Thank you so much for sharing this. You are quite skilled and resourceful.

what I like about this is that you didn't 3d print anything. you used common things that people can find and use. thank you for that.
Hi 😊 thanks so much, yes I tried to use as many recycled items as possible and things I already had in my craft cupboard 👍
TH-cam just recommended this video to me and I’m very glad that it did. That was very well done. From the clever use of recycled materials to the beautiful and relaxing music, it was a pleasure to watch. Thank you for sharing this with us.
What a great name 😅 many thanks for your lovely comments 😊
Agree lovely to watch you create
Me too! But it’s getting late here so I’m going to watch tomorrow, liked and subbed before I left though
@@justinanovak8040 thanks for the lovely comments 😊
Loved the video, hated the music - had to mute.😂
Just only two words for the whole project..... ABSOLUTELY AMAZING...❤
Oh wow thank you so much 😊👍
Hey! I was going to say that!!
I've never seen glass used to make mini fires before, very cool technique. And I really enjoy the garden illusion out the window.
Thank you very much!😊👍
Yes! Adding the literal depth to the scene really increased the illusion of the whole outdoors right outside the window. :D
Thanks so much Dawn 😊@@DawnDavidson

That was absolutely perfect! I long to sit in that chair and gaze out the window and reminisce of my adventures! New subscriber here!
Awesome! Thank you! Yes I agree it's a bit miserable here in January, a fire and a view like this is just what we need 😅😊
Brilliant!
Love the use of the calendar scene, gives it real depth.
Thank you very much!
That view out the window is perfection
Your builds are so beautiful, crafty, and soothing. I'd love to cozy up in that chair! Enjoy a book, and that view. Well done! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much, yes especially at this time of the year, stay inside near the fire under a cosy blanket in a comfy chair, thanks for the lovely comments 😊
You have taken crafting to a new level! Your ideas and craftsmanship are amazing!
Wow, thank you!😊👍
Well if the tirle didn't hook me, the music was sure to. I love this, love remaking trash into beauty. Gorgeous work!

This is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you so much 😊👍
I just want to jump right in there with a cup of tea and call it a day! LOVE!
Yes it's a bit chilly here today, cosying up with a cuppa sounds lovely 😊👍
Incredible use of less "noble" material that you expertly turned into a beautifully crafted scene. Very relaxing to watch too.
Thank you very much 👍🙏
I can see Frodo sitting there! Sweet!!
Hi, yes it's just the right size for my Lego, Bilbo is in there now reading 😅 many thanks 😊👍
This is a lovely result, I want to sit down there and dream of Middleearths heros who fight on the fields of honour, while I'm sipping my afternoon tea and eating some gingerbread 😅

I don't know what ever happened to my LOTR movies, but my God hearing the soundtrack is enough to get me to go buy another set right now.
Ha yes! I did the exact same and watched them all again 😄🙏

Thank you very much!😀👍

Thanks Albert, very much appreciated ☺️👍
This is so cool!!! I love that you did an outside bit as well as the hobbit house 😊
Glad you liked it!! Thanks 😊👍

Yes me too, my scrap box keeps growing as I just can't through things away 😂😅
@@zestvisions same 😂
I love the idea and the finished project. When using recycled candy wrappers (or any material that once had food in it) be sure to clean it throughly before using.
