- After a considerable struggle with my mental health, I'm finally back with a new video and a new name. I might go into the details and specifics of this in a later video...we'll see. In the meantime, please enjoy my adventure of turning Dollar Tree items into 1:6 scale, Barbie-sized miniatures. This video was inspired by @MyFroggyStuff

Adult doll collectors have been coming out of the closet so to say lol and I love knowing I share this enthusiasm with A LOT of others lol
Yes! I love that adults are now openly embracing hobbies that used to be considered "childish". And that many dolls and toys are finally being appreciated as the art they are 😁
I will be watching you every day
That's so sweet! Thank you 💜
The more I watch- the more I’m adoring u!
I now have some ideas for my own living room!😆😁😁
That's awesome! 😄💜
Nicely done blessings
I need the salad spinner!! 😂😂😂😂 Love this!!
It's such a fun way to create quick and gorgeous art! Highly recommend :D
I go to the dollar store and do the exact same thing! I decided to make furniture for my daughter's doll house instead of buying the furniture! I just subscribe to you!
Thank you and welcome! 😄I love how creative and personal handmade miniature furniture is. You can play with shapes and colours in ways that aren't possible with full sized furniture.
I think you're great and I'm happy you were suggested and I too see almost everything small as Doll stuff 😊. Great to see others who think in 1/6th scale.
"think in 1/6th scale"...I love that! Thank you and welcome ☺💜
I would move in there! Very 60s--perfect for Barbie.
I feel that way too. Sometimes I would love for a shrink ray, so I could hang out in my miniatures (temporarily of course 😉)
Omg I love love love that lamp!
Nicely Done👍🏼
You are too much fun and really adorable. I know it may not be what a 'serious TH-camr' wants to hear but that's the point. You show a 'real' person's POV. I don't need anything done perfectly; I want to see what I could do at home. Very entertaining, Thank you.
Thank you so much! That's exactly what I want. To share things I love in a way that's accessible for anyone to also do. And when you know the ways I struggled, you won't be surprised if you struggle too, or you can find a way to do it even easier than I did.
I also am a huge fan of making minis!
I love how many of us there are! :D
I like the salad spinner way of making art. Hoping Dollar Tree still carry’s them in their stores.
I hope you're able to get one. It's such a fun way to make art! The paint from Dollar Tree is perfect for it too because it's a little runnier than craft store acrylics ☺
Love your energy! I’m 35 and I adore miniatures! Always have ! Always WILL!
Thank you so much! 💜I love your energy too!
Ps When I make my doll houses I make them with really big Office Depot cardboard boxes. I can get 2 big boxes and glue one on top for an upstairs. then you can cut out doors, windows, etc and put in flooring and baseboards, etc. They hold up extremely well- about 5 years with wear from playing. But, they turn out beautifully. I spray paint with Rustoleum paint + primer. It works great and makes great Barbie Dreamhouses.
Fabulous tip! I wonder if Staples (being a similar store) would have comparable boxes. That's awesome to know they hold up so well. Spray paint would give the walls and ceilings a beautiful finish. Thank you so much for sharing! 💜
Some very clever ideas. Thanks for sharing them.
Thank you! I'm tickled that you find my ideas clever. :D
I too, love making miniatures. I recycle odds and ends from around the house. I am a major Barbie fan.
I can't wait to see what you do next.
That's awesome! It's so fun to turn trash into miniatures isn't it? I've got a big Barbie sized project coming in March...I think you're going to love it :D
Hi, Mina- when I make miniatures for my Barbie I use E6000 glue. I like it better than the "hot glue" and do not have to worry about getting burned. I enjoyed your video.
Thank you. My only concern with E6000 is that my studio, being in the basement, doesn't have the best ventilation. I know I can wear a respirator, however, anyone else using the basement could be exposed. I'd rather I get hot glue burns than risk my family's health ☺💜
@@MinasMagic I definitely understand. Safety and family first. I enjoyed your video.
The expression “farts and giggles” was enough to make me fall in love with you; I haven’t heard that expression for too long! 💨🤭
Aaawww, shucks! 😊
I’ve seen those boxes several times when I’ve been there literally shopping for supplies to make minis and I thought “mmhmm noo they’re too short” thanks for fixing my brain fart lol
Yay! You're welcome. Glad I could help :D
Great video with great ideas! I really love using a tea light to make a floor lamp!!
Thank you! I'm glad you like it 💜
Nice job! If i was a kid who loved Barbies, I would think you were pure magic. I use a hair dryer to soften the glue to rip apart that $tree furniture
Thank you so much! Your comment warms my heart ☺ I will definitely have to remember the hair dryer next time! Thanks for the tip 💜
I also heard some pop them into the microwave for a few seconds, if you don't have a hair dryer
I use the microwave on the Dollar Tree furniture, also. Microwave works great for softening the glue
Fantastic project! I recently bought the same table from the Dollar Tree and wondered what to do with it. Painting the legs black makes the most sense. Thank you for sharing!
I'm so happy you enjoyed and were inspired by my project. Thanks for letting me know. 💜
Very nice work
Thank you 💜
LOVE trash to treasure in anything but especially 1/12 scale miniatures! The dinning room table was 1/12 and the floor lamp was 1/6 but I bet I could modify it for 1/12.
1/12 scale is my favourite too. I mostly work in 1/6 scale to get my daughter excited about miniatures, as she finds the bigger size less frustrating. I'd love to see how the lamp would work in 1/12. If you do modify one, feel free to tag me, I'd love to see it 💜
@@MinasMagic will do, hun. I hope your daughter gets the mini bug. Imagine all of the outings you could have. Collaborate with her on ideas on making miniatures. I'm actually jealous but happy for you.
Beautiful Room! Adorable!
I see that the tea light legs evolved a bit and it's a great idea. Maybe a beam diagonally in the ceiling and it could be a hanging light. Or use a Christmas chandelier with a small tea light in it for another look. Many good ideas, thanks.
Great ideas! I'm actually toying with the idea of a ceiling light for my new dollhouse room, because there isn't enough floor space for the floor lamp. Great minds think alike ☺💜
Awesome Job! Thx 4 Sharing!
You're so creative! The room came out so nice!!!
You are so kind! Thank you 💜
@@MinasMagic thank you so much for sharing my video 😀💕
LOVE ALL THE COLORS and the setting is amazing!
Lovely Barbie room. Great technique for the abstract painting.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it 🥰
Fun video!!
It tickles me purple knowing that! :D
This was so fun to watch! Thanks for sharing your projects!
I'm tickled purple that you liked it. 😄 Thank you for letting me know 💜
Very impressive! I wanna live there! Awesome work!
Thank you muchly! 💜 If you ever find yourself shrunken...you're welcome to move in 😄
Gosh girl…. You’re so dang charming 😅I love it
Thank you :D
Love the tea light idea for the floor lamp... fabulous... will be trying that out for my miniatures, i need more lighting :) awesome video!!
Thank you! :D I'm glad you love it. I find that lighting can really elevate a miniature.
Hi just found your channel and I think your doll house creations are really nice I like the floor lamp it's so cute have a great day Possum 😊
Welcome and thank you. I'm rather proud of the floor lamp...it turned out so perfect. I hope you have a great day too Possum ☺ 💜Mina
Your ideas are awesome! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That room ended beautiful 👍🏼
Thanks for sharing
Love from Spain 💃
Thank you so much ☺ I'm tickled that you like it. Love to you in Spain from me in Canada ❤🍁
So creative! I bet this would work for my Monster High girls. Thank you for sharing your talents. Two thumbs up, subscribed and very much loved.
Thank you so much! ☺I can confirm that this works for Monster High. My daughter's MH dolls were "visiting" Barbie on the weekend and all the dolls fit in the room.
Cute!
☺💜
You should cut strips of foam board for baseboards..
Fab suggestion. ☺I've got another dollhouse room in the works and I'm planning on elevating it with more details...including baseboards
@@MinasMagic...ok, nice!...can't wait to see it😊
You are clever
Thank you
I put that table in the micro wave for a minute and the glue loosened and legs came off nice and clean.
I love that idea! Thank you so much for sharing. My hair dryer just died and I don't know if I want to get a heat gun...the microwave is readily accessible though ☺👍
This is so cute! I do want to ask, I have not seen the box/drawers at our DT What area in your store did you find them? Thank you for sharing another cute video! 🙂
Thank you! ☺The first time I found those boxes they were in the party isle with the cardboard gift boxes. When I bought the ones used in this video, the boxes had been moved to the candle isle...with the trinket trays and shelf signs. I hope you're able to find them 🤞💜
@@MinasMagic Thank you I will look in both area's 🙂
I have Phicen TB Legue figures and Barbie and 1/6 scale GI Joes. I'm getting ideas from channels like yours Popi Seed Minis Froggy minies. Froggy's name may not beexactly right.
Oh wow! You flatter me. To be up there with the likes of Poppy Seed Minis and MyFroggyStuff is an honour! ☺
@@MinasMagic welcome
Good job but the coffee table is still too small for Barbie
Thanks
I have so many questions. Why didn't you cover the chair in some fabric? it would have been super easy to do while it was apart. Also, why didn't you paint the 'dresser'? You could have made the plant's pot match the table by using the contact paper on it. There are some other questions, mainly about taking more time for finishing of the items. All in all, it was a good start for people if they need inspiraton. I just think you should have put a bit more detail into the rest of the items, like you did the table. For that I was a bit disappointed.
To answer your questions, I was inspired by MyFroggyStuff. She had made similar things out of similar things and I wanted to see if I could make the things and have them look as good. That's why I didn't let my creativity run wild. I did make some changes to the original inspo and I love that you thought of even more. That's what I adore about creative communities...the building of creative inspiration off and encouragement of one another! (preferably without judgement 😁)
My 3 $ Tree's don't have the salad spinner. 😢
As much as I love the affordability of dollartree, I hate how unpredictable their stock is. Maybe try a thrift store. I've seen salad spinners at value village before. I hope you're able to find one 🤞
