The second I saw that you were crafting something from a walnut shell it sparked a memory. When my sister and I were teenagers many years ago, I gave her a tiny drawstring bag I had made with a walnut shell inside. Inside the walnut shell was a tiny gift, perhaps a pair of earrings or something. I don't recall, but the following year she gave the drawstring bag and the walnut shell with a tiny gift inside back to me. We continued that exchange for several years, probably until I moved out of the house or the walnut shell was lost in moving. Neither one of us remembers what gift was inside the shell each year, but I think the challenge was to find something small enough to fit. It may have been just a few m&m's or a tiny figurine but I think the real gift was the bag and shell because it was unique and thoughtful and handmade and I remember it so clearly.
That is a lovely memory❤️
Maybe if it's possible you could start this tradition up again. What a wonderful memory ❤️❤️
@@lianapalumbo8457 I was thinking the same thing. My daughter is 30 with a family of her own. She is sentimental like me, carries on traditions and has started some of her own. I think I will start this year!
We used to make little clay babies to fit in them and also gum nuts (Australia) as decorations for Xmas free
@@mdeysenroth yay, that's awesome. Have a great holiday 😊 xx
Don't know which is cuter, acorn baby or English breakfast. Awesome!
The full English was a delight to behold. How lucky you are to have such a talented fan!
It's funny how I often find halves of walnut shells and there isn't a tree anywhere near by. This walnut cot looks so good, it's a really clever idea. See you tomorrow
That is the cutest little baby I've ever seen.
Aside from the wonderful things you create, it always amazes me that your delicate and pretty rings survive the hard work of mudlarking and crafting!
When I was a child I make my mother a small crip in a walnut out of clay…. It exists till now and every Christmas she decorated her on the sideboard. It is so good to see your video and my heart is full of emotion…thanks for sharing
who doesn't love a fairy bed made of walnuts
This tiny baby with the teddy bear is amazing and adorable. What creativity! 💗💗💗💗💗
😊so very Sweet 🧁 💕the walnut baby 🍼🎄🙋♀️ Thank You
I love the little baby in the walnut crib. Precious ♥️♥️♥️
This just keeps getting better and better! How sweet! And the English breakfast food is so tiny! All of you are true artists!
The walnut baby is so adorable! Memories of The Borrowers and The Littles from my childhood. :D
The breakfast needs some tomatoes, and toast. Love the idea with the walnuts. A few weeks ago, I used acorn caps and pistachio shells to create little bowls for tiny gemstones for my 24th scale witch's cottage.
What a lovely relationship you have together ❤️
The walnut baby is adorable. I had never heard of this kind of baby doll. You two amaze me with what you see in your mind and then create. Well done! The breakfast food is an amazing gift. Such detail on such tiny items.
Ahh sweet - the crib so reminded me of what The Borrowers might make for their child. So perfect :)
You can make strawberry ornaments out of whole walnuts by painting them strawberry red then poking a hole in the top and glueing on a ribbon then putting little black seeds or tiny pearls in the dents in the shells. They are actually very pretty on a tree especially with the tiny pearls. And yes ‘operation’ has been played in the USA for many many years. Love your tiny babies in the shells. Love from the USA Donna/MIchigan
Oh my goodness! The Walnut Baby is adorable, I truly like the base you chose. Fairy Acorn Mel...WOW, WOW, WOW!!! The full English Breakfast was the most incredible miniature ever!
We used to make strawberries out of walnuts. What a sweet memory you brought back.
Loving Mini-Mas soooooo much. Thanks ladies. 🥰🌼😊
Love all your beautiful little things in the new room and the adorable little thing like the breakfast 🍳
I’ll never look at a walnut the same way. Love it, so beautiful 👏👏
The stand you put the cradle on is what was left of a gas mantle for old fashioned gas lights. We had those in our caravan when I was young.They had a little white bag thing of fine material that glowed and they popped when you lit them. If you hit the white bit on anything it just disintigrated into a powder.😊
Wow so enjoy watching you put things together, so pleased the baby has moveable arms and legs, you work so well together and I adore the plates of full English, , love the the crib.
6:14pm, California. That was such a treat! I love the baby and the cradle. And both of you!❤ When I was very young my father made 3-masted sailing ships from walnuts, toothpicks, string and cloth. Each one had full rigging and a flag. He made the last one for my daughter 31 years ago. Aren’t walnut shells inspirational? ⚓️👶🏻🛌
Great family history, Merry Christmas.
The walnut shell cot and the baby are very cute and look perfect in the room. Fairy Acorn has done amazing on the cooked breakfast, it's so realistic! 😀💖x
If you soak the whole walnuts in hot water for about 45 minutes they crack neater and easier. Took me many years to learn that trick 😆. As always, loved the visit and the crafting was lovely 😍 😊
Oh little walnut baby is adorable! I am amazed that you both can work so tiny... Once again, the full tiny breakfast from Fairy Acorn made me giggle like a child. 🥰
My grandmother and I used to make walnut shell cradles for our scrap craft dolls house...Yours brings back such pleasant memories...One that survived is hanging on my Christmas tree.
Loved the walnut crib,and you did wonders with the tiny arms and legs.The food was awesome,lovely video thank you
So incredible. I love the new little boy and the mini English Breakfast was incredible. It looks so real. I listened to you saying you hope to soon give us and address we can send goodies to. I am so excited to send gifts to you all. Perhaps even a slew of different sized needles. I Love Your So Much. Watching in Oklahoma, Barb
The full English breakfast made me hungry! And the tiny teddy made me happy. I love the walnut doll bed craft! I had walnut shells in my doll house and used them to hold all sorts of things.
Goodness! The walnut baby and cradle turned out so nicely:) And Fairy Acorn Mel's gift is so precious! I love it!!
Oh my goodness! Walnut baby is gorgeous 😍😍😍 you lovelies are just so talented and, the miniture advent calendar person, WOW! Brilliant 🥰
Ikve always loved mouse houses and teeny things in walnut shells or matchboxes and your little stick baby is adorable in its makeshift walnut crib! I especially love that you and your mother are crafting together and making memories. It reminds me of my mother and my daughter. I just really love this sweet, wholesome content. It really warms my heart and reminds me of my own mother sewing our outfits for us when we were kids, and also reminds me of the little crafts my daughter would make and give me. Especially the little heart shapes in the walnut shells- that has always been a thing with us. Whenever we would see a rock or twig or other object shaped as a heart, we would gift it to each other. I still have a grocery twist-tie that my daughter fashioned into a little heart. I stilll have it somewhere and cherish it. ❤Lots of love to you both, and thank you again for these beautiful little videos. PS, I’m loving Fairy Acorn’s advent gifts, so thank you for also sharing those with us! ❤❤❤❤
The walnut baby is so very cute. The breakfast feast is incredible!! Such a beautiful gift.
Well,the walnut project is a screaming success,well done!
And that mini full English breakfast,mindblowing!
I am literally on a 5 day diet of gruel,to honor workhouse laborers,only to end it on my birthday.
Gruel is surprisingly tasty,sometimes sweet,sometimes savory.
Oh my gosh! I'm watching this and saying "be careful!!!"
Thank you, Kate and Fleur for making these lovely videos. They are so sweet and enjoyable. The comments section is equally enjoyable with the memories you stir in your viewers. What a great little community this channel has created. ❤
Incredible! Absolutely incredible, you two!! Thanks so much for spoiling us with Mini-mas!
I have to chuckle… every day you say tomorrow might be the piano. 😉 (Just teasing you two - always delighted with whatever you do.)
OMG, the teeny food!
You are certainly making little treasures and another lovely additiuon to the Christmas room. Well done. That bit of pink and brown pleated ribbon I sent you will make a lovely bonnet for one of the dolls. Glad you liked the full english. I did'nt do black pudding cos I don't like it!!!!❤❤🌲🌲🌲
You are brilliant!
Do you sell the items you make? They are fabulous.
@@TheAmber52 I am going to set up an Etsy shop when I can find out how to do it. Some things are cast in plaster and others are made in poly clay like the breakfasts. Thank you for your comments.
@@fairyacorn4854 I would certainly be interested in your shop,I love to buy hand made items for my dolls house which is set in WW11.
Just incredible that your breakfast is so realistic! Just fantastic!
That little baby is amazing.
They are just adorable. I love to hear you chat with each other through the process.
Just adorable 🥰
The walnut cradle is amazing! I think the little walnut baby needs a tiny bit of a flannel nightgown - he looks cold naked.
Nawww...I love your little walnut cradle bed n dolly...you did a great job on the legs n arms...so much cute overload with your breakfast goodies... adorable 🥰💞
At the first I was so scared y'all would give l gouge your hands! I'm so impressed that you made such tiny movable limbs and the bassinet is fabulous!
I’ve had a bag of walnuts for ages, this will get me going thank you
You're really making my December happy.
Amazing little walnut craft!
Absolutely loved the walnut baby 😊
Hello lovely ladies, thank you for responding to my questions so promptly. You were right fleur nuts do have a weak point , but I can't remember if it's the diameter or the circumference. I prise my walnuts open with a nail file . You made me laugh Kate with your improvised tool , I do the same and know other people who do the same . I use an orange stick / cuticle hoof as a mini tapper ha ha. I have fun memories of operation . The walnut baby cradle is so cute and adorable . I use to make fairy homes as a little girl filled with leaves. I wouldnt have thought of making a crib out of a walnut, although I have known of something on a larger scale with coconut shells and smaller nuts for a stand peanuts / monkey nuts ? . The sort you can feed the birds with any how and trimmed with a bit of broderie anglaise. Then painted like you can paint or varnish the walnuts , I prefer them unpainted though. Stay safe ladies , I think I might have to start my comments busy ladies lol take care until the next video xxx
Thank you for this wonderful video. I enjoy watching and listening to you as you make such awesome things. I am amazed by the little gifts you have been given. The giver has so much talent. I have to admit that i laughed out loud when you were trying to get the walnuts open. Looking forward to seeing tomorrow's video.
Food was wonderful.
You guys get better and better, this is a lovely series, you will have your own t,v programme soon haha thank you so much for sahring its delightful.
Oh my goodness I can’t believe someone made the breakfast 🍳 awesome.
We are getting so spoiled by such beautiful content 🥰
Love those bacon and eggs
Each little advent gift is incredible! Fairy Acorn is so talented.
That was so cute. Well done, so tiny, shame he has no hands or feet, could you not put that amazing Milliput ....
Things are coming along nicely!
Sooo sweet.
Your walnut cradle is a lovely addition to the Christmas room! So enjoyed the 7th day advent gift! It is so realistic! Can’t wait for tomorrows video!
The walnut cradle and baby snuggled w/teddy bear was adorable. The breakfast was incredibly surreal in it's mini state. Did Sunny give his "purr of approval: yet?
Your videos always bring a smile to my face. ( : Thank You, Lovely Ladies.
This took me right back in time, to when my mum and i made little dolls out of wool and beds out of walnut shells. I must have been about 7 or 8 at the time. Lovely memories. ♥
Your dolls bed with baby was so very cute. I loved the finished items. Isn't the room looking so lovely dressed for Christmas. A pleasure to watch you creating. Thanks. Xxx
He's so cute in his little walnut shell.
What a wonderful baby, so tiny!, I checked his size against my own fingers to see the scale of what you were working with. Well done, he is very cute. His shall bed suits him beautifully, so cosy. The room is looking fantastic, and your gift of the "full English" is incredible, wow. Lovely video again, take care xx
The doll is gorgeous as is the cradle.you are both so talented .i have been a miniturist for just over 17 year and i can honestly say i could not achieve what you have done.you have your own style of dolls houses and they are a delight.i have realy enjoyed this week watching you every day this is a bad time of year for me so they have realy cheered me up so thank you.i still have stuff for you but i understand about the p o box.i will keep them for you here untill then.pats to sunny.🐱🐱
Keep your pecker up! All the best to you and your family.
How Adorable and addictive Mini-Mas is💛🧡🤎
You 2 never cease to amaze me at the things you can do. Amazing! And how Fairy Acorn does such tiny work, I’ll never know!
I enjoy all your films so much, Kate and Fleur! The tool you're using, Kate, is a Scoopula (it may not be a Scoopula brand chemistry spatula but I tend to call all chemistry spatulas "Scoopulas" :)). It's used in chemistry for scooping solid chemicals out of bottles. I'm a chemistry instructor and we use them all the time in the lab. :)
I call it a bead scoop. Great for picking up beads and pouring them into bottles and such.
Adorable like a little angel baby ❤️
I love the walnut baby and his cradle! !
Walnut cradle is so sweet. Now I have to go and make breakfast, yum. Thank you.
Would love to see y'all string bead Christmas lights around the room! It's looking so wonderful with each new addition! Till tomorrow -- ❤️
Oh I just love the walnut baby and the entire Christmas room. I wait anxiously for every video. You two are great 👍👍👍👍
Wow you done a wonderful job on making both the baby and the bed, well done guys. It’s all coming along awesome. Fairy Acorn is a very talented lady those food items look very realistic. Take care and thank you for sharing 👍🙏❤️
Wonderful.. ...... and so very cute !
That’s so darn cute and a perfect size for the baby too and the breakfast foods look amazing too 🥰
Getting to watch these videos every day is such a treat! I wish it would ho on forever!😆
Oh, the Lil’ Legs & Arms are perfectly cute. Such a precious creation. ☺️. I’d love to hear any history on the tiny babies. Oh My Gahahad the fried eggs & bacon & beans are incredible. 😍✨🥳Janet
Hello ladies that was awesome baby cradle is so cute 😍 💕
AMAZING
The little baby was so neat in the walnut shell. I so enjoy watching the two of you making all the neat doll houses. It makes me want to try doing something like that with whatever I find. Thanks for such interesting videos. ❤️
Amazing miniatures!
The stand/ base you used is perfect. Good job. Cute.
I love this idea ,I’ve made mice and bunnies but never thought of dolls. Really amazing mini breakfast 💕💕💕💕💕🎄🎄🎄🎄
Well done ladies love the little breakfast 😀
Great Video. Walnut Baby looks soo cute. The breakfast looks real 👍🎄
That baby is so cute 😍. The craft of that breakfast is just amazing.
What a treat to have a daily upload from you guys, I cant wait to get home from work to see what your making! I used to paint monkey nut Owls and Robins then put them inside a halved walnut like the hollow of a tree! Thank you for making these wonderful videos, you are so unique, and a delight to watch 🎄
This video is so precious! Thank you.👶
Loving every day of Minimas! Thank you.
Such talent and imagination!!!!!❤
So cute I the full English made made hungry it look so real. Looking for tomorrow craft ❤
I have one of those hollow metal tools, I bought mine as a seed bead scoop. Love the walnut baby!
I so look forward to your daily videos. This one is delightful. For any future walnut creations you might consider boiling them for about an hour, let them cool, and they easily open. Also, the Where the Gnomes Live channel has some wonderful miniature walnut and acorn ideas using wee folk.
Amazing talent! Love the baby and the walnut bed👼🎅🎄🎁🐱
The intricacy of the wee baby limbs were made so well. Can't quite believe how life like Fairy Acorn Mel's breakfast looked!!! It mdemy mouth water, especially the eggs & mushrooms. You are all so talented. :0)
