You should be so proud of this project. Not only because it's stunning and a testament to your talent and creativity, but also because it's something you overcame. Not everyone would. Fantastic job-I am obsessed with every single detail.
😭😭😭😭 thank you! I actually can’t really believe I finished it! I usually just do a different project. But I will say you really do a learn a lot when you push through and finish something that you don’t think you can do. I’m pretty happy now😂 even though I was ready to delete TH-cam and go into hiding a month ago hahaha
This is really good. I made a 1/6scale carousel 3 years ago. And kept running in to problems also. After around 3 months of hearing me cry and bitch. My lovely husband helped and made it electronic. And now it's on are mantle. Just to remind me to never give up. And that after 15 years of marriage was still work best as a team. you did an amazing job 🫶
That’s amazing 😭🥰 I love that!! I hope you guys have 15+ more years of happiness together! I definitely feel like I overcame my biggest crafting hurdle with this build so I’m happy 😆
You did a really great job. About 30 years ago I wanted to make a carousel. I have 6 horses and the 2 wooden base. That was all I did. Don't think I will ever finish it.But I love your carousel.
Omg!! I didn’t think I would finish it. If I wasn’t doing TH-cam I’d have given up on it 😂 so thank you for watching a giving me a reason to finish my projects! ❤️
I'm so glad it finally, eventually ended uo being what it is now, which is an awesome build! Good for you for trying to make it function. I haven't done it myself, but North of the Border uses Cosclay for bits that may snap off or need to be flexible like horns, capes, wings etc. It's a lot more forgiving than Super Sculpey. Phew! So glad this one is done and out for you. I have a project I've been working on somewhat secretly for 11 months or so. I'll be grateful once it's done and uploaded.
Wow. Props for sticking with it to the end!! I know I would have thrown ALL the tantrums and it would have literally been out the window before i was halfway. Very impressed 👍🎉
I've definitely been at the point of wanting to quit whatever I was working on before, mostly with cosplaying because it was a lot more difficult/ undoable than what I had anticipated.
The end result was worth it!!!! It feels so good to be done with a project like that where it fights you the whole time, but think of all the awesome stuff you learned and also any of those ""mistakes"" ended up giving such charm and life to the carousel~ i love the little animals!!!
That is amazing! It was quite an endeavor you took on. You were gone for so long 😪 I thought that you quit TH-cam. I'm glad that you are back and with a fantastic merry-go-round. I know that you struggled with parts of it but you learned a lot. You sculptures of the animals are very well done. Now take a break and work on something that's not so complicated. 😊 Take care.
@@missminilife i feel like it added a very unique sort of weathering that fit this project perfecly, like a dusty plaster residue had spread from old cracking carnival facades and sculptures, that then has subtly reactivated from moisture in the air and seeped into the cracks and crevaces. really cool effect
The beginning when you said you wanted to slam it against the wall...I'm like that too when I get disappointed when things don't work out the way I want. I need to work on that haha
……. I mayyy have ….. torn up some papers that I purposely knew wouldn’t matter to much. But also luckily I’m more of a stress-cleaner so usually it all works out and I just get a clean floor and desk😂😂😂
Koko! As you were sculpting her, I thought, that looks like Koko, then you put up the label. So great. This turned out amazing. I'm so glad you came back to TH-cam, you were missed.
I've been obsessed with carousels and miniatures since I was little so I got really excited when I saw this video pop up on my recommendeds. It turned out super cute and the paint job on the animals brought back memories of a porcelain figurine my mom had when i was a kid. I've been dying to make my own miniature carousel for years now but it's pretty intimidating. I made a mixed media painting of one back when I was in art school and had a blast working on it so someday I'll definitely get around to making an actual working model.
This is amazing, I love all the animal sculpts and their little outfits. Glad you persevered with it, you always learn the most from the difficult projects!
WELCOME BACK! WOW! WOW! WOW! This was worth waiting for! I'm glad you didn't quit. I'm reading through all of the comments and am so impressed by all of your fans and their words of encouragement. I know how difficult this build was for you, so I watched it 3 times through so I wouldn't miss anything. I was particularly fascinated by way you created the paintings around the carousel, the creation of the stencils and how you ended up using them around the paintings. Watching you create the antique look was fascinating. Loved seeing the creation of the animals - they are spectacular. I am awed by your diverse talents (the drawings before the sculpture) and the ingenuity and skills required to create such original projects! Thank you, Miss Minilife, for mentioning me in your video. I am a HUGE fan. You are so REAL - and I think that is one of the reasons that so many people relate to you. Well done...again and again and again.
Well😭…. I can’t put into words how much I appreciate your comments and support! I’m really excited from posting this video and I’m hoping to build up some momentum putting out a lot more now that I’m free from worrying about this specific project 😂🥰 Yes, I really have some of the best people leaving comments on my videos!! When I first started posting them I thought I’d get a lot of negative ones, but everyone is always really nice! thank you again❤️
WOW! Amazing patience and perseverance! And it turned out so awesome! Good for you! You think this took a long time? Ara from Bently House Minis took ten years to complete her Addams Family house. Of course, lots of life happened in that time, but still...you have to admire her ability to keep at it, and it's currently on display in a museum in Arizona. Quite an honor! And same for Sharon at Where the Gomes Live. Another 10 plus year project. I was heart broken when she had to tear it all down in the end!
i am new follower but i LOvE that you showed how difficult it was; the actual task which was difficult; your frustation and your resiliencd. EXCELLENT...10/10..❤
Im so impressed by your tenacity to keep going especially when you had zero "stuffs" left to give about the project. It turned out so cool! Does it work perfectly? No, BUT it is incredibly charming and sweet and a thing of beauty that has totally captured our hearts. Well done, I look forward to whatever you come up with next. As for working on a project that seems to take forever? I worked out last night that the miniature mouse house room box project I am working on has taken me a full 6 months so far (Feels like a lifetime hahaha), but I am mere weeks away from finishing thank goodness...unless I think of more detail to add to it... Keep creating and dont ever stop being you!
I had just found your channel like 6 months ago. I’ve been on the hunt for more POC artists and TH-cam just doesn’t give us love. I enjoyed your content and I’m glad you’re back! ❤
I’m glad you completed this. I have several projects , not as complicated, sitting in a box on my workbench waiting to be completed. You did a marvelous job! Wonderful build!
I’m so sorry you had so many troubles with this project but I am so impressed and happy that you still managed to finish and produce such a beautiful carousel!
👍👍 this is so gorgeous! Beautiful result 😊👌 Awesome seeing the range of techniques too, the reusable moulding product I think I've seen it just called "blue stuff" if that helps anyone!
Wow, what a sweet "little" gem! It's so beautiful and whimsical! I totally admire your amazing and versatile skills and of course your patience to stick with it to the end! Wish I had just a tiny fraction of your incredible skills! 😍🤩
Thank you that’s so kind!! I’m trying to build up more skills especially with all the TH-cam side of things, like editing videos and stuff but I did a lot of failed build versions on this project before anything came together 🥰🥰🥰
How very elegant! I’m sure all the learning the hard way you grinded through on this project will pay off in future projects. A beautiful build in the end Miss Mini Life!
I’m so excited to see you back! The carousel looks beautiful, I love the muted color palette. And though Koko and other animals are amazing, my favorite is the rhino. The way it jerks around just reads so authentic to a real rhino and I would absolutely choose that one to ride. Looking forward to your next video.
Very impressive! I’m sorry that it gave you so much trouble, but I’m impressed that you stuck with it and made it work. It ended up looking great, and it spins!
😭😭😭 thank you!! This was the longest art project I’ve ever kept attempting to finish actually! I didn’t realize how often I just start a different project at the first inconvenience
This looks great! So glad you decided to push through it. I think my facorite art videos are the ones where we get to see the challenges of the process as well as the result. Looking at stunning art come together seemingly effortlessly is great and all, but it can sometimes be discouraging when I start my own projects and they don't go to plan. So videos like this that show the struggles that really awesome artists go through with their projects are really helpful.
You are FABULOUS! Believe in yourself because only by testing and failures will you EVER be successful. You have accomplished and surmounted many hardships. I can tell great things will come to you .
This turned out so amazing! Honestly serious props for making the spinning and movement work because that is not easy! All of the detailing on the sides is so beautiful- I love the sort of washed-out antique look you ended up with, it fits a carousel so well. And the animals! Ugh so good, just absolutely stunning all around~
👋 Hi! Thanks a lot! Man it was a crazy ride even just getting supplies to make it was like .. needlessly hard like why couldn’t they decide to start not carrying talcum powder in stores till like new year or something 😂😂❤️❤️
Oh girl, you had problems but your filmography leveled up! Love the presentation, sorry the project gave you so much trouble but at the very least you made a really enjoyable video! Please don't stop now, shiz just getting good.
Every takedown restart I’ve learned something. I sort of figure it as part of learning. Almost every project I’ve done there a rip it out start again, rip it out partially start again. It is all about mindset. As a viewer we learn from your mistakes and learnings too. ❤ great job in not giving up!
Oh my word! I am so proud of you for persevering! The projects that we fight with the most tend to be the most satisfying. Now I know what not to do…..I appreciate you sharing this ride on the struggle-bus with us! So ambitious, and your curiosity is inspiring! Thank you.
I’m so happy to hear that because I didn’t wanna show all the mistakes at first then I kept thinking it might help someone else with something they are working on 😭
I am absolutely in awe of the fact that you make every aspect of this design! I was expecting you to use toy animals for this. You even make your own molds! This is so beautiful and amazing!
this turned out so well!! I usually just see the rusty dirty antique look, so I love that you went for something brighter. It makes the carousel feel cared for, like someone takes the time to clean it and just doesn’t have the ability to restore it fully so they do the best they can. Also, I totally get the “most difficult but also the most fun” thing!! I love a good challenge and I always come out the other side as a better artist/crafter/etc because of it 😊
“I was running out of….cares in the world to give.” Excellent save there. 😂 Seriously, I know this was a frustrating build for you, the end result is extraordinary. It’s stunning. And I can’t get over the feat of engineering it is to actually be articulated. You made the gears by hand with a scroll saw, I can’t get over it!
I haven't watched you before now but let me just say,this is the most amazing thing I've ever watched someone build. I love it so much. You should be so proud ❤
I'm so glad you're back! And omg, with such a complicated build! The end result is truly amazing, and so are you for overcoming the struggles and persevering. It's so worth it! ❤
Well done! It was an incredible challenge you took on, and I'd say it was ultimately successful. I can relate to the time it took you. I have a project that is taking more time then it should right now.
I think you're a little Carousel is amazing! I think the reason you were having so many problems with the chip board ramps is because chipboard is very textured. I suspect your stands were catching on them. You may try putting little strips of wax paper on them so that it has something very smooth to glide over and I think it would make a huge difference!
That’s a good idea! I hadn’t considered that, but it makes sense. I tried putting some clear packing take on the middle and it seemed to help a little too. I’m gonna go try the wax paper idea today!! Thank you 😁
I think it is amazing and although it may be annoying to think about this right now, you undoubtedly learned a LOT that will come into play in future projects. I build dollhouses. They take a year before I can put all the parts together. Then comes what I call "fixing the f#$%^ ups." Just when you want to be done and stand back and admire, you have to problems solve and problem solve and problem solve. Aaaaaaaarrrrrrgggggg! So I really, Really, REALLY get it about your frustrations. Good for you for sticking with it.
I love it! That's so cool that you managed to get it working after do much struggle, it looks so cute! (Btw definitely don't feel obligated to make super complex things like this every time, I know there can be some "power creep" in expectations sometimes, but simple things are cute too!!!)
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!! So amazing! I’m newish to your channel and have liked all your videos but haven’t commented so today I felt it was time 😅 btw I love that it’s not a smooth carousel and I think it’s cute too ☺️ keep making amazing things! ❤
😍😍😍 Welcome!!!! I’m glad you left a comment cause it feels like I know all the people in the comments and not just like some view count thing! It really helps me on projects like this one where I felt like giving up because I imagine showing it to real people 😭

Yeah it’s a weight off when they get uploaded! I’ve heard of cosclay but only the name. I have to go check it out because that could be a life saver!
Completely agree that the jittery is a feature, not a bug! Beautiful
I’m just still doing a happy dance that i finally got it to turn at alllll. Sometimes problems popped up that I didn’t even understand 😭
Wow. Props for sticking with it to the end!! I know I would have thrown ALL the tantrums and it would have literally been out the window before i was halfway. Very impressed 👍🎉
I've definitely been at the point of wanting to quit whatever I was working on before, mostly with cosplaying because it was a lot more difficult/ undoable than what I had anticipated.
Ohh!! Some cosplay ideas can definitely seem so simple and then be like the hardest thing ever to pull off! I definitely get that.😁
As the great movie Galaxy Quest said, "Never give up, never surrender"
No quitting, all good 👍 🥳❣️
Speachless. Absolutely speachless
❤️ thank you
😱
I'm REALY impressed .... good to see you back btw

the white wash over the animals looked so good!
It was so unexpected to look like that! Thank you ❤️

👋🥰 Hi! Thanks! yeah I’m soooo happy. I really missed youtube-ing
The animals are gorgeous! so cute! such details in their fur and feathers and saddles
I’m so glad your back❤
Thank you 😭😭😭😭🥰
Koko! As you were sculpting her, I thought, that looks like Koko, then you put up the label. So great. This turned out amazing. I'm so glad you came back to TH-cam, you were missed.
Thank you soooo much!!! Hehe yeah KoKo was my fave animal! 😁 I’m so happy to be back making videos
Welcome back!
I’m so happy 😁!!
That is beautiful, I like the way it is wobbely as if it is really old, just like it looks like it is ! ❤❤❤
The wobbles grew on me 😂😂
It turned out beautifully! Thank you for not quitting art altogether.

This just gave me the "wiggle in your chair" levels of happiness it's so beautiful!!!
I’m so happy! I was having so many doubts about it especially before the paint was done 😂
I think this should be the new youtube crafter challenge. Good work, way to stick with it!
Waiiiiittt!!!! I would looove to see a Studson Studio carousel with like Zelda creatures or something on it haha 😂 that’d be so cool actually!!
@@missminilife Right? And maybe get Bill to make something nice for once.
Alwsys good to see Allball!!! 😻
Thank you. I've been wanting to make gears
The video turned out to be a blog post on how to make them I guess I just thought it was a video but I linked it in the description now 😁👍🏾👍🏾

I enjoyed your content and I’m glad you’re back! ❤
Thank you!! Oh man you found it right when I stopped putting out vids 😭😂 well I’m glad to be back!!!
I’m glad you completed this. I have several projects , not as complicated, sitting in a box on my workbench waiting to be completed. You did a marvelous job! Wonderful build!
Oh my gosh I’m so ready to start some other projects! I wouldn’t let myself work on other stuff because I felt guilty for not uploading a video 😭😭❤️
Wow, thats some amazing perseverance! I'm so glad you powered through, the carousel looks amazing! You are such a joy to watch, thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for watching!!!! I mean it!!! I wouldn’t finish any projects at all I don’t think, if I didn’t people to make videos for. 😭😭😭🥰🥰
One word :- Brilliant :-)
That’s great and you made it spin! Brilliant! 👍It looks like a magical one. So I wonder where the people who use it will end up … 😅
I now want make a whole short film about that😆🥰🥰🥰
I’m so sorry you had so many troubles with this project but I am so impressed and happy that you still managed to finish and produce such a beautiful carousel!
And I’m very very glad it didn’t make you quit TH-cam 😊

this turned out so well!! I usually just see the rusty dirty antique look, so I love that you went for something brighter. It makes the carousel feel cared for, like someone takes the time to clean it and just doesn’t have the ability to restore it fully so they do the best they can.
Also, I totally get the “most difficult but also the most fun” thing!! I love a good challenge and I always come out the other side as a better artist/crafter/etc because of it 😊
Aww I love that idea for the backstory for this. That made me smile so much! Thank you 😁🥰
This is amazing
Thank you!
That is amazing!
As challenging as it was I think it came out beautiful.
Thank you so much I appreciate that! I love it now… well I still don’t really wanna look at it again for a few days 😂😂
Such a great video! I wish you could have shared more of your process or failure and learning and taken us on that journey with you
Woooooooooooo…… yeah….. but……. Owell 😂😂 I was fighting for my life just to get out anything at all lol
“I was running out of….cares in the world to give.” Excellent save there. 😂
Seriously, I know this was a frustrating build for you, the end result is extraordinary. It’s stunning. And I can’t get over the feat of engineering it is to actually be articulated. You made the gears by hand with a scroll saw, I can’t get over it!
I haven't watched you before now but let me just say,this is the most amazing thing I've ever watched someone build. I love it so much. You should be so proud ❤
I'm so glad you're back! And omg, with such a complicated build! The end result is truly amazing, and so are you for overcoming the struggles and persevering. It's so worth it! ❤
😮😮😮 those hand sculpted animals though!! Amazing! BTW, your fur babies are simply adorable!
Well done! It was an incredible challenge you took on, and I'd say it was ultimately successful. I can relate to the time it took you. I have a project that is taking more time then it should right now.
Good luck with your project!! Hang in there no matter what! And thank you!❤️
@@missminilife Thank you! You're awesome!
I think you're a little Carousel is amazing! I think the reason you were having so many problems with the chip board ramps is because chipboard is very textured. I suspect your stands were catching on them. You may try putting little strips of wax paper on them so that it has something very smooth to glide over and I think it would make a huge difference!
That’s a good idea! I hadn’t considered that, but it makes sense. I tried putting some clear packing take on the middle and it seemed to help a little too. I’m gonna go try the wax paper idea today!! Thank you 😁
@@missminilife You're welcome! Please let me know if it works I'm really curious now LOL just make sure it's slick side up 😊
It looks whimsical. I love it. I also love how the animal turns out. You definitely spent a lot of time making this. Amazing!
The animals!!! Ahhhh !!!! Everytime one broke I almost burst into tears 😂😂 but I at least got a lot of practice
It looks very cute and unique! The jittery movement reminds me of old stop motion animation which I think matches the whole project❤️
It does kind of feel like stop motion . I couldn’t think of what it reminded me of but that’s pretty true 😂❤️
I think it is amazing and although it may be annoying to think about this right now, you undoubtedly learned a LOT that will come into play in future projects. I build dollhouses. They take a year before I can put all the parts together. Then comes what I call "fixing the f#$%^ ups." Just when you want to be done and stand back and admire, you have to problems solve and problem solve and problem solve. Aaaaaaaarrrrrrgggggg! So I really, Really, REALLY get it about your frustrations. Good for you for sticking with it.
Ooof I definitely relate now!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️ thank you
This project is amazing! You are so talented!
Thank you for saying that! And for watching 😁
What a wonderful project! You did a fabulous job and I could see your struggle was real. Bravo for carrying on and not quitting.
Nice to see you. This was a really great project. Amazing job ❤
Nice to be back !!! Thank you!
So glad you persevered!!!! Love the carousel!!! 😊
Thanks!! 😁😁
@@missminilife you are welcome 🤗
Thank you for your video. I also dream about making a carousel. I have started using an oatmeal box. Your creativity inspires me.
keep creating
OMG, that is awesome! It was worth the wait! You are truly an amazing artist.
👋😭 hiii!!! Thank youuuuu sooo much !! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love it! That's so cool that you managed to get it working after do much struggle, it looks so cute!
(Btw definitely don't feel obligated to make super complex things like this every time, I know there can be some "power creep" in expectations sometimes, but simple things are cute too!!!)
Thanks I appreciate that!!!!!!! I do feel like that sometimes on TH-cam .😂😭😁
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!! So amazing! I’m newish to your channel and have liked all your videos but haven’t commented so today I felt it was time 😅 btw I love that it’s not a smooth carousel and I think it’s cute too ☺️ keep making amazing things! ❤
😍😍😍 Welcome!!!! I’m glad you left a comment cause it feels like I know all the people in the comments and not just like some view count thing! It really helps me on projects like this one where I felt like giving up because I imagine showing it to real people 😭
