    The "ghost" looks like a Kodama to me. It"s a type of tree spirit in Japanese mythology, if I remember correctly.
    By the way, miniature videos can't be too long in my opinion. The more I get to look at and understand each miniature, the happier I am.

      I think you are right about the little spirit. They advertise them around trees all lit up in large groups. They are SO cute. I love mine. They also come in a pack of 10 for under £3 which is brilliant value. Thank you 🥰

    Can cut the buckets in the middle and use as gardenpots with flowers. Hi from Sweden. Horses are called "dalahäst", from an aria namned Dalarna.😊

      Thank you for the ideas and information 🙏 I have since used one of the larger buckets as a large planter in a garden project that I make off camera. They look great for that. I love those little horses. Can't wait to put them in a Nordic Christmas scene 😍

I’m a miniaturist, a collector of miniature, a fan of TEMU miniature and craft items, AND the mother of a son named Xander ❤ Now I’m a subscriber to your channel. Love that ruler, too - didn’t know they made them, now I’ve got to find one

    The vampire hunter's kit is absolutely adorable. You did an amazing job with those. If I wasn't working in 1:3 for a BJD project I'd need one of these immediately (and might nab one eventually either way because they are seriously great).

    A good architecture ruler has measurements for different scales sizes including 1/12. I make different sizes of miniatures and it works great

    • @craftsbyxander
      @craftsbyxander  ปีที่แล้ว

      Do they have 3 sides? I have a set of those rulers but I have never used them. are they easier than the dollhouse ruler I'm using? I should take another look at them

      They have three sides and six different scales. I have a couple that are six inches long and 1 that is twelve inches long. I like working with different scales and they has worked really well. I have never seen or heard of a dollhouse ruler. I am quite curious though. if you do try one get one with each scale it’s own color, mine is black,red,orange,yellow, green and blue.

      I am not a religious person at all but as soon as I said it, I felt uncomfortable and my brain said, Dude, you can't do that to a bible 😅 It is definitely way to big for 1:12th but I will find a cool way to use it. Just not turn it into a demonic book 👀☺️

    I get lots of my miniatures and bits n pieces off Temu as well, and I sometimes also receive 2 of something when I think Ive only ordered 1, but then if you check your order it will say 2? Ive also seen a few other videos of Temu hauls where the youtuber also thought they had only ordered 1 item and gets 2. Always check your order before paying. Love your videos btw. ❤

      Hi Kristen. Sorry that you personally didn't find any benefit of seeing the tools I purchased from Temu for making my miniature items with. Maybe you didn't hear my explanation in the introduction that this is a large mixture haul. I don't make clickbait thumbnails or videos. My channel doesn't benefit from that. I am just simply sharing with people what I purchase for my own Miniature crafting to help other people decide if that item they have seen is really worth purchasing. I hope you found some useful items in there too
