For some reason, I love how you go to such trouble to make a realistic scroll with actual text in it ... and then seal it up at the end, like all that internal detail is the scroll's own little secret. :-)
How lovely of you to notice that!! 💗💗
Yeah, just like the real thing... those Medieval documents are magical. Especially those with the hanging seals, they are ancient and priceless! 💗💗
I love this! It's a miniature tutorial AND a history lesson wrapped up in one!
Hello Jennifer! I'm so glad you liked that!! 🤗💗💗
I know I'm biased, but I do agree 😊.. the great joy of these miniatures is that they're wonderful to look at but also packed with fascinating history... and I love to share that! 📜⚔️
I'm making these as favors for my renaissance faire friends. The dental floss leather is ingenious!
Hello!!
I'm sure your renaissance friends will love them... how nice of you!! 📜😘
Thank you for your support 💗💗
You are amazing! Thank you for this video! I'm a big fan of wax seal myself. Even in present day, it make a birthday card special.
You are so welcome, Marie! 💗💌 I'm so glad you enjoyed the video!
Yessss... wax seals are so amazing... they make everything special, romantic and beautiful! Everyone should use them more! 😊💌💌💗
These scrolls are perfect for my miniself Library Diorama project, not only it will hold ancient scrolls but also books of every last historical sorcery of each schools of magic.
See you next time.😊💖
Oh yes, Briana! That sounds lovely... yay for your library diorama! Sounds like it can maybe also hold some Poison Books too... ha ha! 😊💗📚
@@ladyminiac hmm ... maybe a historical poisonous plant's, insect's, spell & plagues book should hold them.
Your diorama sounds like a dangerous place!! 😊😊💗
😜 Have you considered my Murder Handbook and Deadly Poison Books? 😊 They would be at home there 😆
@@brianahawkins8124 I’d love to ser your diorama once finished. It sounds like you’re going to make something amazing!
Just AMAZING!!! I love all your minis. Thank you very much to teach us.
Aaah Maria... what kind words 🌷💗 thank you very much!! 😘
It is a huge pleasure 🎬
Fascinating - and informative!. They look amazing and I particularly love the mini seals.
I am so glad you like them! 📜👏🏼💗 Thank you so much!
Yeah, I can't tell you how much fun I had with those little seals and stamps 🥰😘 Irene xxx
Thank you Marti for the enthusiasm and support... I love your special hearts!! 😊💗😘
Very cool! Thanks for the free printables 👍🤗
You are so welcome! Thank YOU for the support... 💗😊😘
Wonderful video!! Just excellent!! I love all the details you put into these scrolls, and the added historical facts are really interesting and add so much uniqueness to your videos. ❤
Aahhh Gina... you are so kind! Thank you for the lovely words 😘💗
I am so happy that someone loves the detail and enjoys the true history behind these tiny treasures... as I do!! 📜💗

So beautiful and captivating to watch🌟
You are too kind, I'm happy that you enjoyed that! 📜 💗
absolutely beautiful!
Thank you so much... so glad you enjoyed it! 💗📜
I enjoy watching your videos, Lady Miniac! I listen to your historical comments, and learn a lot. I was sad to hear that the signet rings were destroyed after their owners died! It would have been fascinating to see what these rings looked like! Your miniature scrolls really are enchanting, and I'd love to make one myself. My favorite part of this video is the making of the wax seals!! Thank you so much for this tutorial! Happy New Year! 2023! ~Janet in Canada
Hello precious Janet💗
It's messages like yours that warm my heart so much... I can't tell you! I'm so glad you find the videos helpful and enjoyable! 😊
I love that you find little facts like that interesting... yeah, how awful that those completely personal and precious treasures (signet rings) were destroyed! It was so important that no one continued authorizing important documents or decrees under the guise of the departed person.
We've recently seen the exact same thing happening to the seals of Queen Elizabeth II. King Charles had to publicly give permission for certain seals and emblems to continue being used until they have his new ones... after which his mother's will be destroyed. 😞
As for the mini wax seals in the tutorial... yes, aren't they just so magical? Anything goes! People can have endless fun with those 😊
Thank you so much for your feedback! Keep creating, and definitely make some mini scrolls! 💗
Always,
Irene xxx
I think I can use the dental floss in some of the harness pieces I am going to attempt as sometimes its impossible to get thin enough leather with the required flexibility. I found that nail art caviar beads are a pretty good substitute for the mini nails as they give the effect without the cutting. I have some of that diamond glaze, dimensional glue/glaze and wondered if that could be used to raise the illuminations in the text a bit? This is wonderful, its like Christmas and I can get all my book and scroll needs to add detail to the big house. I also watch Thicketworks as shes done some beautiful Medieval settings which, unfortunately for me require a cricut machine, however lots of her ideas do translate both in scale and in the actual builds. If you think thats fiddly try doing 1:18th scale harness, this really looks like it will be helpful as it behaves like soft leather straps and I can see me getting a lot of use from the dental floss!
Hi Anne! 💗
You are welcome to use (and try) anything that your heart desires, or that you have lying around in your workshop. It's amazing what 'eureka' moments one can have with the simplest of supplies! Yeah, nail art supplies are just the best... bling, gold, texture. I CANNOT imagine working in 1:18th scale, it feels so incredibly difficult and seemingly needs more fiddling than my soul could handle! I honestly salute you! 😊👏🏼
I also follow Thicketworks... she is incredible! And yes, I do have a Cricut Maker, but I have yet to use it! Shameful actually, but there are so many ideas in my head that still have to come to light, so the Cricut has to wait a little longer!
I'm so glad the dental floss could help you... yaaay! 👏🏼 And that you can use some of my minis for your house📜💗
Love, Irene xxx
Omg beautiful..can I come live at your place please hahaha x
Ps I've only got and use my mobile..I was looking at something like a tablet size device. Can I download from a tablet? Thanku
Hello Karen!! 💗
Oh my word... how did I miss your comment???? 😲 I've only come across it now! I'm SO, SO sorry!! 😔
Thank you for the enthusiasm and love 😘... you are so welcome to come and create with me!! I live half way around the world, though!! 🥹😔
I'm so glad you like the mini illuminated scrolls... yes, you can buy them with any device and get the printables downloaded even on your mobile. But then you have to print them, so maybe email them to a device that you can print from. Or save them on a USB and take them to a printing shop to do that.
Have you come right since then? Please let me know...! 💗💗
Irene xx
Such beautiful work and very well explained,I'd love to try these now that UV showed how thank you👌💖
Thanks so much, Brenda! 😊💗
It's so good to hear that the video is easy to follow, and that people can see themselves replicating the process! 👏🏼😊
I'm glad you feel inspired... yes, jump in and create your own little treasures! 🪶📜💗
Irene xx
Your work is amazing! Beautiful work!
Thank you so much, Hannie! All the effort and time is worth it because of people like yourself!! 💗👏🏼
Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into these tutorials, with all the links as well and free downloads! These scrolls are so realistic and brilliant and you are such a super talented and creative lady! I need these for my little medieval with and her cottage! : )
Hello Annette... you are so very welcome! 😊🥰 Appreciation from a viewer really goes a long, long way! 💗💗
It's great to hear that the mini scrolls look realistic... that's music to the ears of any miniaturist! 👏🏼 I wish you great joy in making them 📜😊
Always, Irene xxx
I love your video tutorials so much! Looking forward to giving these little scrolls a try!
Thank you, Michelle!! 🌸💗
Yep, definitely try these out... they are gorgeous to roll and unroll 😊... not to mention the tiny wax seals!! ❤️❤️
Just have fun 💗📜
I am getting started in making book nooks and you are an awesome help with my journey. I hope you do map's and portraits at some point. You are amazing!
Hello Will!
How wonderful that you are making book nooks! I am also only a beginner! Don't let anything put you off... I'm sure your work is wonderful 💗💗

chistine winkelman small world of miniatures What talent
Hello Christine 💗😊... thank you for the kind words. I'm so happy you enjoyed it 😘😚. Creativity is inside us all 🖌️🎨💗💗
i should be studying for college, but instead im here learning how to make replicas of ancient manuscripts cause somehow my brain says this is more usefull.
Oh John... you really made me laugh!!! 👏🏼🤗💗 I'm so glad you found my channel and at least had a few minutes of relaxation between your gruelling studies! 📖😊
I would argue that your brain is telling you right, but deep down I know that an education is also very useful!! Godspeed with your studies!
PS. Miniatures are magical... you can always create them on the side (or full time) if they really capture your heart 💗💗
Love, Irene xxx
These are incredibly beautiful! Do you offer any printable books or scrolls for 1:24 scale?
Hello Ays 😊 thank you!
I've had customers scale these printables down, producing beautiful 1:24 scale scrolls!
1. Use Adobe Acrobat Reader as your default PDF viewer… you have more options to change size and other printing preferences.
2. When you're in ‘Print’ file, choose Custom Scale 50%
The same goes for the mini books! There are 2 more steps:
3. Click on ‘Pages’… and choose Page 1 only.
4. Make sure the paper is snug against the top / bottom of the tray. Print the first page (Page 1). Take that printed page and turn it over in the printer tray so as to face correctly (determine the way your printer needs to draw and roll paper through. First practice with a blank piece of paper and mark it to track the direction). Make sure the paper is snug against the top/bottom of the tray again. Then print page 2 on the back of the first page. You’ll have the back to back printing as you did in 1:12 scale!
I've tried it on my own printer, and it works… I hope yours does too!
Let me know... 😊

Thank you💓I will follow the directions.
Pretty sure you were a monk in your last lifetime.
Ha ha ha! 😁 Thank you!
Everything 'Medieval' makes me happy 💗... I love the detail, artistry and workmanship of those times ⚜️💗
The monks made the illuminated books and scrolls, so perfect :D@@ladyminiac
@@Elysian777 yes, that's right, so I guess I'm part monk 😁💗📜
