  • Hi guys! I’m back with an easy tutorial on how to make a functional sliding window. This diy miniature is super cute and only requires a few simple supplies! Enjoy! ☺
    I’m just getting over a cold so apologies if I sound super congested

    From a new viewer who just made TWO of your projects on my own already, just want to say thanks for all the inspiration Cath. You really made me fall in love with even trying to make miniatures. I've watched a lot of makers, but your approachable style and simple materials made me pull the trigger and start making things of my own. Right now, I am just making miniature furniture but hope to make kits and houses like you soon.
    Thanks for all the help and videos. Keep up the great work :)

    Oh Wow you are so amazing, Cath - I guess you also can use this method to make a sliding patio door. Make it larger and turn it 90 degrees. Using a nail file is a brilliant tip 👍

    As always, you make the impossible look completely possible! I was going to make a mini log cabin (or just a wooden cabin, lol) and these will be a perfect addition! I think I could even tweak it to make a sliding “glass” door! Thanks for the video. It’s always a pleasure to watch them.

    April 10, 2021----Thanks for the video/helpful tip. But now looking at it in different ways. First, doing this in 1/35th scale for some zombie/apocalypse dioramas in mind, like for homes and apartments. Use those clear sheet protectors from Dollar Tree for glass. Make several window frames and the windows themselves out of strips of sheet styrene, then make a silicone mold of them. This way I can mass produce different sized window frames and windows at a time in resin. Yeah, I know....I am such a lazy individual, but when I get to building things, I like having LOTS of supplies on hand, ready to use.

      Same. Wouldn't a coat of something clear (glue, resin, gloss) be better than gauge marks if the point is to make it more noticable?

    I don't think scratching the windows is needed. Window glass isn't scratched. It just makes them appear fake to me. Otherwise its a nice simple to understand tutorial that I appreciate.

    I recently found your channel and I’m thoroughly enjoying it! I’ve made several of your projects so far and can’t wait to try this one. Thank you so much for adding links to where you purchase the materials. I was able to order battery boxes from EBay and lights from Bangood. I never would have found them without your links. Please keep the videos coming! My daughter and I love the way you throw the sticks.

    Hey, would you ever considering doing a video series on making a 1:12th scale dollshouse / roombox completely from scratch? I love the look of the kits but they dont fit the sizes i want without them becoming ridiculously expensive as i dont have a very big budget. Im loving the 12th scale features i can implement into my own design like the fireplace and these windows :)
