Hi Josje, Hope you are feeling a little better each day. We can hear it in your voice. An exploration of and description of items in your Canal House is always a treat. I would appreciate a tutorial on making tulips! Spring is on the horizon! Regards and thanks Janine
Thank you, I'm getting better! It seems like spring is here already. It's pretty warm for February, around 10C and many of my daffodils are about to burst into flower. Normally February is the coldest month of the year. I will do a tutorial on the tulips, but maybe I should wait until the real ones are in flower. 😃
Just mesmerized by your beautiful things. There's an old saying in the UK, that when someone is getting married it's called 'Tying the Knot' I bet that the Knot Chest is where that comes from! Thank you for your video. I'm visiting Minuatura at Stoneleigh next month, my first miniature event. I hopefully will see some beautiful things there in person😊
Yes! I never thought of that! This tradition must have the same roots as the knot box. I'll have to look into that. Thank you! Have fun at the fair in Stoneleigh next month! I have never been there but it's pretty big isn't it? 😃
I’m so sorry that you are under the weather! I hope that you will make quick progress toward full health! Thank you for this beautiful video. It is always such a treat to get a close look at these exquisite miniatures. I love that knot box. I’ve never heard of that. It’s so sweet and so beautiful!
Your dolls houses and all they contain are just magical!! I could spend hours looking at each little piece!! ... well, I WISH I could spend hours looking at each little piece: it's the kind of thing one dreams of! All the pieces are stunning, but it's also so fascinating learning the history behind each one and the artists who created them. I'd be happy to watch more such videos (though hopefully you will be better soon, so won't feel constrained to do so)... I'd also love to see how to make those beautiful tulips you showed at the end! thank you for a lovely video! kindest regards and best wishes for a speedy recovery, k
Thank you so much K! I have thought of making a 'focus on my collection' series of videos, maybe once a month or so. There's plenty to show 😉 I will do a tutorial for the tulips soon!
Take care Josje, we can wait! Love how the light comes into the window of the canal house, it truly makes it life-like as it bounces off the floor and shiny objects😊. Interesting to learn about the ‘knottekistje’, quaint! Also interesting to see the mechanism of the tea-table, will have a go at making one, albeit a very simple one without carving.
Thank you Coby. Someone in the comments just mentioned 'Tying the Knot'. It may have the same roots as the knottekistje, who knows. The mechanism of the tea table is quite simple. It would be fun to make one! 😃
Oh my gosh Josje what absolutely exquisite little treasures you have, they’re all so beautiful, hope you’re feeling better too sweetheart, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
Hi Josie, I am sorry you are feeling under the weather. I hope you feel better soon. I thought your video was charming with you sharing with us your miniature prized treasures. Also, I enjoyed learning about the knot box and the history behind it. I would love to see your tutorial on making the flowers. Thank you! 😊
Beautiful pieces. Make your extra lighting indirect. 💡 💡 Bounce it off a piece of white poster board. Serves two purposes, softens the light and gives less reflections of objects.
Thank you, that's a very good idea! To be honest, while filming this my brain felt like it was cotton wool... I will have to play with lighting a bit to see what works. 😃
Thanks for showing the table up close! I’ve made one but have always been a bit disappointed with the rather thin top and as I noticed that in your table the grain underneath is at a right angle to the top, I now know what I should do to remedy the slight warping! It does mean I have take it off to double up the table top, or replace it altogether with a better made one, thankfully it’s only attached with a brass rod.. would also love a tutorial on the parrot tulips.. Also love your silver collection and all the pottery! Hope you feel better soon!
Thank you Idske. Yes, glueing a second piece of wood with the grain running at a 90-degree angle to the first will certainly help to keep it from warping. I did that for a large table I made (the table in the blue roombox with the sliding doors, Miniaturist Journal 73) because the first tabletop I made for it did warp. Unless you have nice marquetry or a raised edge or something like that on your current tabletop, I would just make a new one for it. Okay, I'll work on a Parrot tulip tutorial! 😃
Thank you Beth! I'm not congested, I can breathe, but my throat hurts and it makes me cough. I'll be fine in a few days. I think I'll make 'focus on my collection' a regular feature in my videos or make it a video series. 😃
These are some of the most amazingly beautiful and intricate items I have seen in any collection. just found your channel and subscribed. Look forward to looking at earlier videos. You have exquisite taste, David.
Dear Josje, This room is such a favorite of mine, This collection is most beautiful, so unique, so charming, so Inspiring. Beautiful pieces. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆♧☆☆☆☆☆
Dear Josjse, first let me say l hope you are feeling much better.l am really jealous of all your beautiful things , did you start collecting some time ago I am a72 years old French woman living in England and started my Dollshouse passion at 40,although l had about 10 years of not too much interest.since being very ill l have started again with a vengeance. Thank you so much for your videos . Lots of love .
My pleasure, I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. I started collecting 20 years ago when I first got into miniatures. I'm sorry to hear you are very ill. I hope delving back into your old passion is giving you some relief and escape. It's so much fun and there's so much to discover. Thank you very much Laurence! 😃
Ah thank you! I looked at Mike Sparrow's and Jens Torp's websites and they both called them lamps (or spirit lamp). That's why I said that. Warmer makes sense though. 😃

The visit to your dolls houses is always fascinating and a wonderful history lesson to boot! I look forward to the tulip tutorial. Thank you xx❤
My pleasure Wendy! I'll be doing a Tulip tutorial soon. 😃

So tiny, love the apple tea caddy,it the beautiful glass piece, the tiny teacup that must have taken forever to paint and the knot chest.All gorgeous.
Thank you Susan! I enjoy looking at these pieces every day, I never get tired of them! 😃

Oh I'll be OK, thank you Jen. The knot boxes are mostly Frisian, 17th and 18th-century. 😃
I love that you show each items of your collections . Each pieces are amazing .We can not find master pieces like that nowadays .
Thank you so much! Well, new masterpieces are made all the time, we just have to discover them 😃

@@MakeMiniatures I was a photographer so technically it wasn’t my idea. Lol
Eash piece is amazing quality and just so beautiful. My favourite is the glass with the blue accents.
It's beautiful isn't it? I like that piece so much! Thank you Maroulio!

Bless your heart Josje, you sound congested. I hope you feel better soon. I loved looking at your amazing collection. 😊
Thank you Beth! I'm not congested, I can breathe, but my throat hurts and it makes me cough. I'll be fine in a few days. I think I'll make 'focus on my collection' a regular feature in my videos or make it a video series. 😃

Lovely little things❤

Thank you Judy! 😃
Fabulous pieces!!
Thanks so much! 😃
Wonderful video. ❤
Thank you Connie! 😃
The "lamp" is called a warmer.
Ah thank you! I looked at Mike Sparrow's and Jens Torp's websites and they both called them lamps (or spirit lamp). That's why I said that. Warmer makes sense though. 😃
Try *rubber tipped tweezers* for glass items.
Good idea, I'll put them on my wish list!
