Hi, I came over from Darkest Raven Designs. Old clothes from thrift stores is the best way to find unique fabric for miniatures and such. I do it all the time.
Hi Christi, welcome and thank you for popping on over. Your are completely right about that thrifting is a great way of finding beautiful fabrics, I always look for lace xxx
Your balloon looks absolutely amazing! You've put so much work into it and from our chats I know how long you've been working on it. Thank you for the collaboration and stay in touch, my friend! x
Thank you chantal for your comment and the collaboration,sorry for the late reply, still trying to reply to everyone, I've never had so many comments. Hope all is well and am looking forward to seeing your new project on Friday 😃
Aww thank you Tina, and welcome. Am glad you like it. Watched Chantals video and I love that she put hers in a frame, I never would of thought of that, looked magic lit up, I just love her crafts :)
I came over also from Chantal’s channel. I love the end result but was a bit disappointed not to see how you made the ladder and control panel and how you attached everything inside, you can show all of that but speed up the footage with music or a voiceover as we watch it. Sometimes it’s good to see how intricate things are made and how much attention to detail. It satisfies the soul 😊
Hi Charolotte, thank you for youf comment. I can completely understand about wanting to see me do everything, normally I do a full step by step in my video's, but I was having real trouble with this one. I actually edited the video 5 different times, every time it went over 19 minutes, it started to jump and wouldn't run properly. 3 hours before the video went live, I had to start editing it again from scratch, i had to take a lot out which I was so upset about, but it was that or no video. I would of liked to have done it into parts but because if the collaboration I put it in one. I will do better in the future:)
Thank you, Darkest Raven sent me over. I really enjoyed your steampunk balloon. I hadn't thought of using the hallow interior for the diorama. Thanks again. John S.
Also here from Darkest Raven. That hot air balloon is an absolute masterpiece!! I think it's the best steampunk miniature I've seen! So happy I came here :-)
This is amazing! Darkest Raven Designs sent me here. I'm sooooo glad I decided to check out the other side of the collaboration! Now I feel the need to make something Steampunk!
Welcome and thank you, its the first #steampunk project I have ever made, am so happy with the results, its also made me want to do more steampunk crafts, planning on making a steampunk doll at some point :)

Aww Chrissie what wonderful and lovley comment, it really did make me smile. Am so happy that you like it, was worth all the heard work, and never dreamed that it would get the response it has. Hope your keeping well 😃 xxx
I came from Chantels Chanel..I am pleased I did now ..This is absolutely wonderful.I love all the intricate details..Very well thought out and beautifully made..Such a Gorgeous piece of art..I hope you can hang it up and display it after all that work.You could have tied them together sideways with leather laces .But I lov how it turned out 🥰
Hi Christine and welcome so nice of you to pop on over from Chantels channel. I am so glad you like the balloon, it has been one of my favourite projects that I have made, and was well worth all the time and effort. Originally my idea was to attach them side by side as you suggested, at the time unfortunately I didn't have a small drill to be able to put holes in the side of the balloon so I could tie them together, but I do now do might have a go at it again. Hope your having a wounder week 😊
Hi Jo! I also come from Chantal's channel and I am very happy you guys did this collab. I love your take on that prompt, it is so detailed and intricate (: You both did very different ballons, with different media, it is really interesting. You are quite right to be proud of it, it's gorgeous! And thanks for the tip to shape foam! (:
Welcome Alex and thank you for such a lovley comment. Am so glad Chantal agreed to do the collaboration, I came across here channel a few months ago and fell in love with here crafts :) As for the foam, or something I saw quite a while ago and wanted to try out. Am really glad I do as I love the effect it gave and I'll definiaty be doing more with foam in the future :) xxx
Hi angie and welcome, so glad you popped on over from chantals Channel, thank you for taking the time to watch my video, hope your well and having a good week 😀
This is amazing!!! I came over from Chantals channel and i've subscribed to your channel. I look forward to watching more of your videos. Hugs from West Virginia USA
Thank you Joela, I tried my best with the project, definitely my most ambitious project but am looking forward to working on more bigger projects in the future 😃
Thank you Cath, am amazed at how well it turned out. Am hoping to make smaller ones at Christmas, different style and they will not open. But I think they would look pretty in blue, white and silver :) xxx
Thank you Hazel, am so glad you like it. I love Chantals balloon, it was really interesting to see our different take on it, we went down to completely different paths. I love that she added it to a frame and when it was lit up at the end it was magical :)
Thank you Debbie, I can honestly say this is my favourite project that I have made up to now, but already looking forward to my next big project :) xxx
Welcome and thank you. Am so glad I took the time to do the pipe work, it took forever waiting for the pipes to dry, could only do a couple at a time so I could stick them in place and them measure the next few, but was well worth it in the end 😃
Really lots of effort, and it is clearely visibile in the end result. Love it, and love how you designed it in details. I’ve come from Darkest Reven Design, but I think I’ll stay ❤️
Aww thank you Marcella welcome and thank you for stopping by and hopfully staying. I really do live making this balloon and all the hours put into it was definitely worth it in the end 😀 xxx
Oh my goodness Jo... to say this is amazing doesn't seem a word to do it true justice ..your artistic flare and imagination is fantastic.. well done xxx
I am new to your channel but I have to say THIS IS AMAZING!! I came over from Darkest Raven Design to which I am also new. I started out with Bentley House Minis and just fell down this minis rabbit hole to which I am soo grateful. You are a very talented artist.
Aww thank you for such a lovley comment, like you I found darkest raven design and then Bentley House of minis, I too fell down the rabbit hole and am so glad I did, there are some incredibly talented people on TH-cam 😀
Wow! This really was quite the undertaking. You did an amazing job! Oh, and Chantel sent me and I was happy to subscribe! Can't wait to watch more in the future!
Aww thank you Karen, and welcome, you are completely right, it really was an undertaking, when I started it, i knew I would be pressed for time through the whole thing. I gave it everything i had, and I love it. 😃 x
Welcome Natasha, thank you for popping in over to my channel. Am glad you like my work, only started crafting last year, so I still have a lot to learn :) xxx
Oh my, I can not believe the talent of people and you are right up there with them all!. I watched Dark Ravens Video on your collaboration and just had to come and check out what you had done. You are both so very very creative and talented and I thank you both for sharing your awesome creativeness with us all!
Welcome and thank you for such a lovely comment, am so glad that you liked both of our balloons. It was great to see how we both took the idea and did something completely different. I love chantals channel, and extremely glad I found here channel, she is inspirational 😃 xxx
Wow it is amazing what people can create. It looks wonderful I really like what you did. Both you and Channel did such great jobs. It is so cool what you can create with out at kit from a store. Thanks for sharing your project.
Hi debbra, so glad that you like both our projects. I try my best to make as much stuff as I can for my projects, once I learn the art of sculpture there will be no stopping me, which am going to have to do some at some point soon, as I need some bits for Halloween 🎃 😊
Very nice and beautiful build The Balloon looks awesome but very crowded, there is very limited room to work for a crew and no place to rest/live while on flight...
Thank you, originally I was hoping to put their furnes and control panel in one side and then I was going to do the living quarters on the other, but there just wasn't enough space :( but your totally right there really could of done with some space for the crew :)
Aww thank you Tracey, am so glad you like it. Your right about me being a perfectionist, I think its because am a virgo, it takes me twice as long to make things but its worth the extra time hehe 😃
Thank you Jo. This was Amazing ! I've been away awhile....life throws some curveballs 🙄 So good to see you again and what an ambitious project, great job👍👍
Thank you Elaine, I really wanted to try and make it look as real as I could. And am blown away by how it turned out. I really don't think I'll top this one :) xxx
Hi Jo 😍 wow this is amazing! I had been chatting with Chantal and she mentioned the collab and I so glad she did 🤩 I love both pieces you have created. I'm pretty awful at anything 3d so finding another channel where I can get some tips is great! I love the repurposed fabrics/leather and how you used them. Thank you for sharing (now I think I need to do some binge watching)
Hi Katy, thank you for stopping on by. Am so glad you like what we both created. Iv just popped on over to your channel and subscribed 😃 I look forward to settling down to night and checking out some of your videos 😃
Welcome Zona and thank you for your comment. The metal rings are a fabulous idea, i would never thought of that, i will have to have a look on amazon and see what I can find 😀
Aww thank you Jacqueline, I really wanted to try and make it as realistic as I could. It was a joy to make and definitely my favourite project I have made. I hope your keeping well and enjoying your week :) xxx
You should go the ceiling panel with a fake clouds made and simply hang the both pieces on there. This way you can always open it up as a book and it won't fall down. Just get some small metal chain attached to one side and a hook on the other side. When opened up you simply hold the pieces from falding back by chain. It will look half open like a book and will be able to hang of the ceiling. This way you get the entire diorama and a story behind it. Otherwise amazing work.
That is absolutely incredible! I will have to try something like that but I have no hope of even coming close!!! U should go into set design for movies or something? Your imagination is boundless. Well done, absolute genius, thank u for sharing ~ Nikki
This is amazing! You worked so hard and I love your ideas. I havw shared this video with my crafty friends and you have given me a great idea for my steam punk halloween decorations this year.xx
Aww thank you, so sweet of you. I put everything I had into this project and am so happy with it, my first steampunk craft and it definitely will not be my last, am hoping ti do a steampunk doll and steam train at some point and maybe a hat So glad that I gave you an idea, would love to know what your planning 😃 xxx
Thank you Viv, I am really proud, I keep looking at it and thinking I made that, iv no idea how I managed it, but am so glad I did. Looking forward to working on my garden next. Hope your having a fantastic weekend :) xxx

Very nice and beautiful build The Balloon looks awesome but very crowded, there is very limited room to work for a crew and no place to rest/live while on flight...
Thank you, originally I was hoping to put their furnes and control panel in one side and then I was going to do the living quarters on the other, but there just wasn't enough space :( but your totally right there really could of done with some space for the crew :)
That is amazing!
So much detail 👌😍
Thank you Louise so sweet of you :)
Darkest Raven sent me too.
Your steampunk balloon is absolutely phenomenal!😲
This is an amazing project! It's unusual and beautifully made. It shows your love of symmetry too 😉
Gorgeous project. Soo creative and beautiful. I love all the details. It is amazing. Tfs. Have a blessed day.
Aww thank you Lisa, so sweet of you. Just glad people like my balloon 🎈 ☺
Absolutely beautiful project, how about a steampunk top hat. Tfs
Thank you Clare for your comment and wonderful idea, its already on my list of things to make, as well as a steampunk doll and steam train 🚂 🙂
Very nice modelling great work
This is absolutely amazing, you are a perfectionist and the attention to detail is unreal. 👏👏👏⭐️⭐️⭐️
Aww thank you Tracey, am so glad you like it. Your right about me being a perfectionist, I think its because am a virgo, it takes me twice as long to make things but its worth the extra time hehe 😃

Hi Jo 😍 wow this is amazing! I had been chatting with Chantal and she mentioned the collab and I so glad she did 🤩 I love both pieces you have created.
I'm pretty awful at anything 3d so finding another channel where I can get some tips is great! I love the repurposed fabrics/leather and how you used them. Thank you for sharing (now I think I need to do some binge watching)
Hi Katy, thank you for stopping on by. Am so glad you like what we both created. Iv just popped on over to your channel and subscribed 😃 I look forward to settling down to night and checking out some of your videos 😃
I came over from darkest raven. I.Love your balloon and thinking that metal rings might work for the two half s.
Welcome Zona and thank you for your comment. The metal rings are a fabulous idea, i would never thought of that, i will have to have a look on amazon and see what I can find 😀
Wow... I'm speechless. This is so beautiful!!!
Aww thank you, I am so glad you like the balloon, very kind of you to say 😊
@@jojosbargainhuntandcrafts7314 🙂👍
I'm new here, came from Darkest Raven design
Welcome, thank you for stopping by, I hope you enjoy :)
@@jojosbargainhuntandcrafts7314 I'm sure I will 😊 thank you
Same, was not disappointed👍
O M G Jo this is amazing! the parts look like they could actually work. Excellent craftsmanship as always. Stay safe :) x
Aww thank you Jacqueline, I really wanted to try and make it as realistic as I could. It was a joy to make and definitely my favourite project I have made. I hope your keeping well and enjoying your week :) xxx
Oh wow! That's amazing. Came to check it out after seeing Darkest Ravens super glad I did.
Thank you Tasha for stopping on by and your comment, so kind of you 😃
You should go the ceiling panel with a fake clouds made and simply hang the both pieces on there. This way you can always open it up as a book and it won't fall down. Just get some small metal chain attached to one side and a hook on the other side. When opened up you simply hold the pieces from falding back by chain. It will look half open like a book and will be able to hang of the ceiling. This way you get the entire diorama and a story behind it. Otherwise amazing work.
Came from Darkest Raven. Really glad I checked this out. You are so talented. Your attention to detail is outstanding.
That is absolutely incredible! I will have to try something like that but I have no hope of even coming close!!! U should go into set design for movies or something? Your imagination is boundless. Well done, absolute genius, thank u for sharing ~ Nikki
What an amazing looking balloon
This is amazing! You worked so hard and I love your ideas. I havw shared this video with my crafty friends and you have given me a great idea for my steam punk halloween decorations this year.xx
