Your videos always seem to pop-up when I feel a little down. Something just makes me happy about tiny homes for tiny creatures. Who is going to live here.
Aww sending you lots of love and happy creative vibes inside a huge hug!! 🥰 I’ve been struggling a little myself lately. And I find working on projects like this helps so so much. There’s something healing about crafting ❤️🩹 I was thinking about the character for the last couple days but it’s still not telling me who it’ll be!! But these sneaky creatures will sometimes wait, then wake me up in the middle of the night, to whisper who they are after I asked all day. And I say to them, “can this wait?” And they always say, “Absolutely not!!!” ❤️🤣❤️
Amazing as always!!!🩷 I think I have an old suitcase in the basement..excited..something new I can work on while my she shed is being finished!!..soo glad u r back on here!!❤❤❤
İ am sorry so say this and hope it won't make you feel sad, but i miss your old workbench and all the magical world that was on it. Hope to see it on screan soon ❤
Your instructions are so relateable, clear, thoughtful and considered. You are an amazing teacher who shows that we can plan AND adapt as the need arises - the real way to teach (and to learn)... neuroplasticity and all that... I LOVE this idea! I am a horder by nature and I have acquired a number of vintage suitcases that I intended for those Suitcase-Markets... well, as you may have guessed, No Suitcase markets in my world for all manner of reasons, HOWEVER, the miniaturist in me is doing happy dances!!! THANK YOU FOR THIS INSPIRATION... and truth be told I am only at 1:46 time stamp. I love your videos, especially of the spooky tree and gnome 3-story-house. I am hooked. Thank you for making such relateable videos that inspire, enable and just have wonderful creative and caring vibes. All the best for 2024... Thank you!
Cool idea at upcycling the suitcase into a miniature house! You’re a great artist! Very inspiring. The storage pull tab would look great as a door knob. I put up two short videos of room dioramas I made, on my channel, if you want to take a look.
I know!! I am making a few things for the house from my travels tho. The stairs are made from a fan I bought in Venice!! And I made a pot out of 2 coins I found in the UK.. those will be posted asap
Wow this is amazing. You have so much talent for the creative arts it’s baffling to me. I love watching people create things from their imagination but I don’t think I could ever make something myself, I’m too impatient for the small minute details and the monotony would be too much for me, also I don’t have a creative bone in my body. You always amaze me with your beautiful whimsical creations straight from a story book!! Love your videos so much. Thank you for entertaining me and inspiring others to get creative crafty from every day supplies and junk, using what you already have or easily accessible is just priceless. Hope you and your family loved ones are all safe and healthy. Sending my best to you all. Hello from Australia 👍✌️✨🙏❤️💜
I love the way you explain your process, this is looking like its going to be such a fantastic project and I cant wait to see the next 2 videos on it! Thanks so much for sharing!
Ohh lol thank you!!! ❤️ That is the Luck Dragon. I made a very large one and this mini one on video, th-cam.com/video/W64qutSd83w/w-d-xo.htmlsi=PhQN_ZTNRV8Sl3pT
Today I was gifted with a vintage suitcase for an old sewing machine by the guys who own my favourite second hand shop. The sewing machine was broken so they gave me the suitcase. 😀 It's a different shape but I'll still make it work. The lid part is very shallow so I'll make it as a view with windows, but on the other side I'll work with you, but with whatever materials I have. I'm so excited 😀😍💜

Nice! Love that fireplace and can't wait to see how you did it.
