Today I discovered the dispenser in a glue stick is perfect for little terracotta planters

Now I have something to look forward to when my glue stick runs out 😅

As stated I'm new to this wonderful world, but I have wanted to build and create for a long time!

I wonder if you guys can give me some tips on materials I need to get started, tools, paints and such!

Thank you in advance!

Granny’s Treasures

My Granny recently passed away. She was a lifelong builder of miniature scenes and dollhouses (please forgive if I’m not using the right terminology, I know she would say they’re not toys!). These are just a few that I brought home that I thought we may have room to display. I’m not exaggerating when I say there are easily a hundred of scenes and houses like this. Some smaller, some much bigger.

This brings me to my question for you all. Can anyone help me as to what to do with all these items? If everyone in my family took some, we still wouldn’t be able to display them all, and I definitely don’t want to see them thrown away. She had too much time/money/love in them for that.

As far as I know, the local club she was in doesn’t exist anymore and I don’t know where to start. Also, I’m not the executor of the estate, so I really have no say, just trying to get an idea.

Thanks

Old-style ovens/stoves

Hello! Long time reader, first time poster.

I wanted to share these images of my first scale furniture designs and prints. Somewhat older style stoves, I designed them to be less ornate than a lot of models you see, more like those you might have found in working kitchens or less affluent households. The black and brass oven is in 1:12 scale, and three in various paint schemes in 1:24 scale.

Thanks for looking :)

Mini Butter Squishies- Free Printable

I made these 1 inch tiny butter squishies in salted and unsalted 😁🧈 they’re easy to make with just the printable on regular paper, packing tape, and a little stuffing. Here’s how I made them & the free printable if you’d like to make some of your own! Would love to see if you make some of your own 🥰

Elements of my first big project

I found the courage to post my work after a long time of admiring others'.

I've been doing random things since i was a preteen (mostly doll clothes) but a while ago i started building a house out of a broken miniature greenhouse. I've got things set up for the coffee corner (i wish i had those in human size tbh) and a little scroll box. Far from perfect but i'm still happy with them.

I'll come back when i assemble the kitchen, because for that room i have most of the elements ready

-lighter for scale cause i didn't use the standard scale system
