    Hey, Ginger Lola- The Ikea bead toy could be used in a backyard for your little Barbie kids to have a playground equipment toy. You could have built an entire backyard scene. That would have been sooo cute. The watches you could have taken the straps off and made unique clocks for the walls of your doll houses. The little brown wooden box you could have put at the foot of your Barbie bed. I like the brown wooden mat- I agree, you can use as a wall in the doll house. The SHORA garage sale had a lot of really unique items. I saw some things I would have used in a doll house. The small picture frames would have made great windows in a doll house. You got a great deal on the Turkish good luck charm. I agree- it is too cute. I like to make my own Barbie Dream Houses from MDF and cardboard boxes. Currently I have 10. (I can store up to 15 in my doll room.) Like you, I love working on them and adding to them. The lttle fish on the pole is cute. The coasters would look good on a table top. I fell in love with the metal jewelry with the eye (13:58) as I could see them in one of my dollhouses. Beautiful. The garage sales in your area are really nice. The garage sales in my area have a lot of junk. By the way, I love the music in this video. Sooo relaxing. Thanks for sharing. I truly enjoyed your video.

      Hey Sharon, how are you? Great idea for the backyard playground :) I have already collected a few watches to make clocks for the rooms, that will be in an upcoming video. Wow, I would love to see your doll room, I wish I had the space to display my dollhouses and dioramas. Thank you soooooo much for watching, yup the new music is definitely more relaxing :) have an awesome day my friend!

    Love the wooden Matt that can be used for your brick walls or for a feature wall in bedroom….i saw you thought twice about those rectangular necklaces and you should’ve brought them because they make great perfume bottles. Love the elephants.

    Definitely agree on the coasters as table tops, but too brilliant e that room. Maybe you need to do a sunroom or a morning coffee balcony. I wanted the "Witch Parking Only" sign to go over the best seat in the living room, and that streaked brown wig to reroot some dolls. Be sure to hang the evil-eye amulet from the elephants on the purse you take bargain hunting.
    As for the leftover wood, I use all kinds of wood to craft furniture in 1:6.

    Thanks for taking us along; funny how the most things that people don't use any more are ceramics, glass objects and picture frames. I always make windows or room box-bases (after taking out the glass and filling it up with cardboard and wood-putty and then cover with coffeestirrers for a nice wooden floor)out of picture frames. I found the same wooden place mat some years ago and put it in my little pieces wooden cabinet; if you spray-paint the wooden pieces with stone texture you can use them as stones on an outside wall. You can also make stone structure on anything using a mixture of wood-putty and birdcage sand and acrylic paint. I love the elephants :)

    Great stuff at that church sale! I probably would have gotten both the coasters and trivets, I can visualize Barbie dining al fresco on one of those flowery cafe tables in a restaurant diorama. Loved it all! The living room aesthetic is always evolving, I love how the elephants and brass decoration look on the mantle. SOOOO enjoy these videos, thank you so much for providing some relaxing content.

      Thank you :) last weekend, I tried taking some driving shots :) that video will be premiering this Saturday at 11am, I haven't seen the footage yet, so i'm hoping it looks good .... weather is calling for rain this Saturday so I'm a little upset about that, even if it doesn't rain, anyone who wanted to have a garage sale will probably postpone it till next weekend. Definitely... that's why i love garage sales :)

    Great scores. You have such a great imagination. I wish you were doing 1/12 scale. I tend to have a harder time finding things to repurpose in that scale which is the one I do. But so glad for you. You are so fun to watch.

      @GingerLolaMiniatures  7 місяців тому

      i'm not done with them yet, the best in black diorama is almost finished, i guess i move on to the next, i keep the furniture in bins, and i'm keeping the walls, maybe for another diorama series, but i would like to make a whole new wall with new windows.
