      The Square to Spare Thank you for making and sharing these! I always wished I had the money for the older Hemnes wardrobe. They redesigned it and I feel it lost all of its charm! But thanks to your videos, I feel it might not be out of reach, at lease not in miniature. If you wanted to try your hand at it, here's a link to a site that has an external picture. It's the taller wardrobe to the left.

    Sooo I just finished making my little desk ^^ Took me a bit longer than I expected. I started around 11pm...it is now almost 3 am xD Whoops I should probably sleep. I am proud of my desk but it's not nearly as perfect as yours. Seeing as how I did not have the proper size wood. I improvised and used the jumbo popsicle sticks rather than the plywood you used. But I painted it spring lilac with wild strawberry drawers. I'm not one for light colors but I'm giving it to my mom ^^ Thanks so much for the cool idea, I hope my mom likes it ^^

    So awesome! I have an idea for this: paint it all black and use a piece of glass (from a picture frame or similar) for the top piece!

    • @TheSquaretoSpare
      @TheSquaretoSpare  8 років тому +2

      Ohhh!!! That's such a good idea! Oh man I wish I talked to you before I finished this! Now I have to make another one in black with glass. ^-^

  • @kerrysmall8764
    @kerrysmall8764 8 років тому +4

    I'm loving the modern future you're making hun. So cool! Quick question, what's that orange thing called that you use to saw the wood on? I could do with one for sawing angles. Great video as always! :)

    • @TheSquaretoSpare
      @TheSquaretoSpare  8 років тому +2

      Thank you!! I've been on a furniture kick recently ^-^. That's just a little miter saw. It does great at making 90 degree/45 degree cuts and makes my life so much easier. The one I'm using is just from amazon for under $12. I have the link to it in my description :)

    • @kerrysmall8764
      @kerrysmall8764 8 років тому +1

      The Square to Spare Cool! Thanks hun. :)

  • @RCRice
    @RCRice 9 місяців тому

    When you use inspiration from real-life furniture, or pieces originally 1/1 scale, do you get your measurements simply by converting the original dimensions to 1/12 scale? For example, since the top of your miniature desk is 4.5 inches wide, can I assume the real desk is 54 inches wide? (Thanks in advance and thanks a million for all the insight you share!)

    Are u using coffee stirrer? I hope I get that right. Because most coffee stirrer here are plastic or they just use popsicle stick. It's the same material as the guitar's side, right?

    • @TheSquaretoSpare
      @TheSquaretoSpare  8 років тому +1

      Yes you got it right. They're coffee stirrers. Most are plastic but some are wood. I like using wood for my coffee because I don't like plastic in hot drinks :P. They also double as super awesome crafting supplies :D

    A question... do you do your projects in rigorous scale ? I mean.. its important to keep the measures just like the real furniture :} 1/12 is the ideal scale! Great videos!

    • @TheSquaretoSpare
      @TheSquaretoSpare  8 років тому +1

      I sure do! :) Everything I build is in 1/12 scale unless I state otherwise. You're right that it's important to keep the measurements like just real furniture because it makes it look more realistic. And thank you so much!

    • @pedrofeliperocha8514
      @pedrofeliperocha8514 8 років тому

      You should consider buying a 1/12 figure like this below.. it would be useful to make your models look even more realistic! www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=FIGURE-014603
