Outstanding instructional video! From the clarity and speed to musical choice. Your attention to detail is exquisite and your ability to impart the information is so appreciated. Thank you!
This is fantastic. Was going to be another one i tried until i saw all the holes and weaving. I'm gonna have to sit this one out and just admire your work. 🎉
Oh my goodness, thank you SO MUCH for your detailed videos! I’m just watching to learn right now, but collecting all of the materials so I can make my own furniture (I have 3 houses, in 3 very different styles 😬 😱😅). I really appreciate your artistry and that you include measurements and materials.
I do not have the patience to pull this off, preferring nearly instant gratification 😂. Such a wonderful talent you have, I'm constantly in awe of your skills ❤
Absolutely incredible what you have made. I was going to make one of these for my project, but after watching this video I think this is beyond my capabilities and patience. So will have to give it a miss until I have the skills to do so. But well done, great workmanship. Cheers Robyn ❤😊
Thank you Robyn💕😊 You can always give it a go. The chair was meant to be a lot simpler but I always get carried away. The first 'weaving' part took me a long time to make but it's because I was watching how the real cane chair makers weave the canes and I kept making mistakes😊 The second one was so much quicker to make after I learnt the process.
Yes, as they say “practice makes perfect “. I think it could be done on a bigger frame first until you get the hang of it and then do it on the smaller scale. Was fascinated by the needle as I have not seen anything like that before. The only thing that comes close is the needle threader and I don’t think that would be very successful. Anyway thanks for sharing, you really did a fantastic job. Cheers Robyn ❤️
WOW, this is an absolut awesome chair. So cute and so well done. I‘m looking for an idea making chairs, and now I have found… Now I can‘t wait making… Thank you so very much for this Video…🥰🥰🥰
Never had such calm feeling during Fibromyalgia flare. Heaven sent us a gift.😊💁🏻♀️🌼💚🌼🇨🇦 Ps, ty for sharing video music used in all your information. I check the (more...) option plus the bottom info. Appreciate it so much. Love you dear.😢I think my brain just exploded...🤦🏻♀️😁
Thank you so much💕 💕 you are so kind. I'm glad you like the video. I'm so sorry to hear you suffer from fibromyalgia. It is so horrible. Sending you healing thoughts.
@@tinycraftlife Wow! That is so impressive. I think what sets your work apart from others is your amazing skill with the tiny details, and getting it all just right. I can't get enough of it, hashaha!!!
What remarkable work! The result looks so real! 😍🤯 This technique seems so out of reach that I'm going to abandon the miniatures! Just kidding, I can't live without it! and I just realized that I have a lot of room for improvement! 😅😅 💞💞💕💕
@@tinycraftlife thank you, you are so kind! I won't stop because I'm inspired by people like you who share their talent and their love of miniatures! thank you for your work. 💞💞💕💕
so gorgeous!! just subscribed, thanks for the amazing tutorials. i've been wanting to try this technique and will definitely come back to this video when i do!
Wow so painstaking! I am very impressed, I think I would have lost patience trying to drill all the holes, never mind weaving the rattan part lol. It's such a beautiful creation, you should be very proud of it!
Thank you 😊💕 Drilling the holes was so tedious 😂It was slow going weaving the first part of the seat and trying to understand the pattern 😂 The other one was much quicker to make. I want to make a 1:12th scale chair now that I know how to weave the pattern but not looking forward to drilling the holes. I wonder if there's a small battery operated drill?🤔
@@tinycraftlife Im sure a Dremel type tool would do the job but they're not cheap to buy...well they aren't here in New Zealand anyway. But it's on my tool dream list hahaha. Gosh I would adore a rattan chair like that for my dollhouse, I am so envious of yours!
I’ve just started watching the video, did I miss what the wood is. You seem to have been able to cut it fairly easily, really want to have a go as I think the finished chair is just beautiful.
Thank you very much💕😊 I used 2 mm thick plywood as it was strong enough to drill the holes in. Only problem with the plywood is that some of the layers might chip off. Any hard wood is good to use. Balsa wood might be too soft for the weaving part.
Love this chair and enjoyed doing the weaving, after I figured out the error in the instructions and redid it all. I think I can figure out all of the missing measurements, like the arms and the cutout where the back joins the seat, but it would be very helpful if you would be able to tell me the length to cut for the legs, please. Thank you for sharing this beautiful project.
You are very welcome 💕 I do apologise for the errors. I made a few mistakes when weaving and redid them a couple of times and I must have accidentally added the mistake parts / video clips when editing the video (there were many😂). Glad you managed to figure out the weaving though. The length of the legs for this chair are 25 mm. Please don't hesitate to message me if you have any more questions.
@@tinycraftlife Thanks so much for your sweet reply. I did make the chair, guessing at arm measurements and using 3mm for the legs, placing them on the inside. I had done some real chair caning in the far distant past, so I think that helped with the weaving. The caning should have a border around it - just filling the gaps between rows, from hole to hole, to create a nice finished edge, so I did that and am very pleased with the little chair. Looking forward to more videos.
@@deniselocke559 I'm so happy you finished the chair. I can imagine it looks wonderful. I watched some chair caning videos to try to understand the weaving. I'm tempted to try to make the chair again but in a different style and slightly larger in size. I would also love to weave a real size chair, maybe one day😄
@@tinycraftlife Here in the U.S., there is a kit available to cane just a small foot stool, the perfect way to try it out and see if you like caning. Maybe you can find something similar in NZ. It can get a bit messy, as I recall, as you have to soak the cane and then keep it wet while working. I will make your chair again too, I think, as I didn't do the arm carving, just made them flat. I did carve the legs and back, and it was easier and quicker than I expected. Great project, thanks again!
I don't mean to be rude, but I found it was getting a little tedious to watch...UNTIL...the design started taking shape, then I couldn't take my eyes off it coming together. AMAZING job, well done.
Thank you 😊💕 😄Oh I know what you mean 😄 It is a bit annoying to watch something repetitive but I hope it's clear enough for anyone who wants to try the weaving process.
This is a great tutorial. Thank you for sharing. The chair is beautiful and watching the process was quite relaxing. I like to do handwork things like this while riding in the car on long trips. Also, where did you get the needle?
Fabulous work and the patience you have just wow 🤯 question: how long did it take you in real time to finish that chair? I might try to make one 😅 depending on how long it took you 😂 and what wood did you use for the chair? Thank you for sharing your amazing talent ❤
Thank you😊💕As @cubcakes9815 mentioned, the needle is a beading needle. They can be found in different lengths too. I bought mine on Amazon but I'm sure they are available on other shops/websites. It was the only really thin needle I had so I used it for the weaving. The first weaving took me a while to get right but the second one was much quicker.
@karakreations1103 Thank you so much 💕😊Unfortunately this is not a quick make. Drilling the holes was tedious and took some time but making the rest of the wooden parts took me a couple of hours. I watched real Cane chair weaving processes and tried to figure out the technique. To be honest, it took me about 3 hours to make the first 'weaving' (the seat) but that was between stopping to watch the making of a cane chair and me getting things wrong. After I understood the process and the technique, the back of the chair took me about an hour to weave. I hope I have made the process clear in my video. For the wood I used 2 mm thick plywood as it was strong enough to drill the holes in. One annoying thing about the plywood is that some of the layers might start to chip off. I just used glue to glue them back on. I think balsa / bass wood might be too soft so any wood that is hard enough to drill the holes in is best for the weaving part.

I did struggle with this. I did learn a lot though so hopefully the next time will be a lot easier😊
@@tinycraftlife In France, we say that it is in forging that one becomes a blacksmith.
Do you have pattern to send to me?
So sorry, there is no pattern. I usually work without drawing patterns. I have a rough idea but mostly I make them up as I go along 💕😊
