  • Hey there! Cath here :) Today, I’m going to show you how to build these super modern miniature trestle desks. These are fully adjustable in height and only require a few simple supplies. We’ll mainly use some popsicle sticks for this project so grab some and join me on this fun DIY project. Enjoy!

    The best part when you throw those popsicle sticks. Oddly satisfying.

    I never intent to make any of these things but honestly it's so amazing to watch you making these things that I still watch everyone of your videos

    • @TheSquaretoSpare

      Aww thank you!! I currently store them on a little shelf but I'm building a dollhouse for all of it :)

    Just when I thought little things couldn't get much better you proved me wrong, and wonderfully so. Excellent!! Oh, and I was in Costa coffee on Saturday morning and they were short of coffee stirrers and I thought to myself "Hmmm... is The Square to Spare travelling globally now and hoisting all the stirrers??!" Lol 😂

    • @TheSquaretoSpare
      @TheSquaretoSpare  8 років тому +2

      Hahahaha that actually made me burst out laughing (loudly). Funny enough, I was at a coffee shop this weekend and my friend pointed to the wooden coffee stirrers and said "are those the type you use for crafts?" LOL I think I've been talking about minis too much. And I'm glad you liked this video :D Thank you so much!

      Nooooooooo you can't stop talking about minis! I can't go to my SM
      (Squareaholic Meeting) and say I'm suddenly cured lol. No, PLEASE keep
      doing what you're doing as it obviously gives you and so many others
      (myself included) so much pleasure. So thank YOU 😊 Long live the
      minis!!

  • @Devvolve
    @Devvolve 8 років тому

    I prefer the glass look cause it reminds me of a more modern desk, but the contrast between the white wood and the black legs also looks amazing.Great video!

    • @TheSquaretoSpare
      @TheSquaretoSpare  8 років тому +2

      Hehe right? I couldn't decide which one I liked better because they're so different but each has their own special look :D

  • @paulaunger3061
    @paulaunger3061 8 років тому

    Those are lovely! I guess if you painted the trestles with mod podge and put the acrylic table top on top before it was dry, you wouldn't even get a seam of glue...

    • @TheSquaretoSpare
      @TheSquaretoSpare  8 років тому

      Ohh true! Such a great idea :D

    @Leftosaurus 8 років тому

    These videos are reaaally well made and pleasant to watch. You're really charismatic keep it up :) Any chance you might also mention milimeters to the measurement for us European folk?

    • @TheSquaretoSpare
      @TheSquaretoSpare  8 років тому

      Thank you! :) I did that once in the subtitles of my mini mattress and pillow tutorial- would that be similar to what you're looking for? It's in cm though :P

    • @Leftosaurus
      @Leftosaurus 8 років тому

      Yeah sure, in the subs is fine, no need to audibly say it during the tutorial. I'd go for mm though as you're dealing wit mostly small measurements and you can avoid points altogether. As a rule of thumb 1 inch 25 mm (or 2.5cm), so to avoid that pesky point, I'd go for mm and round it up (so people can trim off any extra if pieces are just a hair too big) ;D
