- Sometimes You Just Have to Make Crafting and Life Easier 😊 Great Cheats / Hacks to Use to Make Minis. I Used Different Nail Art Stickers / Decals in 2D and 3D to Make Miniatures. I LOVE 3D Nail Art!! There are so Many Different Designs Available and Great for Making Miniatures. I Also Used 3D Metal Nail Art Embellishments (Great as Hardware Details), a Pack of Stickers / Decals, Flexible Adhesive Mirror Sheets, Button Battery Wire Fairy Lights, Imitation Gold Leaf, PVC Rigid Foam Board/ Chevron / Sintra Board, Nail Art Foil and Glue Gun Glue Sticks. Most of the Nail Art Stickers / Decals are from Shein and the rest of the products from Amazon. Hope You Enjoy Watching and Making!

I LOVE HOW YOU USED THE FLORAL DECALS IN THE BOTTOM OF THE PLATES! The Glue Sticks into Wine Bottles was so Clever! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS VIDEO!!
Thank you so much!! 💕😄 I am obsessed with the Nail Art decals LOL!! They are so perfect for miniatures. I have used the decals before but when I found out about the 3D ones, you should have seen my excitement 🤣
And the really interesting thing is that some antique full size plates and bowls were actually produced using various forms of transfer. I’ve accidentally ruined some by assuming they were painted or fired on, and discovering that they were transfers instead by scrubbing too hard! 😂 So using the nail art stickers in creating these tiny plates and bowls is true to life… as well as adorable. 😊
@@DawnDavidson 😄 Wow! I didn't know that. That is so interesting. I have a few old plates as ornaments. I think I have to be really careful when cleaning them 😊💕
Brilliant ideas, doll's house stuff is expensive.
Thank you! They really are expensive. I hope all these tips will be helpful and you can use them any way you want 😊💕
Also the ones you buy aren’t even that great anyways. You can make way prettier and more intricate things on your own
I loved the little wave in the mirror, very clever designs too!
😄 Thank you very much!! I couldn't resist waving 😊💕
Excellent!!!!!! 💕 (maybe cut the portraits slightly smaller than the frames _before_ sticking the frames on them though?)
Thank you! You are right, I should have cut them smaller first 😊💕
I'm pleasantly surprised how many details for nail art there are and can be used in miniature. Hot glue bottle is my love!
There are so many different designs available. They really are perfect for miniatures. I do like the bottle too 😊💕
What great tips! So simple but really effective to take things to the next level. You remind me I need to make better use of the supplies I have, but I often forget about them lol
I love the nail art stickers. Perfect for miniatures! 😄 I also have supplies I have collected for my crafts and I forget what I have lol 🤣💕
Omg the metallic nail art on the edge of the book looks SO REAL! And I love the wine bottle made of colored glue stick!
Thank you very much! I have to buy more of the metallic nail art and make more books for a miniature book shelf 😊💕
Fantastic ideas, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
You are very welcome! I love the Nail Art 3D and 2D stickers / decals. They are perfect for miniatures. So many designs available too 😊💕
Beautiful! Nail art for minis! I've been using nail art stickers on my peg dolls and nail brushes to paint them. It's cool that the nail stuff has gotten so popular - my fingernails are plain but the peg dolls I make have serious bling!
😄 They are so great! I wish I had discovered them a lot earlier. Definitely perfect for small items 😊💕
i love the calming music in this
Thank you very much 😊💕 Glad you like the music
Stop the cuteness over load!!😊😊😊😍😍😍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
😄 Thank you very much! 💕
Most facinating! Tfs
You are very welcome! 😊💕
It is a pleasure watching you.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your feedback and thank you for watching!! 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife I wished I could see it all upfront, but I am about 5,000 miles away from you. To see things through your eyes must be wonderful. I am at the moment throwing out my couch and stuff from my living room. I will make a craft room with space ( wonder how long it will be spacy) and daylight and my craft room in the basement will be only for my woodworking. I live alone, if I get guests we always sit in the dining room. And it's my house, so why not use the biggest room for me. The only thing I will leave in the living room is my big TV, so I can watch your videos up close with all my craft things around me. I am so excited about this,, especially because then I have space to hang my wreaths, my pictures and display my ceramics. And I will teach ceramics again. I did that for ten years, starting in 1986 and I enjoyed it very much. I was stopped in my tracks yesterday, with my washing machine breaking down. I took it apart last night, and the parts I need will come monday. Then I can restart again. Sometimes I feel really dumb, I am a 67 year old grandma, and I act as if I have another 50 years left 😊
@@pjackson2064 You are still very young!! and it's never too late to start new hobbies. I love ceramics too! I once did a short course and wish I would have pursued it more. It is so wonderful to work with clay. You should definitely start teaching again. There are so many people wanting to learn ceramics. What a wonderful idea to make your own craft room! I have a small room and wish it was much bigger. So much stuff that I have saved for crafting. It looks an absolutely mess at the moment 😂 I hope you get your washing machine fixed soon. Enjoy all the wonderful crafts! I am so excited for you!!!😄💕
@@tinycraftlife I made my first ceramic piece, in 1981, in a shop and I was so proud of it. Six months later I walked into a different shop and there I found out, that the first lady had absolutely no idea about her craft. I learned a lot from the lady in the second shop and when I opened my own in 1988 and could get my hands on all the glazes, under and overglazes, stains, wax, and techniques and I was so eager to learn. It helped a lot, that my best friend, who opened the shop with me, was an interior decorator with every cell if her body. And she made things, you would not believe. To this day I get angry, if I see ceramic pieces that are botched up. I seen some on etsy, I was almost crying out of anger, that people are so brazen to even offer such atrocities. I still have all my molds and my kilt from my store. They are in the second basement room. Please do not ask me about having things......
@@pjackson2064 I can imagine! It's great you still have all the equipment and the experience. You should definitely have to get back into making ceramics and start selling them. It's such a beautiful craft.
I'm making books and the tiny details looks so much better than my painting. Thanks!
You are very welcome! The Nail Art stickers / decals are perfect details for books. There's so many designs available too 😊
I did this at Christmas. I bought Christmas themed mail art, and placed it on clay plates and bowls I made. I love this! Thank you for the inspiration❤
Thank you!! They really are perfect for miniatures! I want to make Christmas items too 😊💕

Thank you very much💕😊
Thank you for all your hard and creative work❤
Thank you 💕
another name for the pvc board is Sintra, which is one of my fave building materials for minis. I love the idea of using nail art stickers!
Thank you very much! I will write that in the description. I love using that board too. Which reminds me that I have to order more 😊💕
Good work ❤
Thank you very much! 😊💕
Lovely! Thank you! Kathleen
You are very welcome! 😊💕
Wow, that was great! Anyone else wonder how people have such big stuff on their nails? Glad it's there, but it would bug me 😁
Thank you so much 😄💕
I do! I definitely have a hard time imagining those door knockers or clocks on my nails! That said, I can’t even stand to have my nails polished. They feel like they are suffocating (and they are!) Drives me nuts. 😂 But this stuff looks awesome in miniatures, so hey, I’m glad someone likes them! 😂
@@DawnDavidson I'm struggling with nail polish too. It just doesn't stay on. My hands are always covered in paint or glue 😂
🎉lovely 🎉
Thank you! 😊💕
So many great ideas. Thank you for sharing these!
Thank you very much and you are very welcome! 😊💕
Totally Awesome Ideas👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕💕
Thank you so much!! 😄💕
❤❤❤❣
Thank you very much! 😊💕
Amazing! Thank you so much
Thank you and you are very welcome 😊💕
OoOOhhh this is all so clever!!! And would single-handedly allow me to make a much better version of a Christmas decoration I've been wanting to make for a while that would have been way too expensive: a Christmas tree made entirely of dollhouse-sized books. I was intending to make an ornament-sized one, but this way I can make a proper centerpiece-sized one for nearly nothing!!
Thank you! I'm glad to hear this video was useful. Your ornament idea sounds fantastic! 😊💕
Fantastic ideas! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much 😊💕 You are more than welcome!
Хорошие идеи. Спасибо. Обязательно возьму себе на заметку.❤
Всегда пожалуйста и спасибо за просмотр! 😊💕
Not cheats, if you watch miniaturists channels, you would see we have been using nail art for years. Loving what youre doing with it though❤
I only discovered them recently and wish I had much sooner 😄 They really are great to use for miniatures 😊💕
Decals are so awesome in miniature making; transforming pieces. I have used some in projects for my Dollhouse. This video has given me more inspiration. Thank you!
They really are! I wish I had discovered them much earlier. Thank you and thank you so much for watching 😊💕
Great ideas, and I will definitely be using them. Many thanks for sharing x ❤
You are more than welcome! 😊💕
Love your books. Brilliant ❤
Thank you very much 😊💕
Nail Art sheets are one of my favourite go-tos for wood decoration! Even acrylic gold fine nibs don't give that same detail or finish. And I work in 1:24/1:18 a lot so I use the frame ones too. They're perfect! Love the glue stick bottles
Thank you! They really are great for miniatures. I only recently discovered them so I'm obsessed with them 😊💕
Love your ideas.
I bought tiny little solid picture frames, for nail art to make little pictures, actually the colour of them was a bit strange so I fake silver leafed them, cardboard back and tiny little cardboard stand attached with paper hinge, then painted silver, to stand them up.
Thank you very much! Using silver leaf is a good idea as it definitely makes them look more realistic. I've used a lot of silver and gold pen but the leaf is much better
Literally u inspire me so much!
Thank you so much 💕
Awesome, such a large number projects for me to tackle in a short video ☺️ thanks
😄 I just couldn't stop 🤣 You are very welcome 💕
Whoa...how creative ❤ . Too much fun for sure. Well off to the $tore....Thank YOU for sharing your wonderful idea's.
😄Thank you very much! 😊💕
Nail art: [exists]
Diorama makers: its free real estate
😄💕
danke, das sind sooo tolle tips
Gern geschehen und vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen! 😊💕
Some desiccants in pill bottles come in tiny little round canisters. They are just the right size for flowerpots or kitchen canisters.
Great idea! Thank you for the tip!! 😄💕
All such great ideas. I have done some of these! I can't imagine wearing some of that stuff on my nails!!😮
They are perfect for miniatures. I don't think I would be able to wear them on my nails either 😊💕
Brilliant ideas, thank you. 😊
Thank you and You are very welcome! 😊💕
These are gorgeous
Thank you so much! 😊💕
New subscriber. I love this brilliant use of nail decals.
Thank you for subscribing and watching!! It means a lot. I love using nail art. they are perfect for miniatures 😊💕
yay , I will hunt the nail sticker more .
😄 I am obsessed with them! There are so many different 2D and 3D designs available. Hope you find some good ones!! 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife I can not find the clock .do you have link ?
@@maneeratromtrairat174 On the UK Shein website, it's called: Black Friday 20 Pieces Gold And Silver Clock Y2k Nail Art Luxury Ornaments. I found it by typing in 3D Watch Clocks Nail Art. The store is called xiuqu. Hope you can find them! 😊💕
I have made almost all my accessories for my own dollshouse.
WOW!! I'm impressed! It's not easy and it's very time consuming. At least you get them look the way you want 😊💕
Wonderful ideas - I've used many of them myself but am pleased to see that there are brilliant minds who think alike out there ;-) Would you be willing to share where you sourced your "door knockers"? I have not been able to find them. Lovely work! I really love your green desk lamp!!! And your wine bottles!!!
Thank you very much! They are so perfect for miniatures 😄 I found the 'door knockers' on UK Shein website. I searched Metal 3D Nail Art and They were advertised as Black Friday 10pcs Leopard Head Shaped Nail Art Decoration. The store is called Fingertip manicure. Hope you can find them! 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife thank you so much! I very much appreciate your response. I have gone down a rabbit hole of nail art ideas for miniatures - I really must hold on to my purse strings at this rate - the temptation is so great. You are truly an artist. Thank you ever so much for sharing your "hacks". Not everyone is so generous. All the best and do keep creating - I'm following you 🙂
@@patriciaheraty7380 You are very welcome and thank you so much for your kind words! I am also having to stop myself for ordering more nail art 😄 All the best to you too and thank you for following my channel! 😊💕
Thank you for these tips‼️💜 them❣️
Thank you very much! 😊💕
That's just sooo cute
😄 Thank you! 💕
Wow! Who knew so many nail art items could be used for miniatures. Such awesome ideas - great job!
If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the self adhesive mirror sheets? I've been looking for them to use as side view mirrors on model cars but could never find any that were truly reflective like a mirror - the ones I came across are either cloudy or too thick. The ones you used look like they would fit.
Thank you! They are perfect for miniatures. Funny you should ask about the mirror...I am currently making a video specifically about the mirror. Video will come out this Thursday. I found it on UK Amazon website under the name: Zonon Flexible Mirror Sheets Self Adhesive. I think the brand is Zonon. They have different sizes and amounts available. It has been great for using on Miniatures as it reflects just like anormal mirror. Hope you can find it! 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife Thanks for the quick response. Off to go searching for the mirror sheets and looking forward to your upcoming video 😃
@@lauriefan24 You are more than welcome 😊
New to your channel, I’m so glad your video popped up for me today. Where can I find sticker/decal books like the one shown here? I’m new to making miniatures and your book had so many fabulous images. Any suggestions where I can find inexpensive supplies? Your video really inspired me, thanks for sharing.
So glad you found my channel and thank you for watching! 😊💕 Those Sticker/decal books are from Shein UK (and most of the 2D and 3D Nail Art decorations) I'm not sure if they have the exact books still on their website but I searched for Vintage sticker/decal books and they still have a lot of different designs. I have bought some supply from Amazon and of course different craft shops. I haven't tried Temu yet but I can imagine they are inexpensive too. Great place to find supplies are also ebay and etsy. These can be pricy but sometimes they sell items/supplies in bulk and you can get some great deals. I also get some odd items from charity shops/thrift stores; jewellery, buttons, old toys etc. They can be great for making miniatures. It's even better if you find ready made miniatures as you can always modify them. Hope this helps 😄
Wow! So creative and talented. The green bottle was so clever..I love it!
Thank you so much thank you for watching 😊💕
What great ideas, loved the nail art stickers!
Thank you very much! Nail art both 2D and 3D are perfect for miniatures 😊💕
Good ideas!
Thank you very much! 😊💕
I'm a nail tech & have tons of these things ❤️ great ideas! Where did you get the flexible mirror sheets though? Thanks 🥰
WOW!! I wish I could see your stash!! 😄💕 I am obsessed with them. They are so perfect for miniatures. I bought the mirror from Amazon. If you type in Self Adhesive Flexible Mirror Sheets, you will get loads of options 😊
J'adore ces tutos de miniatures,j'en fais aussi beaucoup que j'invente pour le plaisir.❤
Merci beaucoup! Ils sont tellement amusants à faire. Ces designs de nail art 2D et 3D sont parfaits pour les miniatures 😊💕
Fantastic ideas! Thank you for sharing 🌼
Quick.question, where can I find the book ypu used.pictures from?
Thank you very much! I got the sticker books from Shein. They have many different types and are cheap too 😊💕
Awesome, thank you so much! 🙂✌💙🌼
Cute mini creations. Great ideas 👏👏 hello from New York
Thank you very much! a big wave and hello back to New York! 😊💕
Where did you find the stickers ? This is so creative. I love it. You have the best ideas
Thank you😊💕I bought those stickers from Shein. If you search for Nail Art stickers, ther are loads to choose from (they also have some great sticker books). I've been told tha Amazon and Temu have great choices too.
I have to say I found this video ENTHRALLING!
Thank you very much 😊💕
Guess I missed it, but what did you use for the base of the plates? Great ideas!
Thank you very much! I made the plates using acetate plastic and then painted the underneath with acrylic paint and sealed with mod podge. After that I added the nail art stickers / decals on top of the plates. There is a video I have made which shows how to make the plates 😊💕
Are these supplies purchased online, or from a physical store?
Love to know where I could find some of those items :)
I bought most of them online. The Sticker / Decal booklets, 2D and 3D Nail Art Stickers / Decals, Nail Art foil and battery operated fairy lights I found on Shein. The Flexible mirror sheet and colour hot glue gun glue sticks I found on Amazon. Hope this helps 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife Thank you very much for the infor ation :)
@@ricks5756 You are very welcome! 😊💕
I love it❤where do you get this stuff? Could you maybe link it?
Thank you! I ordered the battery Fairy Lights and all the Nail Art stickers/decals, Sticker Books, from Shein (UK). There's a lot of different designs to choose from. Both 2D and 3D (3D Tiger/lions head, cherubs and clocks/watches). Zonon Flexible Mirror Sheets Self Adhesive, Colour Glue Sticks, Imitation gold leaf and PVC Rigid Foam Board are all from Amazon (UK). Hope this helps 😊💕
Where did you get the booklets with pictures and decals? Do you have a link please? Great ideas❤
I bought them from Shein website. I just searched for decal booklets and 2D Nail Art decals. There's loads of options to choose from. I think Temu might have similar ones too 😊💕
Thank you🙂
Where do you buy those texture charms from?
I found them on Shein and you can find them as 3D Nail Art. There are many different designs available. Hope this helps 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife thank you. Im just getting into miniatures and Im going to make a victorian dollhouse. Your video gave me alot of inspiration
@@sadboys6641 You are more than welcome! I'm glad the video is useful. Enjoy making your dollhouse 😄💕
Where do you get those nail art stickers? What words to I use to search for them? Thank you!
I bought mine from Shein. I searched for Nail Art Stickers (or Nail Art Decals). There are so many different ones to choose from. I just did a general search. If you want specific ones, just type flowers, roses etc. to narrow the search down. I also did a 3D Nail Art search. You can narrow that down too by typing metal, clock, watches etc. and hopefully that should help you find the ones you want 😊
Where did you get your sticker book plz? 🎉
I found them on Shein. There are a lot of really nice sticker books available with so many different designs 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife thankyou x
@@jojosmumdorothy2829 You are very welcome! 💕
Can you please tell me where to purchase the decal and sticker book?
The music is very beautiful.
Glad you like the music! I found the decals on Shein. There are so many different designs. You can refine the search by writing key words such as Flowers, Roses etc. I also typed in 3D Nail Art which should show a lot of the 'solid' 3D designs ( I also looked on Amazon but they were much more expensive ). I don't know if Temu sells them. I also found the sticker books on Shein. There are many different designs (retro, vintage etc.). I just typed in Sticker Books. Hope this helps 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife Thank you for the info! I really enjoyed watching you make the tiny treasures and with the calming music it was a great night time video.
I subscribed immediately. You’re very good at making these tiny pieces. You made me want to try my hand at them.
This video was brilliant. Thanks again.
❤️Debbie
@@poetsdreamsatc You are more than welcome! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing. It means a lot. Hopefully my other videos will be useful too 😊💕
Where do you find the stickers and decals
I have seen them sold on Shein, Temu and Amazon websites (different price ranges). There's loads of designs available. Hope you find the ones you like😊💕
Uv resin and shrinky dinks are your new best friend
Oh yes!! They are great materials to use. Might have to make a video using them 😄💕
@@tinycraftlife I like to use color shrinky dinks to make mini appliances like toaster over and stove and in the process of making a record player, it saves me so much work of painting and automaticqlly gives that laminate look (though stencil shrinky dink tiles are proving to be a pain even with a square punch, if the oven temp is off one degree the tiles will not be the same size)
@@juliannehannes11 Thank you for the great tip! I've only tried the ones that you have to paint or colour in and I couldn't get the colour right. they were either too dark or too light. I need to try the colour ones 😊💕
@@tinycraftlife Color shrinky dinks are the best, they even have the two different sides to choose from, one side a buff matte color like paint effect and the other side shiny like laminate, and if you add the nail chrome powder on top, the result is stunning.
What I do is print out a picture of the front of a toaster oven free stock vector to trace and cut out, I use a a bit of the clear shrinky dinks for the window and shelf (with a silver marker grill drawn on), for the buttons I used two hole punches painted silver by marker, and I use one paper clip end for the door handle
Why didnt you include the places to get the quote unquote nail art stickers ???? Idk where you live but I've never seen anything like them.
If you want people to lije your videos then INCLUDE YOUR SUPPY INFO.
Well, people do sometimes forget about things as I did. Making these items and editing videos take a lot of time. Can't always remember to include everything. Most of the Nail art stickers (2D and 3D) are from Shein. Other websites sell them too. Most of the other products are from Amazon 😊
These look really cheap and cheesy. I want my dollhouse to look a little classier than that. I suppose it would work just fine for a little kids dollhouse. The kind with plastic furniture and stuff
Thank you for your comment 😊 These are meant to be cheap. It's up to the to person to decide how to use them (with a bit of imagination). Sometimes you can use cheap materials to make things easier. All the best to you. Thank you for watching 💕
Colored hot glue sticks? I really don’t get out enough.🫤
😄That was a real surprise to me too 😊💕
