I really appreciate your no nonsense tutorials and explanation of your processes. Too many UA-camr's waffle and try to be 'character' personalities that can be so irritating! Love your vids! 😍
I appreciate that! I'm a pretty impatient person, so I do more and more trimming during editing. I like to keep the info rolling and not stay on the same image on the screen or topic for too long.
Yes! My pet peeve is a messy work space with a person digging around looking for supplies while talking about whatever crosses their mind... And their videos are an hour long. I don't mind watching you dig through your little jars for bits and pieces. The crow part of my brain is entirely engaged... Good job hon!
@@kilodeltawhisky1504 The crafting part of my brain is like, "Oh, I could use that little thingy for a mini project." Agree with you about the interruptions to get a towel, another full bottle of glue, scissors etc. Should have everything near your work area before you start to record or edit the video better.
I feel ya and was about to mention the same. When I heard that I giggled like a loon. Funny, yes but mostly unexpected. Perfect dry humor spoken in the deadpan. 🥴☮️💜
I watch for both entertainment and to learn. Your voice is calming and not too much annoying music. I’ve always loved miniatures since I was a little girl but am just now in my 50’s starting to make miniatures. I love that you share your knowledge step by step and use obtainable materials and most of all I love your sense of humor. Definitely one of my favorite commentators!
Wow, thank you! I'm glad you're a fan. You can't please them all, though. The other day someone commented that my voice is annoying. Another said I have man hands 😆
@@queencityminis wow some people are so rude. Like I said and as others said i love your paint stained hand and there is a relatable quality you have that is not fake and you make me lol literally 😂. I love it when you said that kit made you mad. I can definitely relate to that.
Shyra first off- you are hilarious! I love your artistry/creativity and personality! I love all of the plants and the thought you put into selecting the "planters". I actually make minis myself, and have an Etsy shop. However, I've decided to finish my degree, so my creativity has been placed on hold for the time being with my course load.😔
@@marygatdula2744 Yeah, but, the time it takes to type out a comment should be a deterrent. Can't imagine anyone telling someone they have "man" hands. Some voices I don't like (high squeaky drives me nuts) but I never say anything. I just can't watch their videos.
Perfect timing. I purchased a 15cm, 2 level, glass display case and I'm turning it into a glasshouse/shed. These ideas are perfect. I've collected miniature things for 10 years and I'm so excited to finally start making them into something!
I'm a middle school art teacher and I'm making a playlist of how to make miniature things for my Advanced Art students to use as reference for a project that we are going to do this year. We are going to make a self portrait project in the form of a "dream room" filled with furniture, objects, hobbies, and things that are important to them. The idea is that they are making a room that they would love to have in their real life and it would look like they just stepped out of the room for a moment, so it will look lived in and realistic. Your videos are *exactly* what I'm looking for because you reuse/repurpose inexpensive materials and give a really simple explanation on how to make realistic-looking objects. I love making miniatures myself, but I don't have the time to make instructional videos for every possible thing they may want to have in their project. I make videos for almost all of my other projects for my Beginning Art, Digital Art, and Advanced Art classes, so I know how long videos take to film and edit. Your videos are really fun to watch and so inspiring! I hope my students love your videos as much as I do! Thank you so much for your hard work! As for which plant I like the best, I really can't choose because they are all so well done! I think I will go with the spider plant, as I have a bunch of real life spider plants, both at my house and in my classroom.
Wow! I never would've imagined a teacher would use my videos for students! That's great. I wish I had had a teacher who assigned such a project. I could've discovered my love for miniatures years earlier. Thank you!
I love watching your videos and have recommended them to my minis Facebook group. I was also taught to make a cheap plant by sticking two strips of masking tape together sticky sides together with a wire down the middle and out one end. Paint the masking tape green, then cut in whatever shape leaf you want bend the wire and curve the petals by stretching over scissors blade. They look great
My husband and I make miniature houses for my forensics classes (I also share them with the English department for students to have as amuse for their creative writing projects. We both love your creativity and have incorporated many into our “murder scene” houses to add extra realism. Thank you for your creativity:)
I’m giving you a standing ovation. You’re just amazing! As far as why I am watching… I enjoy watching your techniques & trying to learn. I DO want to make minis but I am disabled & often don’t have the energy. But I am going to try to at least do a 1 room diorama to start… a living room or bedroom… and these plants are perfect. I loved the hanging planter! Thank you so much for sharing these techniques. I also love your dry sense of humor! It’s almost British! LOL Thank you again! xxoo
I'm a new sub who watches to collect creative ideas I can then transfer into my 1:6 scale dollhouse. How awesome you are for sharing all your creative thoughts & processes, thank you!
You are so good at explaining your steps. But I think you really shine at offering alternative steps, materials and methods to show how effective and creative you can be with ordinary items. Truly love your videos!
I love them all. You’re so clever. I watch because your videos are relaxing and I love your style. I don’t think I have enough patience to do all the things that you do in such a small scale. I think you’re very talented and I’m glad I came across your videos.
I was fascinated by how you made your spider plant! Creating a plug for the center to force the leaves to splay out and then installing your new growth in the middle along with a baby spider, was an ingenious technique!
I watch to learn but I must say I could easily just watch for entertainment. Your videos are very direct and with great instructions. My favourite was the spider plant. Thank you 🌷
I liked the small half pots best(from the drawer handles)! I watch for entertainment and education. I am a just starting miniaturist. Thank you for the help!
My pleasure! Welcome to the miniature world. I was looking through my mini stash looking for inspiration. As soon as I saw the wooden drawer pulls, I just knew they were meant to be wall pockets.
Wow! A favorite would be hard to pick but that spider plant with the teeniest spider baby is prob at the top of the list. They are so realistic looking. Right now I’m watching for entertainment but I have made a miniature from a hobby lobby kit. I will do another once cold weather hits and my garden has been put to bed.
Excellent tutorial. Very time consuming, but spectacular and realistic results. I also make miniature plants, but I use floral tape for the leaves and that green tin tie that is used to hold up tomato plants. I find using eye shadow a good way to tone down bright colors. I thank you for this tutorial. Great job.
I love watching your videos. I am a beginner who has done a few kits and needed more of a challenge so have made a few rooms from scratch. Your tutorials are so detailed and helpful. Love all of them but they are quite addictive 😊
ok I was here just to see how to make a tiny dangling plant but ended up watching the whole thing. YOU ARE AMAZING and my mind is blown at how well you make things out of "nothing". and your technique is so detailed. LOVE THIS!
Oh my . . . I love *ALL* of your plants. Thanks much for the inspiration and instruction. Like other subscribers, I watch to learn, but there's also a lot of entertainment value here.
Thank you for this! 😊 I used your fern creation for a project i'm working on. I coiled a couple green wires at the tips to make it look like new fern fans growing. You inspired that! Thank you 😊😊
@@queencityminis, You're welcome! Just a heads up, I will be incorporating some your ideas, not just the plants, in some future projects. I have been feeling really inspired to do so many things lately.
So clever! For anyone doing this I recommend one thing if working with hot glue in such a small area; have a cup of cold water nearby to dip your fingers in if you hit the hot glue.
For entertainment, miniatures is something I always loved doing my entire life however I always had a busy life. So, would I start over and over and never get enough time to follow through. Once life slowed down for me it was too late. I now have bad OA in my hands and issues with my eyes that now stop me from being able to achieve that goal of making miniatures. So, I watch because I cannot do. Very creative TY for sharing!
I like all of them. I'm watching to learn how to make better plants for wargaming miniatures and terrain. I want to build jungle bases for my upcoming saurian army for One Page Rules. That's rather smaller scale than this, but some of the techniques should cross over. The paper leaves, particularly. They look better and easier to make than the polymer clay techniques I was trying this morning.
A lot of techniques for dollhouse Miniatures lend themselves well to terrain for gaming and vice versa. I learned a lot from Black Magic crafts to use in my dollhouses.
@@queencityminis I watch his videos too. 😄 I just made a couple of plants: bromeliad/spider plants using your techniques that aren't ridiculously huge for 1/78 scale. The fern leaves didn't turn out quite so well. I'll have to try again - a few tree ferns would look awesome and they're quite big plants. So thanks! Means I'm not restricted to expensive bought laser plants.
I'm a creator, just working on a gnome/fairy house that I started in February 2020. I have been learning as I go. I watch several channels. Ara was actually the very first channel I watched. Thank you for the great little plants.
ua-cam.com/video/uYm5I3AoONo/v-deo.htmlsi=cvDQq91U-r9MuEZK I bet you'd find some great ideas in this Witch's Cottage I made. It's one of my favorite projects I've done.
I find your wonderful videos so inspiring! I started off doing kits then found I don't like being told what to do so I now make my own from found items. I like transforming what is essentially junk into tiny works of art inside sardine tins.
I absolutely love your videos! This one is especially timely for me because i got a greenhouse kit for Christmas and i was looking for ideas to add my own touch and really fill it up. The spider plant is my absolute favorite.
This is brilliant, and so inspirational. I cannot wait to have a go, but I'm sure it's not quite as easy as it looks. I love this website, so creative out of everyday items. You have such an amazing imagination, and explain every step so clearly. Thank you.
What I love about your videos darl, is that like me, when you make minis you get messy and dirty. I will never understand how people make things and stay clean - I just CAN NOT DO IT =) I use the back of my left hand as a paint palette, glue holder and brush wiper. My fave's in this lot are the mossy flowering plant and the teeny tiny baby spider plant that made me squeeeeee!
These are very cool. I am making a rather large gnome home and needed some interior decoration ideas. These are so fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing.
I watch your videos to get inspiration for my own mini creations. You have so many cool ideas! I really like your straightforward style of tutorials, and the little sparkles of humor☺️
Thank you so much! I appreciate that. Editing takes a lot of time. I'm glad so many of you appreciate the lack of dead air and repetition etc. It takes time and effort to do that.
Love your videos, they are always easy to follow and very informative. I learn something new every time I watch one. Really liked how you painted the paper (directionally and color wise) and gave some plants a light wash of paint when done to vary the color a bit. They were all great, the spider plant was my fave.
Thank you! I like how you can paint one sheet for leaves, then vary the color by using washes and dry brushing. It would look odd if every plant was the same color.
Thank you so much 😊 I just used that same piece of paper recently to make Holly leaves. I added a layer of darker paint and cut them out. I'm glad I made extra
I watch mostly for entertainment. But I have made a few miniatures, and I got a miniature house kit that I am going to put together. I love your videos.
I watch to enjoy and get ideas. They often are a jumping off point for something else entirely that may or may not be miniature. I hope to do more this fall. I love all the plants - a special shout out to the simplest ones that appear out of nothing
Well said! I watch a variety of videos myself. I watch people make tabletop terrain for Dungeons & Dragons, even though I've never played or made anything like that myself. I've gotten good inspiration for other things.
My favorite was the spider plant! Also, when you said, look how dirty your hands were, I do that myself😊 It happens all the time while one is creating 💙
Maybe you can make a miniature coffee cup out of paper. It's a really simple tutorial and you probably have everything you need at home right now. ua-cam.com/video/J_XXnnTshcg/v-deo.htmlsi=EFD46y9LvyZjrCNj
The hanging plant and monstera are my favorites! ❤ i turned 40 last year and wanted to do this since i was a little girl. i watch to learn as i am only a beginner. Your videos are so helpfull and also very enternaining 😍 lots of love from Belgium🇧🇪
That as very informative and easy to follow. Thank you for showing me how to do it. I make my own doll houes and store bought plants can get very pricey, Many thanks
I watch to relax and entertainment and it’s just really cute. Your voice is soothing and this is very aesthetically pleasing. I’ve been watching before bed for a few weeks. I fall asleep to your voice lol
ua-cam.com/video/J_XXnnTshcg/v-deo.htmlsi=Pg5smiQhbFAh2V43 Make a mini paper mug! These require minimal supplies and they're so much fun. I gave a lot of ideas for how to decorate & finish them.
I watch for entertainment. I want to make minis but don’t have the patience. You are so creative! I absolutely love all the plants but the monstera wins! I thought for sure you were gonna make a snake plant. Ha! Thanks!
It's so funny you should say that! I made two snake plants. You can see them in the photo I added to my community tab, but they didn't make it into this video. They'll be in my video on Sept 8th. It's a very special video I'm excited about.
Watching for entertainment. I made minis years ago and my favorite was making plants. Try making flowers out of tiny dyed seashells. I'm looking for ideas to make Christmas trees for my sisters
Love this! Thank you so much! Have you a cactus\succulent set perhaps as well? I love southwestern stuff. Been thinking about buying an authentic small tumbleweed online😁🌵🪴
LOVE this!!! Thank you for showing. We are working on our first dollhouse and this is very welcome!! What kind of paper do you use and what kind of white glue?
I just watch everything, I have a ton of flocking and static grass and lichens in different colours and I also just dug out the paper cut outs for a kit I didnt complete. I buy those things usually because of a specific piece of furniture thats probably going to work in 1:18th scale with a bit of tweaking and theres all kinds of stuff for making plants, or candlesticks or whatever, I am doing a declutter at the moment and getting absolutely nowhere because everything goes in the "what you keeping that for?" pile, as Little Gretchen says! I'm the real what? For watching till the end ? Lol!

Thank you! I like how you can paint one sheet for leaves, then vary the color by using washes and dry brushing. It would look odd if every plant was the same color.
I like to make tabletop role-playing game terrain and your videos are invaluable to me. Thank you very much! - Rick, USMC
That's so cool! I watch tabletop terrain channels to pick up techniques. I never realized people are watching my videos for the same reason.
Very clever. I like how u painted the paper making leaves look real.❤️
Thank you so much 😊 I just used that same piece of paper recently to make Holly leaves. I added a layer of darker paint and cut them out. I'm glad I made extra
Обожаю миниатюру, тоже увлекаюсь! 😉🤝👍мне понравилась ваша миниатюра!
Thank you 😊
I watch mostly for entertainment. But I have made a few miniatures, and I got a miniature house kit that I am going to put together.
I love your videos.
I watch to enjoy and get ideas. They often are a jumping off point for something else entirely that may or may not be miniature. I hope to do more this fall. I love all the plants - a special shout out to the simplest ones that appear out of nothing
Well said! I watch a variety of videos myself. I watch people make tabletop terrain for Dungeons & Dragons, even though I've never played or made anything like that myself. I've gotten good inspiration for other things.
I watch to learn. I like making mini miniature flowers
That sounds like so much fun 😊
These are super cute! I love your attention to details, I watch for entertainment and to get some inspiration and start making my own miniatures 🤓
You can do it! Making minis is really fun (unless you're doing something frustrating, which certainly happens).
These are so beautiful.❤
Thank you! 😊
You are so clever and patient! Lol. Ty xxx
Thank you!
My favorite was the spider plant! Also, when you said, look how dirty your hands were, I do that myself😊 It happens all the time while one is creating 💙
So true! I cut my nails really short bc there's always paint and dirt etc under my nails. I swear I wash my hands a lot.
I watch because this is fascinating to me, but I hope to start making my own miniatures someday.
Maybe you can make a miniature coffee cup out of paper. It's a really simple tutorial and you probably have everything you need at home right now. ua-cam.com/video/J_XXnnTshcg/v-deo.htmlsi=EFD46y9LvyZjrCNj

I love watching your videos! I learn something new every single time. I do make minis so I use what I learn but your videos are great to watch.
I'm so glad! I hope you're having a great time creating.
My favorite thing about your videos is that everything gets used for something.
Thank you 😊

Very cool! I'd love to know what you make from paper.
Love the spider plant

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching.
So lovely, your small plants😊

I watch to relax and entertainment and it’s just really cute. Your voice is soothing and this is very aesthetically pleasing. I’ve been watching before bed for a few weeks. I fall asleep to your voice lol
Aww, that's awesome! I love that I can provide relaxation and stress relief to people. That's amazing.

Make a mini paper mug! These require minimal supplies and they're so much fun. I gave a lot of ideas for how to decorate & finish them.
I love your tutorials they are brilliant. I make minis and am always looking for inspiration- so thank you ! ❤
You are so welcome!

I do the same. It's fun to pick up new techniques. Thank you 😊

You're welcome!
Thanks alot for sharing your work,it helped me a lot and solved so many my questions.
Love your talent ❤
My pleasure 😊
Beautiful beautiful 👌
Thank you so much 😊
What a great video! I want to make some for my Integrity Toys dolls.
I just Googled that and went down a rabbit hole. I had never heard of Integrity toys!
I watch for entertainment. I want to make minis but don’t have the patience. You are so creative! I absolutely love all the plants but the monstera wins! I thought for sure you were gonna make a snake plant. Ha! Thanks!
It's so funny you should say that! I made two snake plants. You can see them in the photo I added to my community tab, but they didn't make it into this video. They'll be in my video on Sept 8th. It's a very special video I'm excited about.
@@queencityminis Oh! I didn’t see that. You did! It’s so cute. They are my favorite plants.
Relaxation!
I hear you :) I watched for a while for the same reason before I started making minis.
Watching for entertainment. I made minis years ago and my favorite was making plants. Try making flowers out of tiny dyed seashells. I'm looking for ideas to make Christmas trees for my sisters
Love this! Thank you so much! Have you a cactus\succulent set perhaps as well? I love southwestern stuff. Been thinking about buying an authentic small tumbleweed online😁🌵🪴
Not yet, but I'd love to. That sounds fun
Just stumbled on your channel as I love all things miniature. I however don't have the talent or steady hands to do make them. And you're funny😍
Welcome aboard! Thank you so much 😊
I make minis & watch for ideas/inspiration. I made mini snake plants by coloring & trimming green twist ties with good results.
That's so clever! I love hearing about new uses for junk.
Love this tutorial
Glad you like it! Thank you
PRECIOSO !!!
Thank you 😊
Super ! ❤ merci ❤
Thank you 😊
LOVE this!!! Thank you for showing. We are working on our first dollhouse and this is very welcome!! What kind of paper do you use and what kind of white glue?
I used tracing paper and Elmer's glue.
"Look how dirty my fingers are...I mean, look how cool this stone bead is." lol Oh my goodness that was hilarious!
Haha, I'm glad you appreciated that
I’m so making the spider plant!
So satisfying! I got the gel pens from Temu. They're so opaque. I love them.
How to choose, so many cool plants. I guess the Spider Plant because of the babies. The babies put it over the top!😊❤🪴🌴
The baby is SO cute! It was an afterthought. I thought of it as I was cleaning up.
@queencityminis It is too adorable. The baby made the plant life-like.🩷
I just watch everything, I have a ton of flocking and static grass and lichens in different colours and I also just dug out the paper cut outs for a kit I didnt complete. I buy those things usually because of a specific piece of furniture thats probably going to work in 1:18th scale with a bit of tweaking and theres all kinds of stuff for making plants, or candlesticks or whatever, I am doing a declutter at the moment and getting absolutely nowhere because everything goes in the "what you keeping that for?" pile, as Little Gretchen says! I'm the real what? For watching till the end ? Lol!
You're the real MVP! 😆
I'm packing to move and I've been packing styrofoam trays and egg cartons and lots of trash 😆 I feel your pain.
