    She's NOT the average miniature scene builder. She adds some much love to it. I'm interested in expanding on the scenes and adding some miniature dolls to create a visual story to film for fun.

I’m so proud of the subscribers she has generated!! I’ve been here when it was only about 900, now over 350k!!! Get this artist to 1M subs!!!! Share her videos she legit puts in a ton of hard work!

    If you run a tiny ball point tool over the lines on the spine between each book in your 'stack' of books, it adds a bit to the realism of the books. I love the way your finished the 'covers' of the stacks, I hadn't thought of doing that.

    I love your work! Cath, You have inspired me to really want to work on some detailed wood minis - I remember once you told me that wood is best to work with. So I went out and bought lots of popsicle sticks. I already had made a lot of mini books, but I haven't made anywhere to put them yet. So I think I will make wooden shelves. Thanks for sharing all your excellent stuff. And as soon as I create a bookshelf like this - I am gonna share it, too. What a unique way to do the brick wall - I might use that style for a backdrop I need for my doll's studio.

    Absolutely brilliant. I'm retired and my daughter's both love reading. I'm going to try and make this to go on their bookshelf.

    I make book boxes for books I write for the kids. Some contain libraries of mini books. .My best trick is to take old magazines. Print mini book covers and glue them down the spine of the magazine and then cut them apart on the band saw. Sometimes I sand the edges a bit and distress the edges with a brown ink pad.

    I do model railroading (1/48th scale). At times I envy the folks who work larger. But I did convert a "plasticville" store to a used bookstore. I didn't know about "printable book covers" so I used covers from ads in old issues of Asimov's Science Fiction magazine. Size them appropriately, print them out, glue to some cardstock and it does look pretty good. As a bonus, I was able to leave a few of the "books" in other locations around my little town.

    I can't believe you actually made all those individual books with real pages...📚
    Anyone else would have done the faux method with foamboard or skinny wood pieces.
    That there shows your dedication.
    For one would be happy to shop in that little boutique!

  • @MusicOfTheAmateurMusician
    @MusicOfTheAmateurMusician 5 років тому

    You are doing an outstanding job. I love your work and your effort for the highly detailed miniatures is second to none. I've never seen something like this since I'd tried my hands on dioramas many years ago before finally giving up. And also, I can't help but notice you have a very beautiful voice and the way you talk is very soothing and comforting as well.

    Amazing detail. I made some books for my dolls house and used a travel brochure, around 8mm thick, cutting it to size (it was already glued at the spine) and covered them with a printed cover. I also found a CD with printable anatomical images for a Doctors room. So some books have actual pictures and words inside.

    Well done. Looks great. I found that using balsa wood was easier to use between the covers of the books. Once I paint the wood on it's edge and place on the bookcase or as it's dropped on the floor, no one could tell it wasn't paper
