I love to watch you create from recycled items. When you are done, you have a beautiful finished miniature. In this case a whole room! I have been a big fan of your videos and have been inspired by your ideas.
That turned out amazingly beautiful. I can’t believe that you made it out of paper, clay and a little bit of glue oh and a dab of gold rub n buff. You have a gorgeous piece now. Did you get into another fight with your knife again?
@queencityminis I wish you would consider one day making a video of yourself doing your aerial routine (? I can't remember what it's called)! I find it fascinating, scary, and beautiful! I would love to see it.
Absolutely precious! Ur bas-relief gorgeous! TY for showing us how to use the molds. (have a bunch & was scared to try them) Can hardly wait for ur mason jar tutorial🧂
Omg,just put some molds in online card and thought that I should look up more videos of their uses in miniatures. Amazing timing, love your channel so much,great source for learning and inspiration,cause I am just starting "freestyling"(😅) miniatures 💛💛💛
Hi Shyra, I absolutely loved this room box. I bought so many molds from Temu but haven’t used as yet. You’ve given me some ideas now. I heard you say that you were thinking to make a pressed tin ceiling. I know for one of your other room boxes that you used a sheet from the Dollar Store which was great but sadly there is nothing here in Western Australia that sells anything like this. I tracked down someone that had a mold which was perfect but they had sold out and it was over $30 not including postage. I thought that was too expensive as I only wanted to use for one project. So ever since I have been thinking of things that I could do. So if you ever figure out a way to do it, I for one would be very excited. Love your channel. Take care and thanks for sharing. Cheers Robyn ❤😊
i love this! thanks for all the tips on using the molds. i was only abble to use pictures of filigree on my walls. these are so much more lux for sure!
You are so creative! The details are amazing. Pro Tip: instead of blue painters tape, electrical tape holds a bandaid on better and is water and sweat proof. 😂
Beautiful room 😍 looking forward to seeing it filled. If you have or know anyone with a die cutting machine, some of the embossing folders would make an amazing metal ceiling. Or the old 'brass rubbing' technique may work, too?
@queencityminis Maybe you could make your own. Use some string to make your center design on some chipboard and harden the string with glue, then put that design into a frame such as you made for the wall panels, but in a square of 1"x 1" ( or however big you want the tiles to be) then use a Heavy Duty grade aluminum foil (perhaps a double layer) over the cast and use one of those tiny ball tipped styluses to "engrave" around the details? It might work, but it would probably require patience! LOL Heck, I might even try it myself. I would love to try some copper or even some paper that can be painted.
Gotdang I love your videos!!! The experiments with molds, the upcycles, the stack of those wallpapers I’m jealous of… and then you do these tiny things like sand the baseboards. And I’m like what? that’s not even going to show! but it does!!! I love it
Love, love, love this! It’s exactly the thing I’ve been wanting (and preparing) to do but wasn’t sure how to execute it yet. Thanks for sharing!! Always appreciate the simple materials and the tips for easy measuring! ❤
I had 2 nice amazon boxes and I cut them into 8 corner rooms and made a bathroom, dining room, bedrooms, nursery playroom, living room and kitchen. I cut windows and wallpapered and painted little wooden furniture and added all the little details I had left over from kits, zuru balls, and stuff I made. they came out so nice, I had so much fun, and my BF hung them up on the wall in a row!
@@queencityminis So much fun! also, my sister and I live in Maine, so thanks for the info about the mini store Earth and Tree. We took a trip there in july and had such a great time. what a great store and a beautiful drive - plus I love spending time with my sister.
I love everything about this!! It looks incredibly beautiful and I also appreciate the Chewy cardboard - I have cats and end up with tons of those flats.
I love those wall panels. One of my favorite ways to decorate is using these molds in various ways for detail. I'm so glad to see you're using the celery chalk paint. I love using the chalk paint because it's so opaque you usually only need one coat and a touch up. The celery gives that vintage green result that I love so much. Most of the pieces in The Josephine House kitchen were painted with that color. 😊 You can mix it with the clear wax for a shine or varnished look as well. And if or when it gets too thick just add water. I love the look you have created. ❤🥰 oh and I got so hooked on Bridgerton. But I really loved the queens series more. ❤
I bought all the silicone molds first of the year and have just put off making the baroque walls...now you have inspired me with your tutorial! I just ordered a French bed!! Oh My Gosh!!!! I'm so excited.
I like the way mind works when it comes to miniatures. I haven't tried the molds yet but have gotten some recently, so plan to try them. One piece that I got is the medallion that goes on the ceiling under the light. This turned out so cute, I love it. Have a great day
A clay clean up tool work really well for cleaning up plaster of Paris. It's the same tool you use to clean up greenware. It's usually curved triangle on one end and a flat triangle shape on the other, both have bladed edges intended to scrape dried clay. Kemper used to sell one, but I think they went out of business. I'm sure plenty of other clay/ceramic tool companies sell something similar. I first learned to use one in elementary school, so they're not overly sharp or dangerous to use.
Hello, Dear...i love your Tutorials so much!! Im subscribing...❤ You are so,soo fantastic!! Amazing, wonderful Artworker😊 👍🍀 Greetings and blessings from Switzerland 🇨🇭🙏🤗
That's so beautifully designed and the colors are so perfect! I love how you mix the metallic paint to get what you want! I've been wanting to try fabric paint for a dimensional look since I don't have any silicone molds. ❤
I have tried the moulds with various media but always go back to Milliput because it comes out really well and is pretty much indestructable (well, pieces don't break off, I am prone to exxagerate everything lol!) Its good if you are using Milliput for a specific reason, and you have some leftover just put it into moulds so you have a stock of decorative bits, like you are doing, or tree branches/stumps, I even make jars out of it in the little jar moulds to make into stoneware jars.
Its usually hard within an hour or so and the different colours are slightly different in texture, or at least softness. I have tried the terracotta, white (which is definitely softer) black and the original which is a pale green colour when mixed. I think theres silver too, I think its cheaper than ApoxieSculpt and the packs are a really good size rather than huge tubs. Love it. I did order some white casting resin powder that you mix with water, it arrives either today or tomorrow its got a number on the front like 10:3 or something and its also called "Resincrete"? It looks like it would be fine in moulds as it doesnt crack like the clays do. I also ordered some of that nail art clear resin clay stuff because it was there and I thought it would make nice jars etc. Its all on Temu, I will let you know how it goes as I'm quite excited to try these two. I saw a girl make these light up mushrooms around a resin pool with the transparent resin clay stuff so it can be used to make lights too.
Hi Shyra I found the plaster of Paris less brittle if I use some wood glue or PVA glue when mixing it up. I did one part plaster powder one part glue and then enough water to get it to the consistency that I wanted. Also I did a colour batch using liquid acrylic folk art type paint. For that mixture I did two parts plaster powder, one part glue one part paint and then enough water for the consistency that I wanted. I did find however that the coloured plaster dried lighter in colour then it was when I was mixing it up, so just FYI. I got about 40 minutes working time using the glue before the plaster really got difficult to work with, however I did get quite a bit of bubbling and I don't know yet ( I still have to do some tests) whether that was just my inexperience filling the mould or if the glue was causing a bit more air to develop as it was drying😃
I never measure and I eyeball things when positioning items. Unfortunately, it leaves too short and crooked stuff. I am not as good as you are. Very pretty room!🥰
😅😅oh heck yeah! Why does chewy have the *best* cardboard boxes? 😂 the ones that my dogs’ food cans come in are so strong, I reuse them for everything. I got some of those exact same scrollwork molds to imitate vintage syroco shelves in my miniature tattoo shop, but I (stupidly) tried to fill the molds with hot glue and regular sculpey-neither worked very well, but I didn’t even think about liquid clay. I need some of the shelves to be half-round/need the scrollwork to be flexible; do you think the finished liquid clay scrolls you made could be flexible to bend around something round (maybe the diameter of a toilet paper/paper towel tube)? The hot glue scrolls were flexible when dry, but had wayyyyy too many bubbles/couldn’t get into the details very easily. Thank you for your videos! I can’t wait to see the finished version of this one, it already looks so rad.👍
P.s. have you ever messed around with using the metal from the bottom of a takeout tray + a ball stylus to make pressed tin ceilings? Might be tedious, but it seems like it might work, maybe tracing over a pattern /grid printed out would make it easier? I love the way the level celery green ceiling looks currently, but I can see the texture of a gold-accented tin ceiling working well here, too!
Acetone (nail polish remover) or mineral sprits will do a better job of cleaning the Rub-n-Buff out of your brush. I usually get the odorless version if I can find it.
Tea and Art is the channel that used the transparent nail art clay to make the mushrooms. I thought it might work well with colour added to make more translucent things like grapes or other fruit.
It's so crazy I just happened to click on this video and not 5 min ago I was frustrated by a mold just like the one here that I tried air dry clay in and it just stuck and came out in pieces. I will try liquid sculpey!
I love to watch you create from recycled items. When you are done, you have a beautiful finished miniature. In this case a whole room! I have been a big fan of your videos and have been inspired by your ideas.

Thank you 😊
It turned out beautifully!
Thank you 😊

My hands are always cut up and I'm not even sure why. Some of it is from gripping aerial apparatuses like split silks and the steel Lyra hoop
@queencityminis I wish you would consider one day making a video of yourself doing your aerial routine (? I can't remember what it's called)! I find it fascinating, scary, and beautiful! I would love to see it.
