    Gretchen, my DreamBox has arrived and been assembled, so I am saving these videos like crazy to watch these nuggets of fabulousness again once I have all of my supplies organized. I inherited a TON of flat-backed crystals for diamond art from a friend so I will be making and gifting a BUNCH those fancy button displays ❤ Also! I found my Paddington postcards!! How wild is that?!? I have a whole postcard stash that i found as I brought all of my supplies out to put it all in my DreamBox (praise for all of my stuff in 1 place 🙌🏼). Keep your eye out for a postcard visit from my friend and yours 🐻 😊

    I love how you make so many different items with multiple techniques. I think miniature spaces look more realistic, interesting and fun to look at when they're full of a variety of items.
    I love the small detail of adding the labels and wallpaper to the ends of the bolts of fabric. Great idea!
    Thanks for the shout-out :)

      Yes i truly believe in variety! My eye gets bored it it's too much similarity or "matchy matchy!" LOLOLOL!! I thought those embroidery floss labels were perfect but they were really shiny and the glue wouldn't stick. I had to clamp them down to make the catch, The I just switched to the wallpaper remnants! LOLOLOL!!! I truly Love your work! I struggled so bad with those pony beads! I did end up making a couple but they were not cute like YOURS! LOLOLOL!!! I'll have to use them as a filler in the yarn basket!! LOLOL!!!Thank you for watching and your shouts as well!:) You have a great channel!

    Oh boy did this video bring back memories! I made a lot of these things for my mom's dollhouse about 25 years ago. They were a Christmas gift so I wrapped every single one of them in tiny little boxes and stacked them around a miniature tree and put that in a bigger box to wrap. It took her an hour to unwrap everything and she loved it! Unfortunately I don't have any of them. They were never found after she passed. I have an idea where they are but won't go there. I do have some of her fabric, ribbon, and other tid bits and will make something from them for my dollhouse.

    That was a lot of work! I roll the 'yarn' the old way ('cause I'm old)- I make a tiny square w. paper, tuck the end of the yarn in it, and then keep rolling the yarn as you did. The room is so wonderful- I admire your creativity, and as you may know, I watch all your posts.

    I especially loved the button cards. So simple but so good! I guess you can make the card longer and draw some kind of label like the manufacturer would print.
    And of course I also loved “bursting at the seams” 😂

    Okay, as a quilter, I love the big cone of thread! You have really inspired me to try to make more and more in my dollhouse! I am convinced you can make just anything. You just jump right in and suddenly, there is a wonderful thread spool, a bolt of fabric, or a kitchen cabinet....not to mention the beautiful dolls! Gretchen, you amaze me!

    The skewer end looks great as a cone of thread. 👍 It also really reminded me of one of those ring-stacking toys, which would definitely be out of place in the dress shop. 😄 Maybe another day... I love the little spools of thread and ribbon, and the tiny "buttons". 🥰 The "linen" paint really brought the dress forms to life! So many great accessories! I hope the men have been busy getting the house ready to hold them all! 😊

After seeing you using those nail studs quite a few times I ordered some online, they arrived today and I accidentally dropped a few while I was putting them into a container. Oh lord they were hard to pick up with my clumsy fingers, this is going to be "interesting" trying to put them to use in future hahaha.
    I hadn't had much time to watch UA-cam for a few days, so it's been so nice getting my fix of Little Gretchens workshop. I can't wait to see what you come up with next x

I did some yarn skeins with pony beads last year, complete with wee wrappers on some of them. My daughter got a kick out of them because she's big into knitting. I learned the technique on Nasus Miniatures, another really talented miniaturist.
