❤ YOU TOTALLY WORKED THOSE DETAILS! I NEED TO DO A PLANT LEAF WITH SLITS LIKE THAT plus THE SHADING WAS GREAT! I Appreciate the mention, YOU made My Day!🥹😊 I Love YOUR Channel! The Chair upgrade was Perfect! I Truly Loved everything but the Chair and the plant were My Favorites!🎉 THANK YOU for Sharing your Gift!
I am so glad you enjoyed the video!! And thank you for sharing all of your wonderful ideas or I would have have struggled so much with those plants. Your tutorials are so fantastic❤❤ Thank you Gretchen!!
@@BentleyHouseMinis You are So Kind! What a Sweet Compliment! I sincerely appreciate your encouragement and support. Your channel is EPIC! Thank you for your feedback!😃❤❤
Love the idea of the convertible worm hole! When you do the second floor, you could even do a magnetic worm coming from the ceiling so that it too could be convertible if you want it to look normal!🖤
That is a really great idea! I also very much agree that the convertible wormhole is awesome and I hope Ara will make it, I love those references to the events of the movie!!
OOoh that is a good idea! Hmm ok I will have to think through that! Maybe that's the way to go rather than the hole... its the moment before the hole happens! Love it!
I think the wormhole is a great reference because it's Beetlejuice's demise. Love your work Ara. I watch you make these things and somehow when it's finished it looks way fancier than I imagined. Warm wishes from Minnesota! ❤️❤️❤️ May your pencils always be sharp and your colors never bleed.
I hope you make the Maitlands heads convertible so you can switch out their normal heads for the creepy ones they used to scare the Deetz family with. Also, please add the worm hole in the living room floor; that rug would be perfect to hide it and give you options to change out the scenes you want to display.
I think I am going to have to make something that fits over their heads because it will be hard to change them out. I will see what I can do! I may also do some kind of art feature like Delia sculpted them... we shall see!
Maybe the living room hole could be a black mirrored glass with lights underneath? Something like the infinity mirror you made for the captain. This way you can turn it on and off and it might look like a sleek “glass” rug for Delia whenever it is turned off! Love your videos btw! Cheers from Brazil :)
I love all those accessories. Fabulous and so very Delia! I'd like to see a convertible hole in the living room floor. Beetlejuice wants a new place to lurk! Fun fact: in the wedding industry, Fabritack is called "bridal snot" and Beetlejuice approves 😜
Definitely add the removable floor with the sand worm coming out of the ceiling! Maybe you can glue a heavy magnet to the worm and to the ceiling to hold him in place but can still be removed for the normal scene.
The plants and chair and accessories and rug and coffee table and shadow guy are all just amazing! BeetleGuy is such a little rascal...I got the giggles seeing him pop up here and there. I learned a bunch in this video, so, thank you!! Great ideas as always. That painting...you nailed it!
It‘s so much fun seeing the beetlejuice house coming together. You could make the living room carpet double-sided; one side is the normal carpet, and the other side is an illusion hole in the floor. That way, you get two setups with one item.
That is a really fun idea too! I don't know if my paint skills are good enough to make a fake hole but it would be fun to try! I will definitely keep that in mind!
I think the hole would be a really fun thing to add to the project, especially if it's convertible between the hole and the intact floor (with the rug hiding everything) So if you have time and energy for that in the future, I absolutely vote for it. Also, I loved how... that guy... kept showing up all the time. It's just like him to always cause trouble! 😀
I love the plants and the shout out to Little Gretchen's Workshop. I have learned so much from both of you. 🥰 Delia's style is growing on me, too. If you're still thinking about adding her refrigerator as a kit in your store, I would definitely order one! 🙂
Yes I definitely want to add the fridge to the store in the future! I have a whole list of kits I want to make that I am behind on lol🤦♀️ I am so glad you enjoyed the video😊
@@BentleyHouseMinis Personally, I already have over a year's worth of projects lined up, so I'm not in any hurry. 😄 But I do plan on getting one when they're available.
what might work in the nook under the Staircase is maybe, an old fashion rocking chair. that after everything Deliah lets Barbara and Adam also make it their home a little, so they place one Piece of their old Mobilier there. or maybe you could make a Telefone Nook there.
I like the idea of the convvertable hole in the floor, maybe you could do the same for the fireplace? Then it can be either a normal ish house or all beetlejuice-ified
Hi Ara :) This video came out today on my birthday! Plus I order your book as birthday present to myself lol. So I got 2 gifts a book and video. Thanks for all your inspiration and knowledge that you share with us.
Love the intro music for Bettlegust!!!! So awesome!! Also your furniture is soo cool everything looks great ❤❤ Please do the outer worldly hole in the livingroom that would even add more character...and I understand about a waundering Beetlejuice lol. I had a miniture of him for my "movie prop" shelf and he would always be found in the oddest of places sometimes 😂 especially around Halloween time.
It would look amazing if you made the hole in the living room floor! Your lighting idea sounds really cool, and I think it would take the design of the house to the next level. You can already show the house in two different instances (before Beetlejuice and after Beetlejuice lol), with the way the fireplace looks normal when unlit and otherworldly when glowing green. I love your creativity, and am enjoying so much watching you create this project!
Wow! You did not miss a beat with that shadow man..and the hole in the floor sounds like a great idea, bc I know you will nail it, and if not you can always hide it with the rug😂😂 Love the plant, it was one of the first techniques I learned when I started making miniatures. That Beetlejuice just loves to be a nuisance, doesn't he😂😂👏🏽👏🏽❤❤
Well you blew my mind again with your creativity!! You always amaze me with your talent, and of course your sense of humor. I literally laughed out loud each time B.J. made an appearance. I loved everything you created....applause.
Oh I am SOOOOOOOOO excited to see this come together! I love how you did the picture behind the bar ~ and the covered bridge is a wonderful addition. And the chair turned out great! Love the silhouette and the bar items, too. I would LOVE to see the hole in the floor in the wedding scene. I never realized the simplicity of color in the house. Blue, red, black white, gray. All of Delia's items work together in a way I never appreciated before. And Otho. I. know you started to make him... he needs to be tending bar and making inappropriate incantations!!! 🤣 Oh. And darn that B..... I won't say his name. He just keeps CROPPING UP EVERYWHERE!! What will happen when you make the face in Charles' office???!!!!
Haha yes! And I am thinking of making him in his leisure suit which would be a really fun reference lol! Thank you so much Kat! So glad you liked it all❤
Absolutely terrific video. I always find that the little things, while being the most exciting, are often the fiddly part of the project. And I have, on some occasions, set things up and inadvertently knock them down. And I think Beetlejuice will turn up even if you stored him outside. Sometimes, it's best to just let the crazies be crazy. Love this video!! As usual.
Haha yes I have knocked everything over multiple times this past week. That's why I glued the bar stuff to the tray... I don't want to go looking for tiny spoons... again😄 Thanks Pat!
Ara! I just made my first purchase from your store and am soooooo excited to get it in!! My SO's kiddo and I are making some of their digital art into a real-life diorama for dad's Christmas gift this year. We made him minis for his birthday in june and took so much inspiration from your videos. You're helping our newly-formed family to bond and we appreciate you so much 💕
Hi Mini friend! You're really going to love the items from Ara! I have been watching her videos since COVID, so a few years now-WOW time has flown, and I've purchased several of the kits and not too long ago she offered OOPS kits. Those contain sheets of various kits that didn't pass Ara's stringent quality control. She does try to have at least one finished piece from those sheets, but it's not guaranteed. I ordered 5 OOPS kits and from those I was able to cobble together 3 complete kits! The other pieces have been used to make other pieces of my own design and the empty sheets make fantastic greebles! You're all going to have so much fun putting the kits together and I highly recommend watching Ara's other videos, if you haven't already done so, because the things she makes and the way she presents the info is awesome!
@odessawellington3388 Thank you so much for your order and I hope you enjoy putting it together! I love that you are sharing the love of mini-making with the kids and making gifts with it! That's wonderful that it's something you can bond over❤ I love it!!
@kellypenny2996 Thank you so much for the awesome review of my store and kits! I am so glad you enjoyed the OOPS kits. I don't want to say 'I hope I have more soon' because that means I messed something up😄, but people did seem to enjoy them when they happen naturally lol!
Love Little Gretchen’s Workshop… it’s always great to see channel creators learn from each other and give one another shout outs. I’m always either like, oh I bet know where you got that idea, or wow I need to check them out. It’s a great community ❤
Awesome work! I love the painting. I get such a kick over how you have grown to appreciate Delia's style. I remember the movie vaguely from long ago (gotta rewatch!), but I was struck by how much Delia's style was presented as atrocious, ha ha. Your running gag about Beetlejuice reappearing was really funny 😃
I felt that way too watching the movie. I think it's mostly because of her sculptures lol! Which, to be honest, are a bit atrocious! But behind those, the design of the house is really interesting! Thanks so much!
Such amazing details as always!! As much as I LOVE the Addams Family house I think for the fun factor this is my new favorite. Also it's Beetlegust of course Beetlejuice is making his presence known. 🤘😎🤘
I feel like I need more words to say fantastic! Sorry I’m late seeing this..rough week, though now I get to see two in a row. You constantly amaze me, that painting…WOW! I vote create the hole but have it be able to be hidden by the rug, best of both worlds. 🧡🖤🧡🖤🧡
The portrait looks fantastic! I love the shout out to the residents of the home, either past or present, and the added personal touches you added! The plant looks great, and I'm sure Delia would approve of all the pieces. Personally, I have always thought Delia's decorating skill and style, though beginning with Otho's influence, has always been far and above his. A case of the student has become the master, more or less 😂. I think a rug covered portal to sandworm land is an excellent design element! Also, Beetleguese's escapades during the video are spot on and soooooo him! LOL 😂 I'm pretty sure I saw him, there at the last, hanging out on the neighbors roof. Im sure they'll all het along famously! 😂😂
Ara, I’ve been binge-watching your livestreams and tutorials, they’ve all helped me get out of my crafting rut. This one is another winner. I appreciate you putting a bunch of projects into one video. That’s a ton of work. Everything turned out amazing.
I love all the different little projects. I hadn’t realized how concerned beetle juice’s eyebrows made him look. That really cracked me up. It makes him look a lot less mean than in the movie so that’s good.
It is so much fun watching you make accessories and furniture. I loved seeing your little collection of miniatures and how you customized some of them to fit the project. The cheese balls are hilarious! Making a taller back cushion for the chair makeover was a great call. It looks like it was made for the space. The coffee table couldn't be more perfect! I love the tray you made for the top.
Thank you my friend!! I really do need to hide the cheeseballs somewhere. They would make sense in Charles study too... like he is hiding them from Delia😄 I am so glad you liked those pieces!😊
I just love every single detail you create! The art, the bar, the plants, creepy wall guy, etc!!! Thanks for these fun and creative videos! Beetleju...😂
I vote for cutting a hole in the floor, but having the option of covering it up with the rug when you want to change it. I’m so impressed on how amazing this is coming out always excited every time you have a new video on it. ❤❤❤
The creativity!! So many cool ideas! You would think that recreating a movie house would be straight forward, maybe even a little boring, but no! This is exciting, creative and FULL of whimsy.
😊 I am so glad to hear that! It really has stretched my skills in new ways because the finishes are all so modern. Its a very different experience from the Addams house!
Fabulous job! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I love the idea of a changeable floor, with a rug, but also a hole to the netherworld; that would be great fun. Can't wait for the Maitland's arrival. 😊
Wow! It's looking so great. That cheeky Beatlejuice. You might have to put a padlock on your drawer. This project is amazing. Can't wait to welcome the Maitland's home next week :)
Ahh another great video. ❤ You truly do make very interesting and just fun videos for us all to watch and enjoy. Much love, have a great week. 🏠🎨 Also as a designer and interior designer lover I have also grown to love Delias outlandish and very bold use of colour and shape in the house (it’s almost Brutalist) . It also contrasts so well against all the crazy looks of the characters. It’s u]such a fantastic movie and rather a universe that was made. 🪱🪲🖤🤍f
OMG, I never noticed the significance of that painting in the movie LOL! It looks amazing you are truly an artist and I love your edition of the bridge
Ara you are so talented and inspire me so much! I watch Little Gretchen too and she’s great. Her dolls are especially so well made! Gretchen is also a talented miniaturist 💜💜💜
So amazing! I love watching little Gretchen also. You both have been 2 of the ones that got me going in my Addams Family house. And I say go for that opening in the floor I think it will give it that effect of the movie of what you are doing to come together. Looks like Beetlejuice is trying to distract you from adding it so he can go on with his plan 🖤
I definitely think he's trying to keep my distracted lol! Thank you and I am so happy to hear you were encouraged to make your own Addams Mansion! Yay!
I'm really loving all that you're doing with this lil house!! I'd get the entire floor and the dolls finished, then decide if there was time (and energy) to knock a hole in the living room floor plus add more lighting. Great job on everything, Ara!
Thanks Bev! I will definitely save the hole for when I get to the lighting because maybe I can add the green lights in there too! I will have to make a lighting list for Mr. Tech😄
Yes, Sandworm hole!!!! Love it all, as usual Ara. Your paintings especially intrigue me, because I don't think I can paint paintings, but I'm going to try eventually
Yes you should definitely give it a try! In some ways, painting in miniature can be easier (in my mind) you don't have to worry about tiny details because you wouldn't be able to see them anyway lol!
Wow, it is looking SO good, I think doing miniatures in such a modern style is so fun, we always tend to go with old fashioned styles and by-gone eras, this is super interesting!
I think making the living room convertible would be awesome. Especially if the house were to be shown at a museum. It would give people something new to see and discover, like you did with Pubert and the Addams Family house.
Every time you finished a miniature, I literally said out loud, "wow, that looks amazing!" I also loved the touch of Beetlejuice persistently lurking around the project Edit: pretty sure I found him at the end 😂 he'd probably get along pretty well with that family

Shouldn’t we give Otho some credit, wasn’t he the designer 😂
😄True!! It was a joint effort I am sure!
1 vote for rug concealing the otherworldly living room hole
I hope you make the Maitlands heads convertible so you can switch out their normal heads for the creepy ones they used to scare the Deetz family with.

Definitely add the removable floor with the sand worm coming out of the ceiling! Maybe you can glue a heavy magnet to the worm and to the ceiling to hold him in place but can still be removed for the normal scene.

I love the Stormy fabric chair 😊... yes, yes, yes to the convertible floor! Sounds amazing ❤
It‘s so much fun seeing the beetlejuice house coming together. You could make the living room carpet double-sided; one side is the normal carpet, and the other side is an illusion hole in the floor. That way, you get two setups with one item.

@@BentleyHouseMinis true at the last musical number. it could symbolise a bit that they now all life in peace together

I might do that at some point!!
Hi Ara :) This video came out today on my birthday! Plus I order your book as birthday present to myself lol. So I got 2 gifts a book and video. Thanks for all your inspiration and knowledge that you share with us.
Happy birthday Candi!! I hope you have the best day ever! And thank you so much for ordering the book😊 I hope you enjoy it!
I love being able to follow you every step of the way on a big project like this. Can't wait to see the main cast finally join Beetlejuice!
Thank you! Yes Beetlejucie has been left along by himself in the house for too long... he needs some other people to balance him out!
Love the intro music for Bettlegust!!!! So awesome!! Also your furniture is soo cool everything looks great ❤❤
Please do the outer worldly hole in the livingroom that would even add more character...and I understand about a waundering Beetlejuice lol. I had a miniture of him for my "movie prop" shelf and he would always be found in the oddest of places sometimes 😂 especially around Halloween time.
Haha I am glad to know it's not just me with a wondering Beetlejuice lol! So glad you enjoyed it and like the idea! Thank you!
It would look amazing if you made the hole in the living room floor! Your lighting idea sounds really cool, and I think it would take the design of the house to the next level.

So relaxing watching someone else work on their project. thanks again for the watch.

I am so excited about the lights too... it will totally change the feel of the space!
Beej hanging out on top of the Fairfield at the end is very cute
You found him!
I vote for cutting a hole in the floor, but having the option of covering it up with the rug when you want to change it. I’m so impressed on how amazing this is coming out always excited every time you have a new video on it. ❤❤❤
Thank you! Yes I definitely want to be able to hide it. It will be fun to change out the house on a whim lol!
Beetlejuice moving around creeped me out lmao
Lol sorry!
I love how it's coming out and all the Beetlejuice appearances had me giggling
So glad you enjoyed it!
The creativity!! So many cool ideas! You would think that recreating a movie house would be straight forward, maybe even a little boring, but no! This is exciting, creative and FULL of whimsy.
😊 I am so glad to hear that! It really has stretched my skills in new ways because the finishes are all so modern. Its a very different experience from the Addams house!
Fabulous job! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I love the idea of a changeable floor, with a rug, but also a hole to the netherworld; that would be great fun. Can't wait for the Maitland's arrival. 😊
Thank you Elaine! 😊 I am hoping to get started on them today!
Wow! It's looking so great. That cheeky Beatlejuice. You might have to put a padlock on your drawer. This project is amazing. Can't wait to welcome the Maitland's home next week :)
Definitely! If he keeps getting out I will have to add a couple locks😄 Thank you so much!
I love the idea of a convertible living room!!! That would be really cool!
Yes on the living room wormhole with cover!
You did Delia proud.❤
Enjoyable diversion watching you do this. I look forward to each video. Nice painting.
Thank you very much Tina😊
The convertible wormhole sounds great!
Beyond excited
The frog tape is a genius idea! I am really going to try that 😍 thank you!
Ahh another great video. ❤ You truly do make very interesting and just fun videos for us all to watch and enjoy. Much love, have a great week. 🏠🎨
Also as a designer and interior designer lover I have also grown to love Delias outlandish and very bold use of colour and shape in the house (it’s almost Brutalist) . It also contrasts so well against all the crazy looks of the characters. It’s u]such a fantastic movie and rather a universe that was made. 🪱🪲🖤🤍f
Thank you!!😊 I hope you have a fantastic week as well!
The convertible wormhole would be so cool! Especially if it lit up.
OMG, I never noticed the significance of that painting in the movie LOL! It looks amazing you are truly an artist and I love your edition of the bridge
Thank you! I really never noticed it before either so I was happy to draw it out and add my own spin😊
Wow 🤩 what a marvelous work you done. So awesome.
Thank you for sharing great video . I learn so much from you 👍
Delia would love that lounge.
So much detail. That's so beautiful.
It's coming out awesome! If you wish to make the ceiling off camera then that's ok. Have a great weekend.
Thank you Briana! It will be quite an undertaking when I get to that point!
@@BentleyHouseMinis Yw, take all the time you need.
🎉aww stormy is adorable 🎉
Ara you are so talented and inspire me so much! I watch Little Gretchen too and she’s great. Her dolls are especially so well made! Gretchen is also a talented miniaturist 💜💜💜
I agree!! Her doll videos were some of the first ones I watched and immediately subbed!😊 Thank you Sara!
love the idea of the cracked floor with a light beneath!
So amazing! I love watching little Gretchen also. You both have been 2 of the ones that got me going in my Addams Family house. And I say go for that opening in the floor I think it will give it that effect of the movie of what you are doing to come together. Looks like Beetlejuice is trying to distract you from adding it so he can go on with his plan 🖤
I definitely think he's trying to keep my distracted lol! Thank you and I am so happy to hear you were encouraged to make your own Addams Mansion! Yay!
Love the colours 😍 Great project 🖤💚❤💙🖤
I'm really loving all that you're doing with this lil house!! I'd get the entire floor and the dolls finished, then decide if there was time (and energy) to knock a hole in the living room floor plus add more lighting. Great job on everything, Ara!
Thanks Bev! I will definitely save the hole for when I get to the lighting because maybe I can add the green lights in there too! I will have to make a lighting list for Mr. Tech😄
The plants look amazing!
Looks absolutely amazing!!! ❤😊❤
It looks wonderful! In the movie I hadn't realized there was so much color in the house. Love the bar and the painting and the plants especially.
It is very colorful! Delia is associated with black and white and her monstrous sculptures but her house has color everywhere! So glad you liked it!
Yes, Sandworm hole!!!! Love it all, as usual Ara. Your paintings especially intrigue me, because I don't think I can paint paintings, but I'm going to try eventually
Yes you should definitely give it a try! In some ways, painting in miniature can be easier (in my mind) you don't have to worry about tiny details because you wouldn't be able to see them anyway lol!
The plants turned out so awesome!
Wow, it is looking SO good, I think doing miniatures in such a modern style is so fun, we always tend to go with old fashioned styles and by-gone eras, this is super interesting!
I think so too! I tend to go towards the old fashions as well so this has been a really fun challenge!
I can’t wait for the new beetle juice movie to come out!
How awesome is this ?!!!!! So amazing!🤩
Your talents never cease to amaze me! Truely love watching your videos !
Thank you so much David!😊
I think making the living room convertible would be awesome. Especially if the house were to be shown at a museum. It would give people something new to see and discover, like you did with Pubert and the Addams Family house.
So true! The staff could change it up every now and then!
Fish tank gravel is great for weighting stuff, you can buy small bags for really cheap 🐟 ....excellent work as per 👏 😊
the consealed hole is a great idea!
It looks fabulous! I have always loved Dalias style
Wow! It looks so good! It's almost halfway done!❤❤❤ I can't believe Beeltegust is almost over for.the year!.😢
I know! It's gone by quickly for me this year too!
Every time you finished a miniature, I literally said out loud, "wow, that looks amazing!" I also loved the touch of Beetlejuice persistently lurking around the project
Edit: pretty sure I found him at the end 😂 he'd probably get along pretty well with that family
Aww thanks😊 Well it is Beetlegust after all lol! I had to let him be a little ... well... himself!😄
This was FANTASTIC 🎉🎉
This is such an awe moment, a very beautiful piece of art.
I still really want you to do a little "horse" theme for Barbra, her doing the mirror was like super iconic.
