Update of my projects right now

 I have not blogged in a few days now, but I have made miniatures that I'll show you =)

This is part of a work of art that will be in the "book room". I shall do a lot of flowers that will hang from the ceiling. But there is still much to do.

This is what I´ve been done to "the tiny house".
It got a roof now, I´ve put "glass" in the windows, columns on the balcony, and some frames around the windows. Not done.

This is curtains for the "book room" I will be adding some details later.

I saw a tutorial on how to make handbags, so I tried it. But this is not done yet. 

I have looked everywhere for a toyplane in real size for my sons room, but I havn´t found it anywhere.
I found a tutorial on how to make one in miniature. It was pretty easy, so I've done a few now. later I will paint them, and put it in the children's room in the doll house =) Maybe do a realsize also and put in my son´s room. 


I was going out dancing this weekend and found that they had very pretty
cocktail sticks there. Do you have a tip for what I can do with them? I was thinking about some modern lamps or something. Please help with tips, all of you are so creative  =)

Messy bed tutorial

I learned a great thing on Elisabeth´s blog (studioeminiatures.blogspot.com)
How to make fabric crumple, draped, nice folded, or just messy looking.
This is how I did it:

I doublefolded and cut out a piece of tin foil, a little bigger than the mattress.
 Then I cut out the fabric I had chosen, a little larger than the foil.
Glue the entire area of foil that lies against the fabric so that it is fixed to it.

 I put glue on all sides of the foil and folded the fabric.
And it´s done! 



 Then you can fold the fabric as you want it.
(and you can also do the same method on curtains)

 

Maybe the minipeople have a cat lying under the covers.
Or someone who hides... or doing other things...

Replys??

I have a question for you who use blogspot.

I have just started using blogspot.
What is the best way to reply to comments? Is it easier if you write the reply in the other person's blog or in my own? I want to write back to those who write to me, but don´t really know how to do.  
How do you use to do?

Thanks for your help =)

Wall of book pages

I am so in love with a house that Caroline who has the blog Cinderella Moments, has done
I love the style and decided to make a similar wall as she had done. It is papered with old book pages in miniature
So I found some pictures on the internet, and shrunk and printed it.



Then I sat all night and glued all the little book pages on the wall. I don´t really know how to decorate the room yet, but I put in some temporary furniture so that you can see how it looks with the wall anyway. 



I haven´t so many finished furniture yet, so I'm going to build some later, then it will be new furniture and a new style of this room.
Here´s a link to Caroline´s house, my inspiration =)

A Tiny house

Today I started a new project. I'll make a dollhouse in 1:144 scale. I found a template so that I could see how big the house would be but I don´t really know if it's the right size anyway.  
I cut out thin cardboard for the template and made it so that it became the way I want it. But it was difficult with the walls and cutting out windows, etc.. So I'll see what the result is, but now I have atleast tried =) 






I'll continue tomorrow, but now I should probably go get some sleep...
Good night!

In the candle-factory...

Today I made more candles. I mixed in crayons with the stearic this time to see if it got good results with different colored candles. You can see the results on my blog tomorrow =)



Advent calendars

Ok, I know I'm a little too late to tell about some Advent calendars that was in december.  
But I link them anyway because you can still use much of what was in them.  
There are tutorials, printies, inspiration and more.
I think it's good for myself also to have all the links I use on my blog so I do not need to bookmark and search through them on the computer.

I was so happy when I got paired with her, and last week I got the things she sent to me =)
I got two plants, a furniture, two books, a pillow, a christmas gift and wrapping paper, and a cute piggybank.
I loove to recive packages and soon she will have what I sent her too =) 
Thank you sooo much Brae!

I´m back!

Hello! I'm back!

I'm starting the new year with the renaming and moving my blog =) I used blogg.se before, but I think this suits me better.
I have not blogged for a while now because I've been busy all december.
Me and my friend were on holiday in Gran Canaria and enjoyed the sun and sea.
It was really wonderful to have a break and get away from the snow, the warm weather.
Then it's been Christmas and New Year's Eve.
Now I can finally relax and start crafting again.
Hope you had a good time during the holidays. Have a great 2013!
