Sharing the mini love...

I made this barn door for my bathroom a couple of weeks ago! I have also made a tutorial and you can see it at https://minimishmash.loverat.net/1-12-scale/sliding-barn-door-wheels-and-track/. Hope everyone is coping in our new, weird world ♥️♥️ #miniature #miniaturebathroom #miniatureworld #capaciouscolonial #miniaturetutorial #littlethings #oneinchscale #miniatureart #aussiedollhouse #dollhousebathroom #dollhousediy #tinythings #dollhouseminiatures #dollhouse #diydollhouse #miniatureartist #dollhousedoor #farmhouse #barndoor https://www.instagram.com/p/B93rMTjp-_C/?igshid=n0emg7ezx770

Sliding Barn Door Wheels and Track

Sliding Barn Door Wheels and Track

“Just The Wheels Maam”

Who doesn’t love a barn door? Great space savers and can be used as functional artwork!

I am not one for really technical tutorials with exact measurements and what not because I tend to make things on the fly and make it up as I go along. So having said that I won’t be explaining how to make the actual door because, yeah nah, I just took the required measurements and made…

More Wedding Gifts

More Replica Wedding Cakes and Bouqets

As I said in my last Wedding Gift post, last year my darling man had 2 daughters get married within a very short period of time! The last post showcased the first cake and bouquet and after finishing the Capacious Colonial bathroom, I finally bit the bullet and finished the second lot. I actually finished the cake awhile ago but kept procrastinating about…

Bathroom Finished – The fastest room yet

I would have to say this was definitely the fastest room so far.  I had a pretty good idea about what I wanted at the start so it was just a matter of actually making it. A divine spa bathroom is something I have never really had in real life and without winning some kind of mega lottery – is something I will likely never have.  SO what better way to…

Finally finished my ode to Morocco spa bathroom! The finishing touch was the pretty cushions by @yeslovehandmade which were just the perfect pattern and colour. I have the hardest time finding fabrics living out in the sticks. Anyhoo..done and onto the bedroom woohoo! https://www.instagram.com/p/B8lcsCch7xa/?igshid=1ic01l2h4o9nj

Finished! I am getting much more confident with making lights. Of course if any of the globes die I am in ALL kinds of trouble. Not much to go in the bathroom now. Weaving my first rug and still having trouble sourcing the right stuff for towels. And I want to make a kimono because if I'm having a sexy bathroom I need a sexy robe! And mules with feathers 😂 https://www.instagram.com/p/B7dMr2vpwFJ/?igshid=1b4gjqx3uu0s4

After slacking off a bit (I sometimes start gaming and forget to stop) I have started my pendant light for the bathroom. Been wanting to make one of these bohippy bead lights for ages. Want to stick wood to glass? Get some Weldbond glue it's the bomb! https://www.instagram.com/p/B7N5ezxhE7h/?igshid=zuzgtpitajve

These are Moroccan inspired sconces I made yesterday. The metal is about the thickness of a drink can. Some piercing, some denting (what on earth is the term for this?) with ball stylus thingy then glued onto a tiny basswood frame for sticking to the wall. How on earth I am going to disguise the wires on the outside of the house I have no clue. I'll think about that when I get to that point! One more light to go! https://www.instagram.com/p/B67zwP3JMhT/?igshid=1bkagfmln9woc

Hey darlings! I'm a little pissed (in Australia that means drunk mwaha) but I want to wish you all all a very Happy New Year and I can't wait to see what all you talented people come up with in 2020. Happy MINI new year and here's to gluing, cutting, painting and creating forever more ❣❣❣❣ #dollhouseminiatures #littlethings #dollhouse #miniatureworld #miniature #aussiedollhouse #dollhousediy #miniatureartist #miniatureart #oneinchscale #diydollhouse #miniaturemakover #tinythings https://www.instagram.com/p/B6vApmgBhfn/?igshid=1n2utqsdnzu5h

I have a loo! And some deco including some incense and teeny matches! Swipe for details. I've also discovered that making mini toilet paper is REALLY relaxing and zen like. Looks like the bathroom will be finished in the next few weeks. Of course I have left the lights till last because they always take me sooooo long. https://www.instagram.com/p/B6aU7_3px3B/?igshid=2jyreriomskl

Finished You Betcha!

I finished my living room at last! I think last time I showcased the couch and chairs and whatnot so it was just a matter of making some cushions and adding a light and the bits and pieces that make a room a home and here it is.

The only items I didn’t make myself are the glass items on the sideboard to the left of the fireplace. If I could make them I would but miniature…

I'm not always a bah humbug...I do like to make xmas pretties. Also as I don't decorate my home I use my xmas mini's as my only xmas decor! Etsy link in bio. Christmas even has it's own section, various scales. 🎄🎁 https://www.instagram.com/p/B5G5-fopHKo/?igshid=14ju3amw3fdb2

I bought a really old livingroom "model" kit off Ebay some time ago (circa late 70's) has sofa,chair,some tables and this secretaire thingy. Being as how normal furniture isn't really my thing I changed it into a bohoish revamped kinda dresser for my bathroom. The kit is SO old most of the bits of wood are warped so boy it was ahem.."fun". https://www.instagram.com/p/B4zU1NBJ2DK/?igshid=17a9ton7080eb

So proud! Can't have a bath without something to rinse off with after sitting in your own filth 😁 https://www.instagram.com/p/B4rtAa8phGn/?igshid=1gp43kp3z9ixr

[loveratsminimishmash]

Finished my sink! A cabinet I made aaages ago which I ruined by chopping a big hole in the top and sticking half a pedestal bowl thingy in. Bath is almost finished and it's onto the shower (easyish I hope) and toilet (which I have NO clue how to make or even if I want to) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4mgg4yJYEB/?igshid=1bnrpgylw7mkm

[loveratsminimishmash]

So the bathroom is coming along. The floor was dark like the rest of the house but I riiiiipped it out and sanded it back and I'm happier. Anyhoo behind the bath pedestal are the toilet and shower alcoves. I have also made a frosted Moroccan style window. Now onto the non buildy bits! https://www.instagram.com/p/B4ex953JP4h/?igshid=lso51vjoxvze

Lights! Camera! Action! Finally finished the ground floor with lights. I think the led lights are too white almost blue and I need to give them a dab of paint on the globes to tone them down. It annoys me having 2 different types of light.... https://www.instagram.com/p/B4R5A8gpgBs/?igshid=huhm5j0f0zk2
