Reminds me of my bed at my dads house, nothing like a good old spring in your spine to lull you to sleep.

@BentleyHouseMinis 5 лет назад

Oh no! Ouch!

you're such a great teacher and I love how detailed everything is

@janinelew2483 4 года назад

That’s the nicest dollhouse mattress I've ever seen! I love the way you built it first, then built the bed around it. I also liked the template technique you used for the bed. That looked so much easier.🤗 When you started distressing the mattress, I was yelling “no, it’s too pretty”.😁

@BentleyHouseMinis 4 года назад

I am so glad this video was helpful for you! Sorry for the distressing lol! But if it goes into the Addams house its gotta get a little messed up ;)

@darciemerriweather1206 3 года назад

I agree

@JChiibs 5 лет назад

Thank you for the mattress tutorial (and real measurements!) I generally have to divide full sized measurements by 11.25 for the scale I most commonly use but I have smaller scale as well. Not having to guess sizes or even hunt down full sized measurements is really nice. Thank you!

@BentleyHouseMinis 5 лет назад

You're welcome!! I figure if I have to look them up anyway I might as well share :) Thanks for watching!

@peacharvest6160 Год назад

2,000 likes added to your total I love this as is AND can see so much potential. I love the quilted look and the advice on fabrics to use for more dated mattresses, though a modern version one might have white on white floral. Either way you gave such inspiration. As an uncle fester bed, for extra distressed look, I might have added a tear in your hard work to let the stuffing out and used a pen's spring or similarly sized coil for a popped spring. Thank you so much for your hard work and for sharing.

@lickthismiff 4 года назад

This is so insanely good! The amount of work and detail in the mattress is incredible, I'm almost surprised you didn't figure out a way to make 1/12 scale bedbugs, just for the sake of completeness!

@BentleyHouseMinis 4 года назад

Oh goodness! That would be some good detail and probably appropriate for the scene... but it would give be the chills lol! Thank you so much!!💖💖

Oh my at the details of an old worn mattress that you get! I love it. Crazy how real it looks! I like the idea of a bare bed with one blanket and bare pillow. But I’m very late to the party. Been sick for a long long time. I love it thank you for sharing. 💙

Knobs is what we call 'em. Bed knobs! I like the look of the stained mattress, it would be a shame to cover it up. Maybe his sheets, dirty sheets, could be heaped on the floor or hanging off the bottom of the bed and draped on to the floor.

@BentleyHouseMinis 5 лет назад

Great idea Angela!! Maybe like there were sheets at one time that got kicked off, or never made it back onto the mattress! Fun!

@fredericapanon207 3 года назад

Now, you have reminded me of the Disney movie "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" with Angela Lansbury in the main role, a newbie witch.

(Finial is also correct, though, and is used for those terminal decorations on all sorts of things, including banisters.)

@jojosmumdorothy2829 Год назад

Feeling fed up I decided to find something on RU-vid that would lift my spirit and yay I found 1 video of yours that I missed. Its ideal you lift me up and I needed ideas for a mattress added bonus. Got a ? What is quilt matting please ? I also know a way they made pocket quilts you might like to use at some point or anyone else. They used these in wartime etc . You make a square ⬛ pocket sew up 3 sides turn inside out stuff it. Make enough to cover a single or double quilt/duvet once filled stitch them together and add a backing and you have yourself a pocket quilt look them up you will get the idea better with pictures. Thanks for cheering me up hun xxxx

You could use a sponge with some fabric around it for the mattress but it’ll be very soft, but that’s good right?? Lol

@beatrixthegreat1138 3 года назад

Well it depends on who can benefit from a soft mattress. I mean if you’re three inches tall and have back problems too soft isn’t going to help you.
