After a considerable struggle with my mental health, I'm finally back with a new video and a new name. I might go into the details and specifics of this in a later video...we'll see. In the meantime, please enjoy my adventure of turning Dollar Tree items into 1:6 scale, Barbie-sized miniatures. This video was inspired by ‪@MyFroggyStuff‬

Adult doll collectors have been coming out of the closet so to say lol and I love knowing I share this enthusiasm with A LOT of others lol

@MinasMagic Год назад

Yes! I love that adults are now openly embracing hobbies that used to be considered "childish". And that many dolls and toys are finally being appreciated as the art they are 😁

I think you're great and I'm happy you were suggested and I too see almost everything small as Doll stuff 😊. Great to see others who think in 1/6th scale.

@MinasMagic 6 месяцев назад

"think in 1/6th scale"...I love that! Thank you and welcome ☺💜

@m4dmax973 Год назад

I go to the dollar store and do the exact same thing! I decided to make furniture for my daughter's doll house instead of buying the furniture! I just subscribe to you!

@MinasMagic Год назад

Thank you and welcome! 😄I love how creative and personal handmade miniature furniture is. You can play with shapes and colours in ways that aren't possible with full sized furniture.

@tinafigueroa7556 Год назад

You are too much fun and really adorable. I know it may not be what a 'serious RU-vidr' wants to hear but that's the point. You show a 'real' person's POV. I don't need anything done perfectly; I want to see what I could do at home. Very entertaining, Thank you.

@MinasMagic Год назад

Thank you so much! That's exactly what I want. To share things I love in a way that's accessible for anyone to also do. And when you know the ways I struggled, you won't be surprised if you struggle too, or you can find a way to do it even easier than I did.

@suecox2308 Год назад

I would move in there! Very 60s--perfect for Barbie.

@MinasMagic Год назад

I feel that way too. Sometimes I would love for a shrink ray, so I could hang out in my miniatures (temporarily of course 😉)

@sharonkaysnowton 2 месяца назад

Hi, Mina- when I make miniatures for my Barbie I use E6000 glue. I like it better than the "hot glue" and do not have to worry about getting burned. I enjoyed your video.

@MinasMagic 2 месяца назад

Thank you. My only concern with E6000 is that my studio, being in the basement, doesn't have the best ventilation. I know I can wear a respirator, however, anyone else using the basement could be exposed. I'd rather I get hot glue burns than risk my family's health ☺💜

@sharonkaysnowton 2 месяца назад

I like the salad spinner way of making art. Hoping Dollar Tree still carry’s them in their stores.

@MinasMagic 5 месяцев назад

I hope you're able to get one. It's such a fun way to make art! The paint from Dollar Tree is perfect for it too because it's a little runnier than craft store acrylics ☺

@sharonkaysnowton 2 месяца назад

Ps When I make my doll houses I make them with really big Office Depot cardboard boxes. I can get 2 big boxes and glue one on top for an upstairs. then you can cut out doors, windows, etc and put in flooring and baseboards, etc. They hold up extremely well- about 5 years with wear from playing. But, they turn out beautifully. I spray paint with Rustoleum paint + primer. It works great and makes great Barbie Dreamhouses.

@MinasMagic 2 месяца назад

Fabulous tip! I wonder if Staples (being a similar store) would have comparable boxes. That's awesome to know they hold up so well. Spray paint would give the walls and ceilings a beautiful finish. Thank you so much for sharing! 💜

@normanshadow1 Год назад

Nice job! If i was a kid who loved Barbies, I would think you were pure magic. I use a hair dryer to soften the glue to rip apart that $tree furniture

@MinasMagic Год назад

Thank you so much! Your comment warms my heart ☺ I will definitely have to remember the hair dryer next time! Thanks for the tip 💜

@recoveringsoul755 Год назад

I also heard some pop them into the microwave for a few seconds, if you don't have a hair dryer

@judycee4 Год назад

I use the microwave on the Dollar Tree furniture, also. Microwave works great for softening the glue

@Fur_ball Год назад

LOVE trash to treasure in anything but especially 1/12 scale miniatures! The dinning room table was 1/12 and the floor lamp was 1/6 but I bet I could modify it for 1/12.

@MinasMagic Год назад

1/12 scale is my favourite too. I mostly work in 1/6 scale to get my daughter excited about miniatures, as she finds the bigger size less frustrating. I'd love to see how the lamp would work in 1/12. If you do modify one, feel free to tag me, I'd love to see it 💜

@Fur_ball Год назад

@@MinasMagic will do, hun. I hope your daughter gets the mini bug. Imagine all of the outings you could have. Collaborate with her on ideas on making miniatures. I'm actually jealous but happy for you.

@karen4you Год назад

I see that the tea light legs evolved a bit and it's a great idea. Maybe a beam diagonally in the ceiling and it could be a hanging light. Or use a Christmas chandelier with a small tea light in it for another look. Many good ideas, thanks.

@MinasMagic Год назад

Great ideas! I'm actually toying with the idea of a ceiling light for my new dollhouse room, because there isn't enough floor space for the floor lamp. Great minds think alike ☺💜

@freqgirl 11 месяцев назад

I have so many questions. Why didn't you cover the chair in some fabric? it would have been super easy to do while it was apart. Also, why didn't you paint the 'dresser'? You could have made the plant's pot match the table by using the contact paper on it. There are some other questions, mainly about taking more time for finishing of the items. All in all, it was a good start for people if they need inspiraton. I just think you should have put a bit more detail into the rest of the items, like you did the table. For that I was a bit disappointed.

@MinasMagic 11 месяцев назад

To answer your questions, I was inspired by MyFroggyStuff. She had made similar things out of similar things and I wanted to see if I could make the things and have them look as good. That's why I didn't let my creativity run wild. I did make some changes to the original inspo and I love that you thought of even more. That's what I adore about creative communities...the building of creative inspiration off and encouragement of one another! (preferably without judgement 😁)

@LJW1102 Год назад

I put that table in the micro wave for a minute and the glue loosened and legs came off nice and clean.
