That was adorable. Never had YT recommend this or any thing like it. I watch cats and other small animals all the time. Glad you got to do this so I can tell my daughter for the grand sons.
Enchanting. Your ideas are magically enchanting. I love the way you re-did the modern doll house furniture pieces. Thanks for the inspiration, Ara. Love this mouse house already! 🥰
It's so cool to see you collaborate with such a big channel Ara. You have done so much over the years. What was it like to see your project used like this? Normally you are the one writing the story!
It was really fun to see someone else bring the project to life... especially in such a fun way! And I really appreciate Aaron reaching out to me because he recognized that it was going to take a miniaturist to get the result he wanted (as opposed to finding something mass made out there). I love seeing the miniature arts being appreciated in any form!
Whoa -the interchangeable walls are an amazing concept! The ideal small space dollhouse. Love the little mice furniture but then again I am biased since I am making a mouse house.
Definitely could work for a small space! I am thinking of making one for display purposes one day because I hope to have a table at future minis shows!
Hi Ava 🤗🤗 a good trick to make paint look like stone is to add some baking powder to the paint😹😹 I learned this trick a while back, another way is sifting sand with an extra fine sieve and use the extra fine sand dust in the paint 😹😹😹 a good option for bark is from the Aussie gum trees their bark peels off every year and I find it laying around all the time it’s very thin and you could use it like wood vernear (sorry not sure how to spell the word😿) I would have sent you some but it would have to go through quarantine so if anyone lives near an Aussie gum tree in California maybe they could source you some 😊😊 that’s the only place I know has the Aussie gum trees growing 😹😹 Love the set, I like how it’s interchangeable to creat different rooms, and I love the added touch of the family portrait 😹😹😹
Wonderful video and awesome project! But you know I just can't help adding my 2 cents worth. I have found that when differentiating between wood and bark, bark tends to have some gray tones. Replacing one or two of the tones (light,mid,dark) with gray instead of brown can really make bark pop.
Great point! There are so many different colors in tree bark and in wood. When I have more time on things I def like to try out different colors but for this build I had to speed paint lol!
Brilliant! I really hope that you will do a video or videos on making the set with the interchangeable wall please. I love the idea and yours looks like such a simple design! Great for photographing photo stories! Thank you for sharing this!
I think the bark pieces could have used a hint of green in some places. For that moss stuff that always grows on it. You definitely make me feel so much more comfortable with making premade furniture into something that is my own!
That would definitely add something to it! I was making this for someone else so I had to hold back my typical grungy-ness lol!! If it were stay with me I would have added a lot more moss and dirt!
This is really lovely and the idea of interchangeable walls has given me inspiration for something like that for a Barbie doll house that takes up minimal room.
Ara , thank you so much for your Aaron’s Animals recommendation in the description box. I have subscribed to him now. I loved the mini movie featuring your Mini Mouse House 🤗
The video they did using your creations was too cute. I love your design. It was great that used your sister’s picture. Your furniture is fabulous. Thank you for sharing. I love your beautiful dog.
That was awesome,what brilliant ideas for the furniture and the walls that you can change around is so clever.Thank you for sharing your work with us,it is amazing.
Wow! That is fabulous! Love the set a d the flexibility that design offers! The tissue paper trick really transformed the store bought furniture. You’re so clever! Love it.
Love this so much! The remake of the dining room set was my favorite. It turned out so perfect! You are an awesome designer, craftsman , and creator of all things miniature! Looking forward to your next creation! ☮️💕
I thought the set was great. Now that I have seen in person how it looks when you make something look like real wood I'll always have a better idea of what your doing. I just love how it turns out!
Its weird how different it is seeing something in person isn't it? It always blows my mind at miniature shows to see everything close up... the details are always astounding!
WOW, simply WOW!!!!! I rarely comment but I couldn't not on such an AWESOME build. I would enjoy watching you build something with interchangeable walls, etc. Your creativity is inspiring.
Adorable!!! The interchangeable wall system is an awesome feature! Also, I feel like a doggo, who has been trained with a clicker, and now I feel so confused when there are so few of them. xD
Oh that is soooooo gorgeous. I love the idea of the interchangeable panels. Another thought. You could also have one or two 'carpets' for different filming projects. Either the full size of the floor as flooring or rugs. You are just amazing.
You are super talented with a fantastic imagination. I watched the episode with your house and it was amazing! The show was funny, how he gets the cats to say still I haven’t a guess. Excellent work Ara, as usual.
I thought that you could use a thin tool with a flat or slightly rounded edge to twist the bark paper thereby making those nice knots in natural wood. It would probably just require extra wide paper. They could be different sizes if you have different size tools but I guess you could make them with twigs, too. And I also thought, wouldn't it be fun to have one large hole-knot with a tiny red robin sitting on the edge with some teensy weensy eggs inside. It would be like the robin was using that piece of tree for its home and decided to come along and lay her eggs there. It could look even better with a roof with a hole in it.
5:25. Seeing all those tools was but beautiful and jealous inspiring lol Is there a video covering what tools you have and use somewhere on the channel. If not, would you consider making one? Thank you so much sharing this video. You've inspired me so much to experiment and try new things in my crafting.
I love the interchangable walls..... im trying to figure a castle for my daughters Pullip. She wants the pullip to be a celtic druid and the castle to be a nightlight and 2 or 3 stories and interchangable with bedrrom, potions and a side room for growing herbs, library with desk and scrolls and rune books and stuff, kitchen, sitting room with spinning wheel and then attach some kind of weather sounds to it..... she is afraid of the dark hence the nightlight, trouble sleeping with rls and insomnia, and maybe i will get her a defuser for lavendar ..... maybe connected to a cauldren so its steam looks like smoke..... thats what im doing.... lol she is 33 now... we just started the plans for her bday in march.
I love your work so much, so many good ideas. I had to laugh, I swallowed my coke wrong and it was right at the point when you asked if your dog was okay. It sounded like you were talking to me lol
I mean.........Alexa play " no words left to describe" cause this is amazing✨✨✨like the transformation, the painting, the textureing and the skill you have is just out of this world ❤️❤️❤️
