Great tips thank you! 🤩

Hi Valerie and thank you 🙏🏻 😍 I have only used a Cricut machine so hopefully someone else can comment what settings you need for a Silhouette Cameo 👍🏻 if not I know several of my Facebook group members have Silhouettes so you could try asking in there 😁👌🏻✨✨✨

No problem you can just mute it and read the subtitles 😉👍🏻 I did a poll and people said they preferred it with the background music 🤣 so I can’t win either way, but at least you have the option to turn it down 👍🏻😍

Hi Teresa, a druzy is a collection/layer of smaller crystals on a surface, so it looks like lots of facets reflecting light 🤩✨✨✨

Hi lovely, you may have your browser settings to ‘warn of attachments’ or similar - you should just be able to click ‘allow’ somewhere on the warning box? 👍🏻

You could also use a different browser like Explorer 👍🏻 😁

If you still can’t download it send me an email to: spellboundminiatures@outlook.com and I’ll send it to you direct via email 😎

Oh please let me know the names of the online stores for crafts 🤩👍🏻I still mostly use Amazon and can often find things on the German Amazon that I can’t on the Spanish one 🤓✨✨✨

@@SpellboundMiniatures Hope these help....

Darn it.... I don't see the posts I just sent you

I'll send it to you via your Facebook page, in private

@@editek5992 sorry I think CZcams is not publishing the links - I’ve looked in my account and cannot see the links or how to ‘release’ them so thank you for sending them to me privately 💖👍🏻

Hi Antoinette it’s matboard/mountboard and it’s 1.5mm thick 😁👍🏻

Thank you so much lovely - and isn’t it funny I don’t like listening to my voice at all, but I think that’s the same for most people isn’t it😆👍🏻

Hi Veronica I printed them myself, got clear waterslide sheets from Amazon, printed them on an inkjet home printer and then sprayed a couple of coats of clear laquer on them and let them dry for 24 hours - it’s worth the extra steps to print your own because you can create whatever design you want 🤩👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@@SpellboundMiniatures Oh wow, that's cool! I will definitely look into that! I appreciate your reply. 😊❤️

@@veronicamaples612 if you’re in my Spellbound FB group I’ve got a video in there and you can download the png files for the images 👍🏻😉

Hi Darla the links are below the videos - and they’re all on the website www.spellboundminiatures.com 😁👍🏻

Hi Darla the links to the website with the files is in the description box below each video 👍🏻 click on the down arrow on the right under the video 😉👍🏻

If your laser cutter software uses svgs and you know how to upload them then yes 👍🏻 lots of customers already use our svgs on their laser machines - but I have no experience with a laser cutter so can’t advise beyond that I’m afraid 😁👍🏻

I try and keep things as straightforward as possible - but Cricut likes to keep me on my toes!! 😆👍🏻

Hi Elizabeth I wouldn’t want to engrave this material - it would not be a clean mark, the debossing tool is much better for this pattern and material - engraving is better for harder materials like acrylic and metal 👍🏻

Perfect thank you so much! I’m going to purchase the pattern from you and try this for my dollhouse I’m working on 😍 I’ve seen people put Spackle on to make grout lines and than sand would take work on this material? Or should I use chipboard or basswood ? Sorry for all the questions haha

@@elizabethcreighton because the debossed lines are so shallow you wouldn’t use spackle - just paint the whole piece (or just the lines) in your choice of shadow colour and dry brush the top colours you want - I’ve also used the Cricut pen to draw the lines on top of the debossed lines to accentuate the shadows 👍🏻

Thank you Claire! 🤩💖✨✨✨

Awesome, I’m glad it helped - and thank you 🙏🏻🤩

Hi do you mean the scoring stylus? If so, you need to change it back in the canvas section before you hit ‘make it’ - change the line type from deboss to score, then in the tools it will let you select scoring stylus 😁👍🏻

@@SpellboundMiniatures Thank you so very much! I didn't know this and can't find any info on the stylus in help. Thanks again! I will also use the debossed floor as a floor of a carriage.

Not yet! But I’m going to redo this method with a Christmas version so I’ll see how that one goes 👍🏻🤩 I think it may have been the fact I used resin on neat chipboard without sealing it with pva first 👍🏻 so the next time I’ll seal it first 😁

I have since discovered that the bobbling was a reaction between the silicone and the UV resin I used on the edges - apparently it doesn’t like uv resin but is fine with epoxy 🤓👍🏻

Hi the link to the window is in the description box below the video and the book nook was designed for 2mm Cricut chipboard so your basswood will need to be 2mm thick for the pieces to fit together exactly (the material key is in the pdf file titled ‘getting started’ in the svg bundle) 😁👍🏻

@@SpellboundMiniatures Thank you for the prompt reply, and also for reminding me about the thickness of material. I have only just bought my Cricut Maker and have a lot to learn.

@@unicorndesign_ if in doubt check the pdf in the bundle, watch the video or read the instructions (it’s usually one or the other) 😉 then always feel free to ask any questions in the Facebook group as we have lots of experienced members in there and you can always message us direct too - there’s usually an answer or a workaround - except for Design Space updates, those I have no control over 😂👍🏻

Hi it’s Cricut heavy chipboard - depending on where you live you can get Cricut supplies in hobby stores and on Amazon (or even direct from Cricut in the US 👍🏻) 😁

Also there’s a link to it in the description box below the video 😉 just click the down arrow/triangle thing 👍🏻

Thanks lovely 🤩👍🏻

Great to hear you’re safe and your house too lovely!! Awesome if it inspired you to try something too! 🤩 I look forward to seeing what you make 😍💖✨

Aww thanks lovely 😍👍🏻

Hi I think you can contact Heather via her Etsy store, it’s called Thicketworks 😁👍🏻

Our youngest son went to Uni and so we downsized, dropped the mortgage and took early retirement… of sorts 🤣 we really both love the sea so being able to live within walking distance of the coast and lots of sunny days to get out in it is the big upside to the downsize 😂😂😂

@@SpellboundMiniatures how amazing! Go you!

muchas gracias 🙏🏻🤩👍🏻

Thanks Min B and yes will definitely still be doing lots of mini work too 🤩👍🏻

Thank you Dianne 🙏🏻, it was great to get it all up and running again 😍💖

Thanks Karen 🤩 it’s compact but bijou 😂

😂😂😂 Elisabeeeeeeettthhhhh!! 🎉🎉🎉🤩🤩🤩👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻💖✨✨✨✨

@@SpellboundMiniatures my dear, now the longer version: It's sooo marvelous to see you back and: IN SPAIN! Have both the time of your life. My miniatures are sleeping at the moment, but maybe your return awakens them 😉 Your new studio resp. apartment looks just great. See you dear and take care 🍀🥰💚

@@ElisabethHeinemann well it’s nearly autumn 🎃👻😂 so I think that’s the ideal time to wake up those minis 🤩💖✨

​@@SpellboundMiniatures Oh yesssss.... I feel the cold autumns winds everywhere around me. Not 😂. But you're right. Halloween is coming and the best time to awaken all the miniature ghosts 💖✨

Hi Melissa if you’re using a Cricut you won’t be able to cut plywood, but a laser cutter should be ok for plywood - failing that two thinner layers sandwiched together to make up to 2mm could work but may not be as stiff as the Cricut brand 2mm chipboard - hopefully you can get some somewhere as it’s perfect for this project 👍🏻

Hi Jan, I’m the last person to do a tutorial on miniature sewing as I totally made it up as I went along 😂 I think I put some progress photos in my Facebook group when I did it but essentially it’s just two rectangles sewn together on three sides with a layer of wadding and kitchen foil in side (for the comforter) so it drapes nicely, and the pillow was again two rectangles sewn on three sides and filled with rice (but hear people say don’t use food items as they could attract bugs so maybe a synthetic weighty material would be better) then sew the top seam on both items to close it up 👍🏻

Hi Melissa, this svg is available from our website here👍🏻: www.spellboundminiatures.com/shop/p/coffee-table

Hi I’ve only used Cricut kraftboard and mount board so not too sure about bass board to be honest - it mostly depends on how clean it cuts (pulp/fibres can give you frayed edges) and also the material depth required - we try and use the Cricut brand products where possible to make sure you get consistent results 😁👍🏻
