Where a lot of others are laser printing parts and using expensive tools that no one can afford, it was very nice to see such nice work using the most basic tools. My respects to you! Beautiful.
They aren’t ‘expensive tool no one can afford’…they are tools for different people. Ei. Hobbyists and professionals. Professionals started as hobbyists too, but when you are skilled enough and you no longer find interest in overly repetitive tasks, you are being paid, and you are on a time crunch…you get professional tools.
spydertravel. what is expensive tools ,if this guy can't even buy a fret saw and a razor saw as well a pin vice or a hand drill. all this tools together are cheaper than his Swiss Army knife. btw nice cottage
@moumitamandal3235 um. If you doesn't get hit or dropped it will last a long time. Depending on how you place your stones can make it weaker to but I mean I've dropped one I made and only the a few of the top layer of stones came off. So it's decently strong. There is also kinds of that cement that is for outdoors and lasts longer also.
When I was just a little kiddo, I liked to make little fairy houses. But all I had were styrofoam cups, duct tape, markers, and scissors, but I did the best I could. It makes me smile to see something like this in the making.
Hrmmmm.... What decade were you a child? When I was in late elementary school (around aged 9), Legos already existed. Prior to that, there was Lincoln Logs that came in a tall, cylindrical canister. And Barbie with her inflatable furniture as well as Playskool's Little People that were made out of plastic heads and wooden bodies ... the latter with a tri-storied garage, an aeroport, construction site, and a house that opened up like a book... And other Playskool toys that were made from hybrid materials of plastic and wood. I had the ENTIRE Playskool family as well as two dollhouses, the aeroport/plane, garage, and a musical merry-go-round/ferris wheel.
@lushkitty734 Hummmmm..... In what DECADE were you a HUMAN WITH A HEART? Sounds like you had toyland handed to you on a silver platter. Well, a lot of us aren't that lucky! Some of us are born into poor families and have to appreciate what we have and make use of what we get. But of course you privileged few. Never think about that. Because your all to wrapped up in yourselves. It seems like greasymcpatty's childhood could've been like that and FLAUNTING YOUR RICHES LIKE YOUR DOING DOESN'T MAKE YOU ANY BETTER THEN HER/HIM EITHER! 😠
I used to build fairy houses for the Rolly Polly's everywhere I went out of leaves and sticks when I was little, did that from three to ten years of age. It was great to just sit under a tree and find cool rocks while looking for bugs to build a house for.
ok so the "diy crafts originals" in the upper left corner coming in & out is SO distracting...may I suggest a constant corner mark or nothing at all. This is a stunning little cottage you've made.
wonderfull i am inspired, but 40 years experience as a builder makes me want to say, why not stagger the roofing and ridge planks, same amount of timber, (lolly sticks) stronger, better looking, and more weatherproof ! also i think if/when i collect enough pebbles and lolly sticks, i would use either neat cement or 2:1 . need to find a nice base fot it first. anyhoo great post from you, love it.
so when you start making these on YOUR youtube channel YOU can make what YOU want, dont go into another persons shop and start telling how YOU would of made it. YOU should of kept the reply simple nice work thanks for putting your time into putting this on youtube plain and simple.
Lovely. I'd build it around a large cut-out hole in the floor, so I could add a light inside it. If you experiment with window shape, size and style, you might even give yourself room to put acat in the window. Flower boxes in the window? This is such a convincing base, so it's fun to think about the extras that might work with it. Maybe with some effort I could even find little geometric stain glass window-hangings to build in, allowing for some stain glass windows. alongside the normal ones.
If you ever try this project again, try covering the roof in dried or artificial moss rather than stained wood. It'll give it that "secret witches cottage in the woods" vibe

Beautiful little stone house. I made one with cedar shingles and white trim with a thatched roof, and real clay hearth, fireplace and chimney--which took the most time. I love the way all the colors came alive at the end when you applied the sealer. Can you put this outside in the garden? What are the products used for the grout and sealer?
Decades ago I build a wall using shale collected from the local creek bed. I still have that diorama, with a Luchs abandoned beside the gate to a French farm, for lack of gasoline. Natural materials are easy to collect. Last summer I collected two buckets of road fill, bought a set of sieves from Amazon and now have all the rocks, stones, talus and dirt I'll ever need. Collect large plastic jars and off you go.
04:52, tip for improving your windows: You need to add a bulkhead, because you want the head-bar to bear the load of whatever comes on top. Instead with your window the forces are punctually distributed on the narrower side linings or jamb and the whole window is basically kept up by the mullion or sash bars. The head should be 'the head' of a window to spread the top-load evenly. Your windows only cover side load. And no, I'm not a carpenter either. Your door hinges should also be inside the house, not outside, but i understand you did that for 'the looks'. Apart from that, nice built!
@@artandarchitecture6399 One should think that, but the stone lintel itself distributes the weight to the lower stones, that in turn need to distribute the force somewhere. The force is not distributed straight down, as the window opening offers an area of stress release.
Brilliant job! I wasn’t sure how this was going to work but it turned out great. For the roof you could also have used straw for thatch instead of tilling. The shape of the door is very fairytale!
Awesome build ! You should do an acid wash and dry brush everything and it would add that rustic look! Maybe throw some moss or snow on there ! Really cool build!
What patience 🤔. My aunt would make beautiful churches with steeples benches, cathedral windows the whole enchilada so to speak. TY for sharing beautiful outcome 😍.
Some greenery would look really nice and accent the stones very well. Dried moss can be used to make bushes, etc. Look up dollhouse landscaping for ideas.
I agree with the comments already made, a list of components would be helpful. The "cement" looks like readymade water based plaster/wood filler available in most DIY stores. I would have pre stained the wood prior to fitting to avoid getting it on the plaster and stone, unless you have a very steady hand! As for the stones, ideal if you live an area with hills and water courses, or the coast, otherwise look around DIY stores for decorative rocks, though many will be too flat if its gravel, or too big. Not sure about the door, why does it need to open? Nothing was done with the interior.
Nice. It would have been better if you had added just a touch of color to the grout to make it less stark white. You could also do a rock and grout light wash with a light gray color. Next time, or considerations for people doing their own. It would also be nice to know what products and materials you used, and some sources.
That's gorgeous!! Love it. You should make and sell these. Maybe led lights in the window. Or, a chimney and place an incense cone inside. Good luck. You are very skilled. 👍🍀
If you mix the pva glue wit acrilic paint you can add aged look on the mortar it sticks very hard when mixed with plaster. I have built a similar building using stone it was fishing cottage my father started but died before he finished it. I finished it for him.
Im not criticizing.... Its just interesting to see how our brains work. Im an artist and I see yhis and think,"This is so pretty!" And the tral life contractors are dissecting the angles/realism of the build. Im glad we all have such different talents and views.
What do you do with these items after you build them? You'd need a separate room with floor to ceiling shelves. They look like interesting ways to pass your free time if you enjoy assembling items like this but of what use are they after completion? Sell them perhaps?
Without a doubt, this is beautiful, "Old-School" modeling work! For one thing, nothing looks like stone BUT stone. That said, the finished model must be EXTREMELY heavy compared with a similar model built with XPS foam "stones" and "timbers."
A fret saw would be better for the curves and arches 👍 great video, thank you We have a mossy hollow in our native bush (forest) and it is idea setting to set up a fairy village.

For Those wanting to know what the paste is I think it's mosaic stone cement. 20$ for 2lbs in my area.
What is the spray at the end?
@@lzsuzsa1 Probably A sealant spray for grout.
Is it long time durable?

So wonderful to see someone actually use basic and simple crafting. With natural materials.well done
👍👍
Excellent cottage! Love the curve of the door and of the swoopy roof line❤
👍👍
This looks like a lot of fun. Children will have fun doing this project with a parent or even an adult just wanting to create it
👍👍
Great work, the only criticism is the gaps between the roof tiles make it look like basket work, on a real building rain would just pour in.
I'm a carpenter/builder...You did a better job than I thought it would be...:)...Sweet cottage!
👍👍
Not a roofer then.
@@MoontownMoss Did about 2000 square of 3 tab, dimensional, Slate, cedar perfections and hand splits...Does that count?
What I like about this video is the artist doesn't use a bunch of expensive "fancy" tools; just what is on hand.
All I can say is "WOW!!" -- so beautiful!! great craftsmanship and creativity!! Greetings from Texas
👍👍
Did you just use glue, or was it a mixture of different things like mod podge? if so, what did you use?
Perfect. Having created many projects myself, I appreciate the work it took to create this cottage.
👍👍
You're an inspiration! Now I want to purchase the dollar pebbles and create a quarter, or half scale castle. This is Awesomeness!

You could easily make the windows with alcohol inks on clear plastic bottle pieces or even with cling wrap,
👍👍
Absolutely beautiful! Sure wish I knew what you used for mortar.
Same here!
Yeah, me too
👍👍
Same!
PVA glue and water until it's about a little thinner then pudding but not so watery as milk
So much love is evident in your creation; it is truly beautiful.

i so need to try one of these it looks amazing such a good project what was the paste you used for mortar?
thags what i asked myself too. i guess with some research we can find out. must be for crafting, some paste
Mosaic cement.
That is a cute and well built little dwelling.
I thought it looked really cool and then you sprayed it...really made it pop. Well done so cool. 🙂💯
👍👍
What did you use for the mortar?
forget getting an answer,,, people like this only respond to compliments.
Mosaic Stone cement

Do you have pictures?
I wish this video had been available back when I was in 7th grade and had to build a 16th century cottage for a school project.
What a lovely cottage. Like others pointed out the clear coat made it pop. Thank you. NOW make a round age - Iron Age Great Britain I think it is.
Simply gorgeous!! Do you sell these afterwards?
The big spaces between the shingles broke my heart. Lovely idea though.
You’re so very gifted and talented! Absolutely amazingly gorgeous ❤
Thank you for sharing!

This would look really cool lit up maybe even a Christmas version with a bit of snow etc
Some greenery would look really nice and accent the stones very well. Dried moss can be used to make bushes, etc. Look up dollhouse landscaping for ideas.
Wow ! My first time seeing something like this and I Love it, it's 100% beautiful.😁♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏
Beautiful 😍 and stonework looks much easier when you can pick them up with two fingers.
This is so beautiful!! You are truly talented. 😍
Amazing job👏🏼
I'd color the mortar grey before building & maybe a small portal window above the 🚪
Just a suggestion 😁
A quick ink wash could make quick work of the mortar color.
and a little chimney :)

With the door open, that would make a great birdhouse. Very cool. Great job.
Glorious, inspiring, Yes, may I ask what the white binding material is for the rocks, enjoyed immensly
This is so cute, little furniture would be awesome.
