Miter Shears- this pair is highly rated and has replaceable blades

Heat gun- I use mine to quickly dry paint, soften the glue to dismantle furniture and quickly cure polymer clay without an oven. Gets a lot hotter than a hair dryer.

Craft heat gun that doesn't get as hot as mine

Dimensional Magic from Mod Podge- This is what I used on the trash plastic "glass" panels

"You'll get your rent when you fix this damn door!" Tobey Maguire. Spider-Man
I scratch built the infamous door of Spider-Man's apartment using basswood, trash plastic, matboard, a paperclip, and a couple beads. This door will be part of the completed Spider-Man apartment diorama I'll release in a separate video.
I have lots of projects planned like abandoned miniatures, Dollar Store furniture makeovers, room boxes, dioramas and Dollhouse Miniature decor, furniture and accessories in multiple scales. I also have a large Harry Potter build planned for 1" scale.

What an insanely good channel, especially for miniaturists who don't, can't or won't just order what they want online. In some ways it's certainly nice to, but the thrill of making it yourself is lost. Thank you so much for all your hard work in making, filming, editing, uploading and all that ❤
Thank you very much! I really enjoy making things from scratch from accessible materials. It's a lot of fun seeing something come from nothing.
Filming, editing and adding voiceover (which most of my videos have, just not this one and a couple others) takes SO much time and work. Thank you for appreciating it.
Absolutely incredible talent and instruction from readily available materials.
Wow, thank you! That's my goal
The detail level here was *chef's kiss*!! Amazing!😮💖
Thank you so much! I'm enjoying Beetlegust immensely.
Holy crap. Freaking amazing!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!
Clever idea about using the plastic lids for the brass hardware on the door, going to have to try that one. I like that. Have a great day
Glad it was helpful!
I just rewatched this. It’s amazing. The chain lock!!!
Thank you so much ☺️ you'll see more of this project soon 😏
Every time you think she’s done, the details keep getting better. Love the modge podge textured glass. Brilliant.
Thanks so much 😊 I tested the technique on scrap trash plastic before adding it to the door.
This beats all I've ever seen! Lol, you are amazing, the slide lock is too cute.
I appreciate that! Thank you 😊
Your work is just magical.
Thank you so much 💓
I would love it if you would talk so you could explain the process. Sometimes it would be nice to know if it a process that needs to be decorative etc. your work is beautiful
99% of my videos have voiceover. I'll redo this one with voiceover so people can replicate it more easily.
The door lock is so creative, from plastic, I love the door, so realistic, with every little detail, you are an artist, bravo
Thank you so much :) I saw a video of someone making miniatures using plastic sheets you can buy. I assumed an oatmeal lid would work just as well and it did.
This door is just marvellous!
Thank you 😊
That rust stuff looks neat and is such a wildly specific product. But fyi for anyone that can't afford the bottle of rust, it looks similar on camera at least, to using brown alcohol inks. Similarly, teal alcohol inks make a good faux patina.
That's a great suggestion! Thank you. Dirty Down Rust is quite expensive.
Simply wonderful
Thanks a lot 😁
You manage to teach really well without saying a word! Incredible detail and particularly live the super close up shots to show exactly how you're doing it. Bravo
Thank you! Only a few of my videos don't have voiceover. It makes it a lot easier for me. Voiceover is the worst part, IMHO.
@@queencityminis well you can be reassured that your teaching still gets across without, so if you feel like time off from doing that then I'd say you can
Loved it!!! I can watch these over and over again and never get bored!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
Incredible detail. 💯👍
Glad you think so!
thanks for the sharing. ☕👋
My pleasure 😊
Quite masterful. What a surprise. guess I`ll subscribe. Thank you so much for modeling your abilities for all of us.
Welcome! Thanks for subscribing
Just WOW!
Thank you! Id love to get back to this Spider-Man diorama
WOW. Absolutely amazing!
Thank you very much!
You are my miniature hero‼️ I know you can make anything❗️
That’s what I want to make & not buy. But I see some items just need to be bought. Like $🌲’s dollhouse furniture. I took your advice on lengthening the legs on their table. I did ok.
Thanks‼️👻🎃🩵🕊️
Awesome 😎 Keep making and having fun!
Wow! Just wow!
Thank you so much!
Your attention to detail is amazing, the door glass being frosted was clever. All the little details you added to the door made it look so real! Nice job! Well done!
Thank you! I tested the frosted glass technique on scrap plastic but then I forgot a step. In my test piece, I sanded the plastic to scuff them up. It didn't change the end result so I lucked out on that one.
Excellent !!!! ❤"You'll get ur rent when u fix this damn door". (hate landlords, evil)
I used to hate landlords too, then I learned homes are unaffordable bc of banks and their loans for properties. Makes perfect sense. Landlords are scapegoats.
@@queencityminisagreed! It also depends on whether they are individual landlords, or big faceless corporations. Your mom and pop types are usually just trying to get by themselves. Big corporations can be evil because there is no individual accountability, often, and no empathy for the individual renters. I was forced to rent rooms in my house before I was later forced to sell it, so I’ve been on both sides of the rental equation. I have great empathy and appreciation for my landlord in our current rented condo, and all that he has to do dealing with the HOA. Being the landlord trying to keep paying my mortgage with not enough income was extremely stressful.
This door is AMAZING. Your attention to detail is just *chefs kiss*! I have been obsessively watching your videos, with an occasional foray to other channels. I keep coming back here because your creativity is off the charts, and your results are truly miniature works of art. I am not joking when I say they would deserve to be in a museum. Thanks for this wonderful distraction from some serious familial health stress!
Thank you so much for a lot of great videos. I've used a few of your tips and techniques and look forward to using many more in the future. I appreciate all your hard work, on camera and off.
You are so welcome! Thank you for your thoughtful comment.
Omg the tiny little hardware you made 😮
Blew my mind 🤯
Thank you!
Amazing detail.
Glad you think so 😊
I LOVE YOU and YOUR VIDEOS WE Are So MUCH ALIKE!! I LOVE the DOOR and Definitely YES on the Hardware and locks!!!
Right back at you! Thank you so much 😊 I love how you made kitchen knives out of trash plastic. It's such a versatile material.
Excellent! Wonderful detailing.
Thank you very much!
Wow.....such a talented lady! Love it. 🇬🇧💕
Thank you so much ☺️
wow.. just wow... you are soo talented!! amazing work.
Thank you very much :)
Outstanding!
Glad you like it!
Love the modpodge effect you did on the windows
Thank you so much! I love when an idea works so well.
Bloody hell that's amazing
Thank you :) I really love how this door turned out. I also love the video style. Skipping the voiceover is a guilty pleasure.
@@queencityminis i enjoy your guilty pleasure too 😉
Excellent to perfection. I only wish I could do what she does. I was laughing with myself the other day trying to do the things the way she does, on my own. I know I'm new at this & practice makes perfect, but I have a long way to go. Lol
You can do it! Keep at it. Look how far Little Gretchen's Workshop has come. She shows some of her old minis sometimes.
This was great!
Thank you :)
Wow!
Thank you :)
O m g. This is amazing
Thank you 😊
Brilliant!!!
Glad you think so 🤗
So cool! How creative!
Thank you! 😊
Wow! 👍
Thank you :)
wow
Amazing details!
Thank you :)
Beautifully done! You've reminded me to save containers to make windows!
Yes! Unfortunately, there's tons of trash plastic available. I have a nice little stash. I'll have to make a greenhouse or something to try to use it up.
This is genius! The perfect door build. I'm saving this for future reference.... 👍
Also really love that you put links to the music you use. Some of these tracks are beautiful ❤
Glad it was helpful! I'm happy you enjoyed it :)
I was so thrilled to see this video - I'm custom building a dollhouse from some architectural plans I found on the net, so everything has been from scratch, and I really didn't want to pay $15 per door or window (and since it's somewhat of an observation tower/house, we're talking ~35 windows and 6 doora). Seeing how you made this door has saved me soooo much money!! And I have the deepest respect for popsicle sticks now - and those 1000 packs at Michael's are looking like a serious bargain!
That's awesome! If you have a laser cutter or Cricut machine, you could make a file and have a machine do all the cutting. Some libraries have machines you can use.
That is a work of art. SO many details, I love the details! You have such creative ways of making humble items look like the real deal and your mad blade skills are mind blowing. I always look forward to your next upload :)
Thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciate that.
Thank you for this. I made a door about a year ago and had I seen this first, it would have made my project look more polished. Thank you.
You're very welcome!
I love the way you did this I've saved it hope u don't mind x
Thank you! I save videos I want to watch again in playlists.
@@queencityminis its handy saves me trying to rem everything I like I'm doing a shop/house combi then I have a larger house to do then a tudor house so I will be busy for god knows how long lol x
W o w 😮 -pretty awesome ❤💯
Thanks!
God!
That is so good❤
Thank you 😊
Amazing!!
Thank you :)
Wow!!
Thank you :)
Brilliant🥰
Thank you :)
O my goodness!! So much tiny details. That's beautiful. Do you have a six inch spider man figure?
No, I don't :/
@@queencityminis the star Wars figures I used to get were just under 4 inches tall, but now they have six inch tall action figures. Posable too. I just adore how the miniature dollhouse community, the model railroad community, and the people making dioramas for their action figures all overlap. Aging wood, making stones, bricks, fire pits, resin water, all in common. And terrain, foliage, trees. Oh and the role playing games like the dungeon and dragon stuff. They're in there too. There's a lot of cool Alien and Predator dioramas for that spaceship vibe or jungle look. They use fish tank grates to make the floors of spaceships with lights underneath. It's perfect.
That door is so realistic looking! I have to make one for a dollhouse I just acquired because it has no doors on the front or the side entrance, either. Can't wait to make one! Thank you, Shyra!
Have fun!
@@queencityminis 😁
Sensacional 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you :)
Not sure how I missed this video!..the level of detail is on point with this door!🙌🏾
Thank you :) I am so happy with how it turned out, especially the lock.
Cool
Thank you 😊
Trabalho lindo amei
Thank you!
I just came across your website. Wow, I'm really impressed with all the tiny detail you added to the door! I've always loved small items but I'm just getting into making minis. I don't know if I'd ever come close to being able to make a door like that. I've been told it takes practice but... I guess they have to pay the rent now!
Hahaha YES. Now the rent is due. Thank you 😊
totally enthralled with the door hardware!
Thank you! I'm so happy with how it turned out. I knew I was saving an oatmeal lid for something 😆
Truly remarkable. In addition to all the complex hardware, I especially love how you did the glass in the door panels. So true to life! 😍Brilliant!
Thanks so much! Trash plastic never looked so good 😆
Great timing to stumble across this particular tutorial, I'm going to have to watch and rewatch this plenty of times when I try to make a front door for my mouse house cottage soon. (especially when you worked on the door frame!). Wonderful attention to detail Shyra, always inspirational!
Thank you so much! A mouse house cottage sounds incredibly adorable.
You are incredibly talented and obviously in love with details. This door is just brilliant 👌🏼
Thank you! I appreciate that 😌
OMy what beautiful detail, such patience, such dedication to a project. I'm in awe. Lovely just lovely.
Thank you so much 😊
Absolutely beautiful & inspiring. Love every realistic detail in your door. I learned a lot from you by just watching your videos. Thank you. 🥰
I'm so glad! Thank you
Absolutely brilliant!!!!!!!
I mean beyond brilliant! But I did miss your voice....
Thank you! I do voiceover for most of my videos, but I really enjoyed skipping it for this one. It's more just for entertainment than a tutorial, although you can still learn by watching it. Doing the voiceover takes the most time of the editing process.
I love the details of this door! What a great start to an amazing project!
Thank you :) I've been wanting to make this for a while.
Very cool, so realistic!
Thank you so much!
Love it ! Well done !!
Thank you 😊
Beautiful work and with so many wonderful tips! Well done!
Thank you so much :)
Oh my goodness! That is remarkable work!
Thank you so much!
Beautiful! Thank you!!!
Thank you very much :)
Absolutely fascinating,but where’s the letterbox ?
I'm all about the details, but I copied a specific door for this build, so no letterbox. The door is inside an apartment building. I assume the mailboxes are downstairs.
This is amazing Shyra! Really well done. I’m definitely subscribing!
Thank you so much :) I really appreciate that.
Wow, very nicely done. You do an awesome job on all your pieces. 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Thank you :) Making miniatures is so much fun. Editing the videos drives me a little nuts but it's worth it to share.
😱 Increíble todos los detalles,muy buenas tomas de camara,y la musica es tan linda,gracias por tomarte el tiempo de enseñarnos.
Muchas gracias ❤️
1k👍 do I make a wish or something?😂
I did embossing in grade school but never thought to apply it to diorama building. I'm getting all sorts of ideas now🍻🇨🇦
Yes, make a wish! Thank you
The idea to emboss some foil just popped into my mind. I love the effect. Have fun crafting!
Oh my! This is amazing ❤
Thank you! I've been working on expanding this for months. I've got a whole bunch filmed.
Your details are amazing! Well I’ll definitely keep this for future doors on my mini house. I used your cig video to make cigars and they came out so cute!
That's awesome! I didn't even think of making cigars. I love that. Ara of Bentley House Minis followed my tutorial, too! She made cigarettes for her Smoking Man for her Beetlejuice dollhouse.
@@queencityminis I’m doing an Addams house too. So the cigars are for Gomez. I remember your cig video. I just started minis a couple of months ago and tried it out. I used tooth picks and paper but kept your technique to make cigars. Her smoking man came out so cute!
Such a great job!! I could never do that! But love miniature everything!💜💜💜
Thank you so much :) I love miniatures ❣️
Girl! You got skills! Your attention to details is amazing! From the lock, chain lock, peep hole, frame, glass windows, door knob, molding, painting, etc etc is freaking awesome! What is the little knob thingy between the lock and chain lock supposed to be? I love mini doors. Fantastic job!!!
Thank you!
I actually don't know what that is but it's on the door I was copying (Spider-Man's apartment door).
@@queencityminis oh ha! I’ll have to research it.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you :)
Amazing work! Great attention to details! 🙌
May I ask what are you using for the door knob? Thanks!
Thank you! The door knob is a miniature doorknob I got in a box of random miniature hardware from eBay. I don't know where it came from originally.
Another work of art! Did you get the doorknobs from EnT?
Thank you! I got the doorknob in a random box of minis, just loose. Idk where it's from. I wish I had made it from scratch though since everything else is made from scratch. It wouldn't be hard to replicate with some beads.
Очень красиво 😍 рада что нашла ваш канал ! Скажите пожалуйста что вы используете для стены ?
Thank you! The wall is made from foam core. I got it at the dollar store.
Buenas tardes,hace poco encontré tu canal muy lindos sus trabajos ,me gustaría que pudieras traducir lo que vas haciendo que medidas llevan ,muchas gracias por compartir ,yo no entiendo eso de medidas en escalas gracias
This door is in 1:12 dollhouse scale. 1 inch equals 1 foot. All the measurements are in inches. Thank you!
@@queencityminis hracias
What are those medieval scissors you are using? 😂
Miter shears 😆
I'm not sure if you've answered it else where but when you were cutting the wood pieces, what is the tool that you were using?
On another note, you are incredibly talented :)
Thank you! They're called miter shears. They're very useful. I wish I had gotten a pair with replaceable blades instead.
well i mean..... she made a new damn door????? 😅
You're damn right
@@queencityminis yo wassup
Oh
Alguém sabe me dizer como se chama esse estilete que ele está usando
I used a speed square and miter shears.

I hate when videos don’t have talking
Most of my videos have talking but I took a different approach for this video. Maybe you'll enjoy this one more. czcams.com/video/uYm5I3AoONo/video.html
Wow!!!
Thank you!
