I've been busy adding lots of lovely accessories to the kitchen and I hope this video will give you some ideas and inspiration for your own miniature scene, as well as some displaying techniques. I also show you how to make some washing-up brushes and a tea canister cabinet.
If you'd like to have a go at making the dish drainer, you'll find the tutorial in my book, Making Dolls House Miniatures in 1/12th Scale, which is available from Amazon - along with my other 4 books of tutorials - just search for Julie Warren.
I really hope you enjoy this video, until next time, Happy Miniaturing!
Take care and stay safe,
Julie, xx
The creativity and vision of Di Vinci, the solution finding of Einstein, the execution of Michelangelo, and the patience of Monica of Hippo. Of course, none of those qualities are worth a darn without the enthusiasm of a ten year old disguised as an adult. Kudos to you once again, and thank you for the fine accompaniment to my morning cup!
Thank you George, that's high praise indeed! :)
You are so right, George!
She's also drop dead gorgeous
🎉lol well all I know is she's amazing and clever love love love her 😊❤🎉
I have always loved your attention to detail Julie! I recently had someone ask me about refurbishing a dollhouse and I said I know exactly where to send you!! To the Dolls House Diaries ;) Thank you for sharing all your wonderful tips and tricks!
You and Julie are my FAVORITES!
Ara your channel and this channel are my go to for inspiration, you and Julie are sooo talented.
Oh, bless you, Ara, that's very kind. Thank you, too, for sharing all that you do. :)
I find it funny that we tend not to create perfect dream homes in miniatures, but places that suit idea of cozy and warm. This kitchen is so lovely and has the old-fashion aesthetic I love. Even though I avoid clutter, I like the look in miniature b/c it seems to be a place where good food is prepared daily.
I agree; in my real home, I like everything to be hidden away, but in miniature - the more the better! I think it's a lot more fun to create, too! :)
I was just thinking that. Really, why hide the goodies away ? !. I used to make tiny boxes of loose matches, and I soon realized all my friends would ask me to open it up so they could see them. Thanks , just found you !.🤗
Your a very clever lady wl done❤ looks awesome
The nicest dollhouse island I have seen!
This is wonderful! I am working on my own dollhouse and this is beautiful and so helpful, thank you so much 💗💜
Julie, your kitchen is PERFECT ! Thanks for sharing your talent
Thank you so much.
That corner looks so awesome Julie!🥰...I truly love all of the thought you put into everything you make..the details are unmatched!
Thank you so much!
Like real kitchen!
So much details! Nice!
Thanks so much! 😊
Now that I have FINALLY found a doll worth of dollhouse items you inspire to make, I will have to go back and view all of your wonderful videos! :D
Thank you so much. Have fun! :)
I am extremely happy that this video popped up in my feed so very early this morning, it's literally only 6AM and I'm awake because my husband just left for work. I suffer with severe insomnia as a result of dealing with multiple life threatening health issues, multiple traumatic events and experiences and hospitalizations that left my husband, daughter and I with severe PTSD and other things that combined resulted in my insomnia as once I was finally able to go home and I was still on a very strict schedule for my medications I would stay up much later than my husband and daughter so not to disturb their sleep and schedules for work and school since I could get some sleep after they had left the house each morning if I was lucky. The island you created looks a lot like the antique piece of furniture that we use as an island.
I hope you are keeping well and that your family are coping too. Sending positive thoughts your way! xx
Julie I’m from Dallas Texas and your voice and accent is so wonderful! Thank you for your tutorials. They are so informative and fun. I’m so happy I found your channel 💜💜💜
Thank you so much Sara. I'm glad you found me, too! :)
Your videos are such an inspiration, your kitchen is amazing!!! Thanks for lifting our spirits during these strange times.
Thank you so much, Beth.
Thank you Julie , love to see your doll house , the beautiful of doll houses is , our dreams , our inspiration , yours is romance .... I have seen much on youtube , but yours is beautiful ...... thanks again 🏡🥇
Thank you so much!
i dont have to tell you, you already know you are a remarkable artist in your own right. i have tried soulfully to make a doll's house quite the few times in my time, but failed each time, you are so precise and accurate in your scales that it is unbelievable. i seen finished products before but never could see the artist in action. thank you for wanting to share your work, and maybe if the galaxy willing, i could get a dolls house together and me film it?? until then i will watch your videos with you creating such great work!!
Thank you so much. 🙏😊 and the best of luck with your own dolls house.
This was awesome! Just love your attention to detail. The more I watch, the more inspiration I get for the accessorizing my dolls house. I can see me investing in one of your books.
Thank you so much Natasha, I'm glad you're feeling inspired. If you're wanting to make accessories, take a look at my book, Making Dolls House Miniatures in 1/12th scale, which includes over 50 tutorials for miniatures! :)
I love your How-to's and the delightful results you achieved. Historically, I'm not very good when working with wood, but I DO like the way your washing up brushes turned out and will have to give them and the potato scrubber a try since they're totally Adorable!
Thank you, Elizabeth. I hope you'll have fun making the brushes. :)
love your work Julie, I spend hours watching your videos, again thank you so much.
You are so welcome!
I absolutely love your creations.
Thank you so much!
That was amazing, thank you. Tomorrow I am going to get myself a dolls house and follow your videos. Those are beautiful things you made, can’t wait to get started.
That's great Suzie! I do hope you found your perfect dollhouse! xx
What a wonderful video. I'm brand new to your channel and have found it to be so enchanting. I love that you tell us not only mm but also inches, so helpful. Thank you
Thank you so much Nancy. I'm very happy to supply both sets of measurements, as I know it helps a lot of people. I'm so glad you're enjoying the channel. :)
Good job!!! Looks great! You are so patient!
Thank you, Delores.
You are so very talented! You should open up a small store! You would definitely make good money especially on how huge mini stuff has gotten in the last couple years!
Thank you 🙏. I’ve been doing this for 20 years now and started out selling furniture and miniatures online and at shows, but since publishing my first book in 2015, my business model has changed to teaching rather than selling. I’m now working on my sixth book and have a successful Patreon channel.
So creative! Thank you for sharing your talents. Two thumbs up, subscribed and very much loved.
Thank you for subscribing and a very warm welcome to the channel.
Wow, great!!
All goods is real and seems to be usable!💗
Thank you.
This is a lovely selection of little projects. I'm just at the stage of filling my little kitchen with furniture and accessories, so plenty of inspiration. I made a sink unit with a drawer and then asked my Twitter followers what I should put in the drawer, and now I have a massive list of odds and ends to work through, which will spill into drawers in the table and dresser! Things like that are good for when you don't feel like concentrating on a bigger project like a piece of furniture. I'll be making a washing up brush too now!
Thank you so much. I'm glad you got a few ideas for your own kitchen. I love making furniutre, but do enjoy geting stuck into some detailed miniatures!
Loved all your Tutorials . Dollhouses My Big time Hobbie , specially nowadays . Thank u for all ur Great Ideas . 😊 .
Thanks so much 😊
So pleased your back. Loved it
Thank you so much, Zoe.
On the side of the sink maybe a wooden towel rail rather than a hook. Everything is so adorable, I love those brushes.
Thank you, that's a good idea.
@@JulieWarren I made the scrubbing brushes for my house last week - I now have 4 little brushes and 1 very bald paintbrush! I feel quite sorry for it 😶
@@ChrisAndCats Satisfaction in the fact it did not "die" in vain. Lol!
@@donnajohnson3334 there is that! Poor bald baby - it's little stubby self is still sitting here looking at me....😕
I haven’t done on this before, but making the brushes. It seems to me it would be a lot easier if you glued the little brush the base body of it to the top of the little paintbrush head and waited till it dries so all the bristles would stay in their uniform shape, and then you can snip it away from the paintbrush and then you know you have something to hold it by if you’re holding the paintbrush stick until it just driesand you have a couple you know you can use it a couple times, but you have more control over the bristles. Hanging onto your little brush base.
You can make the glass jar lid with UV resin. You would first make a mold of course.
my heaven, god bless your hands
Fabulous kitchen, just found you and love it 😊
Thank you so much, I'm glad you found me! :)
I love your little creations! I would use an Emory board (Nail file) to sand the little pieces of wood, since it's easier to hold.
That's a great tip, thanks.
Love those little dish brushes you made!! I think I'll have a go at some myself!
They are fun to make, too.
Oh my gosh! Better than my real kitchen 😆 so good!
Thank you so much.
you're my fav miniature maker
Thank you, that's lovely to hear. :)
Are we going to see you do the whole house julie? I would love to see lots more of your work. I have two doll houses that I need inspiration for. I'm loving your videos. They are my guilty pleasure snuggled up at night...creating a whole other world aside from this crazy one we are in right now!
Yes, I shall be sharing tutorials for the entire house. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. I think we all need to escape from what's going on, just for a little while each day.
Such a lovely diary, I watched twice!
Thank you so much.
Great video! I was just wondering how to make a scrub brush. Your kitchen is looking wonderful! Thank you!
Thank you, Karen, I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
I have only just discovered your videos and are totally loving it. It’s been a very long dream of mine to one day make a dolls house but at 51 it’s still sadly only a dream. 😢
I hope my videos will inspire you to get started! :)
Julie Warren I am thinking about doing the shed and setting it up as either my sewing room or a little craft shop.
I'm 60 soon and hopeful to get back into it...my trifocals and I .LOL !!!
Amazing! I’m so glad I found your channel :)
Thank you so much and a very warm welcome.
Very nice!
Thank you!
I am waiting to see you make a fridge. I want to follow. lol
I am not having a fridge in my kitchen, but you'll find a tutorial in my book, Creating Dolls House Kitchens in 1/12th Scale, available from Amazon.
my dear, perhaps tie up the bristles into a tight bundle before you cut them from the brush, then glue them down while bundled all together, and when the glue dries, cut the string, or try wrapping them with strip of paper and a bit of tape.
Thank you for the tip. :)
I wish I lived by you to learn-will check out classes/workshops in the US-by the way I have been to London 2 times recently before COVID (hate 😡😡that word )LOVE it had a blast! So enjoy your video and your meticulous work-fun to watch!!!!
Thank you, Nancy, but I only do tutorials here on CZcams and over on Patreon, which you can learn from anywhere in the world! I'm glad you're enjoying them.
You can tie a thread to tie the brush before cutting the bristles and then stick it, once it dries, you will untie it and cut it, it is perfect
Thanks for the tip.
I love this channel!
Thank you so much. :)
Lovely, again. When you showed the piece with the crockery in it, I was thinking, “Look, she’s made the worlds smallest drawers!” But chuckled when I saw they were faux drawers. I know how you love your tiny fiddlly bits. 😜
I call them 'cheat' drawers! :)
Check out Amy on yt. Her mini house has all working drawers etc. Both are great.
Great video!!
Thank you so much.
Love this!😍
Thank you! :)
Just found your channel well impressed just subscribed will be watching all your vlogs
Thank you so much Iris and a very warm welcome.
If I could give this video two likes I would!
Thanks Cassandra, that's very kind.
Excelente y muy bello todo lo que haces yulie saludos
Thank you, Emma.
These are great videos!
Thank you so much.
@@JulieWarren Look. 4 months later and I am watching this again. It's STILL an awesome video
A good tip will be to tie together the bristles with a tiny wire and easy to place and cutting later. I love your work.
Thanks, that's a great tip.
Awesome
Thank you.
Just found your channel. This is really cute. Did subscribe and turned on notifications Hi From Lutz, Florida USA
Thank you so much, that's appreciated.
For the "washing up" brushes, what if you wrapped the bristles in masking tape before cutting them off the brush? Then you have a nice tidy cylinder to glue onto the little brush head, and then remove the tape when the glue is dry.
I had a similar thought except using a mini rubber band. There are mini ones for baby hair... that way the adhesive on the masking tape wouldn't pull off the bristles at removal.
Great idea!
Another good tip, thanks.
I separate and hold the bristles I want to use, dab glue on them while they're bunched, stick the brush to the glued hairs and then , when its dry simply cut the bristles
Wrap with thread then unwind when glued and dried.
See if you can find the tiny round metal files on line, they are fantastic for sanding this type of thing.
Thank you.
I dont know how I managed to miss this but all the brushes came at exactly the right moment as I just made a miniature saddle and saddle stand that has the box bit below for the grooming kit etc. Now I can fill it up. I have some tiny hoof picks that I made from paper clips but brushes have always defeated me....I cant wait to make them! I found a little jam jar mould on AliExpress its for 3 jars and I use UV resin for them. Theyre solid and cant be filled but there are others that can be. With my ones I just colour the resin to make marmalade or jam or whatever and paint the lids which look like standard jam jar lids. Theyre great as shelf/cupboard fillers and only take minutes with one of the little UV torches. I will use the wire trick with these as they could be made to look like mason jars if left clear too.
Your little shelves and counter tops look amazing now you have dressed them...its wonderful!
I'm glad you found the brush tutorial helpful. It can get a bit messy, but I think they look really good. I've seen the little jars and have made pickled onions and things in the past. I plan to have a go at jams and marmalades for my kitchen. Your saddle and saddle stand sounds interesting...:)
I WAS IN A DOLLAR TREE STORE, and I spied tiny glass bottles full of dry nail glitter sized hearts, flowers, etc. Now I am viewing them as perfect canning jars. Maybe make poly clay lids, hmmm ?!.
I love it
Thank you Rebekah. :)
Very nice
Thank you.
❤ omg. U are amazing ❤
Класс!!! Все такое лилипуточное!!!
Thank you so much.
Love your tutorials your so talented x
Thanks so much 😊
@@JulieWarren Thanks so much. Just lost my Mum...am delighted to find some kindred spirits who tinker as I do. Lovely miniatures !.
Tudo Maravilhoso🥰❤
Thank you.
20:30 I would have put a little glue on the brush and waited for it to dry before cutting it. I don't know if I explained myself well but I think it would be better and simpler.
It wouldn't have made much difference to the end result, but I see what you mean. Things are always different when you're working around a camera!
@@JulieWarren Excuse my arrogance. I'm just an apprentice to a great teacher. Thank you for showing us your knowledge.
Nossa é perfeito.👏👏👍👍❤❤
Muito obrigado. :)
Hola. Me gustaría saber si en algúno de tus vídeos muestras las medidas de una casa para muñecas donde se puedan lucir los muebles??? Me fascina todo lo que haces, felicitaciones❗🎉
Чудесно!!!😍😍😍и у ,Вас такой приятный голос.
Большое спасибо
Hi, I really love your tutorials❤ your farmhouse kitchen is lovely.. and your crochet toturiols.. love them❤ I am just started with miniatures my self. Vintage/farmlook is what i want to go for. And your kitchen is my inspiration😊I am wondering, is this kitchen units in your kitchen book, and how big is the kitchen in this tutorial?
💕💕
Thank you.
I love the way your kitchen is looking, and the shine on your counter tops is lovely, The little bowl looks great with the fruit in. One thing I noticed is that you have not replaced the doors to each room why is that if I may ask ? I have to buy new doors for my house and fit them also, But I have taken the inside door surrounds off since some were damaged and I really don't know what to use to make more, Please could you suggest something for me ? This is my first ever dolls house and I so desperately want to make it perfect. Thank you so much Julie,
Stay safe and have a lovely weekend, xx
Thank you so much. I shall be making the doors and door surrounds once the rooms are done, so I can make and fit them all at the same time.
the Ivory hutch cabinet or china cabinet can be in the dinning room
Yes, it could also be used in the dining room.
You deserve more likes❤️.
Thank you, that's very kind.
@@JulieWarren so you are .
Perhaps you could put dough ready to be rolled out on the baking table?
That's a good idea. I was thinking about a box of cupcake cases! :)
I've been also watching Stan Greg build his houses. In every room, there is something spilled or dropped as that's how most people live. Everyone has such great talent.
I have a mad impulse to applaud when you showed the shelve in place! I love your videos! Thank you for sharing them! I recently received a Dremel, do you ever use one?
Thank you so much, Joni. I do have a Dremel, but hardly ever use it. I must have a play with it and find out what it can do! I shall share my progress here on CZcams. :)
The soap container looks like just cut a bit of hot glue stick and put a bead on top and some wire in that. That would totally work wouldn’t it.
That would absolutely work. That's what making miniatures is all about - looking at something and seeing it made from different bits and bobs! :)
Your kitchen cabinets are beautiful. Did you make those?
Yes, I make all the furniture. :)
Where did you get that ruler. I love the conversations on the back, since I grew up in a non metric zone
I actually sell them in my Etsy shop...www.etsy.com/uk/shop/bitsandpiecesbyjulie
Hello Julie,
I am a big fan of you and your work. What particularly impresses me is how exactly you work. My question now is what you use to cut / saw the wooden parts. Can you recommend me something there. I come from Switzerland, but I have an idea what they use.
I'm really looking forward to many more contributions from you.
Kind regards
Brigitte
Hi Brigitte, have a look at my episode, Working with Wood, where you'll find loads of hints and tips about cutting wood.
@@JulieWarren Super thank you. I will do that :-)
I have converted one of my shelf to a miniature kitchen. From India tried with chipboard that I had with me,not perfect but enjoyed every bit.Thank you.yet to add accessories.Where can I share pics
That sounds really great. You can share photos in my Facebook group, Little Bits & Pieces by You - head to my Facebook page and you can request to join the group from there: facebook.com/littlebitsandpiecesbyjulie :)
For that tiny soap bottle you could have used a hot glue strip and painted it .
That's a great idea, thanks.
I don't think I've seen a video with your kitchen fully done. Do you have a refrigerator in there?
The kitchen isn't finished yet, but I won't be having a refrigerator. My story is it's built into one of the cupboards with a freezer in a shed out the back! :)
What type of paint do you use? My daughter and I are updating my childhood dollhouse. Everything is stained or painted but she wants a more modern look. I've worked on recovering furniture. Next up are white kitchen cabinets.
I use a normal household emulsion. The little sample pots you can buy are ideal!
I have been trying to make a dish rack like the 1 u have in your kitchen,but am struggling😔
I would love you to do a tutorial?🤔...🥰
There is a tutorial for the dish rack in my book, Making Dolls House Miniatures in 1/12th Scale. :)
Just wondering how the shelves were attached to the wall...
I actually just glued them into place. :)
Hi Julie Will you be showing how you use photoshop to make miniatures? Thank you! Sue
Yes, that's right. It's a lot of fun.
Your thinks are so cute and where did you get the mesh?
Thanks Pat. You can buy the mesh from places like Ebay or Amazon. I think it's called sculptures mesh. :)
Just found your tutorials and am loving them. How is your house wired.
Thank you, Marcia. The house is fitted with copper tape, I got it fully built with the tape already in place.
I’m not sure why, but when you accidentally dropped a potato next to the eggs, and your comment struck me funny. I suppose it’s because it’s something that almost any miniaturist might have happened to them.
I’m finding this fascinating - thank you! How do you cut the sheet wood is it possible to use a craft knife on it? (As in when you cut the initial square shape)
Thank you, Sarah. Have a look at my video, Working with Wood - you'll find lots of great tips for cutting wood.
Julie Warren thank you so much, only just discovered your work!
Does anyone know if she sells these kitchen sets and where can we buy them if yes?
I no longer sell the kitchen units, as I don't have time to build them, but why not have a go at building one yourself - I'm sure you could do it! :)
What wood do you use for all your furniture projects please
Mainly Obeche and occasionally, Basswood. :)
Is there a video on how you made the scale?
Have a look in the playlists for the 'how to paint metal miniatures' video, and you'll see how I finished the scale.
its much cheaper to use a face brush rather than a paint brush,
Oaiqiaiw9oO9q🤩🤩🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😍😍😍😊😊😊😊😊😊😉😉😉😆😆😆😆😁😁😀😀😀😚😚😚😚😚😚
Thank you. :)
amazing, now make the bathroom
Thank you. I hadn't planned on moving up to the bathroom quite yet, but I'll get there eventually.
