Learn how to make a miniature toaster oven with simple everyday items. I used cereal box, paper, plastic canvas, trash plastic, tape, a toothpick, a bead, a staple etc. No printer or technology needed! Use what you you have. You can substitute materials for one another. You can use toothpicks as a sub for the plastic canvas grate. You can also cut the shape out of cereal box and strengthen it with super glue. I love how the "electric" plug turned out. I made it with a string from a price tag, a piece of cereal box, printer paper, and wood glue. You can add a cord like this to your miniature electronics for added realism.
I didn't make my door open. Here's a video from Little Gretchen's Workshop showing how you can make the door function:

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

I have lots of projects planned ranging from abandoned miniatures, furniture makeovers, accessories, kits and Dollhouse Miniatures in multiple scales. I also have a large Harry Potter build planned for 1" scale.

Oh my goodness, you are absolutely killing me with your genius and talent!
Thank you 😊
Extraordinary. I never imagined getting so excited over a toaster oven AND a plug. 🔌 Your attention to detail is astonishing. You put in details that I didn’t even notice on the real thing….!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much! I like to Google reference photos.
I am deeply in love with your channel! I am impressed with all the research you do for every piece and the thoughtfulness you put into your miniatures. Sometimes when I watch miniature/diorama videos, I think "Come on, in real life it does not go this way" - but in every video of yours this is what you tell in many cases I would never think before. I am amazed by the level of detail that you are into, but you really have shot me to my very heart with the knowledge that you have and your desire to learn more. Thank you for allowing to see your work!
Wow! Thank you so much for such a thoughtful comment 😊
What a great toaster! The detail is amazing and your mind is incredibly creative...when it comes to thinking outside the box, I think you left the box in another room! Vivat!
Thanks so much! 😊 I love that! This came out a lot more realistic looking than I expected. I love how the grimy paint turned out.
Granny grating! Lol! Awesome job! It looks so realistic. I thought for sure you used metal for the prongs. It’s so cute!
I really try to avoid having to glue metal to things, so I look for substitutes
New Follower here!!! I love love love this channel !!! So addictive!! I used to make dolls houses from old cereal boxes as a child. If only we had YT then! lol. Now I’ve got arthritis and poor eyes 👀 but I’m happy 😃 to be able to follow these projects with you. You are bringing so much joy… May you continue xxx
Thank you so much! I made a Barbie house from cardboard boxes when I was a kid. I really wish I still had it, or at least a photo of it. At least we have the memories!
The grimy door makes it eerily realistic. I felt like I was looking at my own toaster oven. The wood glue plus testors is magic. I usually prefer some kind of vintage stuff but this was wonderful ❤
Thank you! I made it for a specific project
You definitely do details to maximize realistic items‼️Bravo🤩
Thank you! 😊 I like how much impact tiny, simple details can make.
That plug tho! Wow!
I love it! It turned out so petite.
@@queencityminis not just petite … perfect too!
Wood Glue was the mvp!! I love to use it in my projects as well
I love it! I use wood glue so much.
Good grief! How amazing. I'm always in awe of how you work with such tiny things, cutting and painting. Love this so much
Thank you so much!
I am absolutely blown away! This is the cutest toaster ever! I can’t believe that tiny tiny plug 😍
Thanks! I'm glad the simplest idea worked
It looks grea. You did a really great job on it. The cutest toaster oven I’ve I’ve ever seen.
Thanks so much! 😊
Wow, your imagination is mind boggling. That plug-I have no words-it’s amazing. I so enjoy watching your videos, thank you for sharing with us. See you in the next video.👍❤️
Thank you! I considered using more bits of staple but I like to go with the was I think will be easiest.
@@queencityminis I think this way was more realistic looking.
Looks realistic. You must have patience and a steady hand to make the prongs. I'm glad you did because it made it look so real.
Thank you 😊
Omigosh, that plug is adorable! Also, amazing what a little wood glue can do to make things realistic! Thanks for sharing!
Wood glue is indispensable to me at this point
The way you did the rounded edges is genius!
Thank you ☺️
The dials! ❤
I'm happy with how they turned out
I laughed way too hard at the exploding food comment, because of course we've all been there! Loved this project.
Oh yes. Especially in microwaves.
One word…genius…thanks for sharing
Thank you so much ☺️
the entire project was fantastic but for some reason I was in awe of the little handles and how you made those and also using the elastic tag string for the cord! genius! This is why nothing gets tossed out...omg!
I know. The more times I use a piece of trash I collected, the closer I get to becoming a hoarder 😆
@@queencityminis I keep thinking that if I can just contain my hoard to my craft room than I’m not a real “hoarder” 🤣🤣🤣 denial is everything
Hey Shyra, Cassandra here. I love these projects but I still can't believe you work at such a small level. The little plug made me so happy! The wood glue part works so well and the rest is stuff we all collect (don't we?), so easy to TRY to make one materials-wise. If only my eyes were better lol. 💜
Thank you so much! I'm so glad I picked up the wood glue trick from Bentley House Minis from her Abandoned Coffee Shop project. I use wood glue as a coating for so many minis.
You’re such a good fabricator!
I appreciate that 😊
This amazing project is why I look forward to your videos! 💜💜💜 Just wonderful!
Thank you so much!
Now that is fantastic and the little plug is so perfect. Thank you for sharing your ideas.
You are so welcome!
This really turned out cute too. You can use glitter to make the spots around the dials to look like the spots where the numbers used to be. It looks to be a well used toaster oven, so no numbers just the lines where they used to be. lol Have a great day
Great idea!! I packed my glitter away since I'm moving. I'll try to remember that.
Absolute perfection. I love it. You are so inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing your genius with us! haha Awesome job!
Thank you so much 💓
Wow, thank you!!!I wasn't planning on making a toaster oven for my house, but now I have to! Yours is so cute and I already have all the materials! I to really really love how you made the plug.
By the way, I've found that when I use Testors enamel paint, if I just load up my brushes with lots of soap I can clean it with just soap and warm water, and that way I don't need to pull out the mineral spirits for small stuff.
Thanks so much for your fun and clear tutorials!
You are so welcome!
That's an interesting tip. I'll try to clean the brushes with just soap and water. Thanks!
Amazing detail and talent! That tiny plug thro me . One very clever lady x look forward to your next vid 😊
Thank you! 😊
That came out awesomely. Love the plug...wood glue is a favorite of mine as well.❤🥰
It's such a versatile glue. I love it
Another winner! I am always so in awe of what you do with simple materials!
Thank you so much ☺️
I am amazed at how realistic this looks! Really great job🎉
Thanks so much 😀
Me encanta que lo hagas tus trabajos con materiales comunes,no todos tenemos un cricut o una 3D,ademas asi se antiva mas la imaginacion🤓
That's so true! Thank you very much
Omg so freaking cute!
Thank you 😊
I really enjoyed this you amaze me with your tiny details
Thank you so much!
Stunning! Just wanted to mention that wood glue where I live usually is just pva glue.. I figured this out the hard way..
Oh no! That stinks
That plug looked so realistic! The whole, tiny toaster oven looks great!❣
Thank you! I'm glad I added the plug. I wasn't planning to.
You ARE the "queen" (get it- the queen...?) of adding details in order to achieve more realistic minis! Loved the vid! @@queencityminis
Good grief, Shyra! Is there anything you can't do?😮 Honesty, you simply blow my mind. I have a hard time working with normal size 1:12 scale; those teeny tiny details are impossible for me. I need one of you at my house!
😆 thank you!
Another great tutorial, thank you!❤
You are so welcome!
Shyra, you and Tiny Houses are my favorite mini channels. Please do not change. I stop watching creators that use and depend on machines instead of the artistic side of this form of art. I have been a miniaturist since the '70's and it was always hands-on creativity. Yes, I do understand the advances.
Don't change.
Thank you so much ☺️
Amazing!!!!! Love how realistic it looks. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you ☺️
I love it! Apparently I really really need to make one of these now lol. You always explain how you do things so simply and clearly, and its so easy to follow along. Thanks Shyra
I'd love to see toaster oven earrings 😆
@@queencityminis 🤣🤣🤣
👍😍👍Awesome ... thanks for sharing !!!
Thanks for watching!
Very cute
Thank you! 😊
So awesome 💯 thank you 👍🏾
You are so welcome 🤗
Thank you so much for sharing your ideas !
Glad you like them!
Shout out to The Restore, if y’all have one. It’s a thrift store that supports Habitat for Humanity. They have lots of hardware stuffs for less. Maybe that shiny tape, little springs and nails n such.
Absolutely! Great tip
You're so good making mini things I love your channel I subbed💗
Welcome 🙏
Absolutely adorable, you are very creative. ❤
Thank you!
Another amazing mini.
Thank you 😊
Great job on the plug! I love how you focus on the smallest details for realism. Did you know some frozen pizzas come with a gray material to help the product to crisp? It would make a great fake aluminum. Might be easier than foil. And already comes attached to thin cardboard. I love your videos!
Oh yeah! I know what you mean.
Great job!
Thanks!
Amazing!
Thanks!
Love your videos and your creativity!!!
Thank you so much!
How cute. You make it all seem sooooo easy. All of your work is fantastic. My favorite part of this video was when you made the piece for the sink by punching four holes first. Brilliant!! My jaw dropped when I saw that. Can’t wait to try it. Looking forward to more videos!
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you so much!
So creative! Such great tips.
Thank you 😊
Wow. You did so much with so little.
Thank you 😊 I love making minis out of trash or odd things
Love this!! Thank you!
My pleasure 😊
❤😊
Thank you 😊
Awesome!! ❤
Thanks 🤗
I love watching your videos your soft voice helps me relax. Do you have a website you sell your miniatures on I would love to have some in my house.
I'm actually planning to sell some larger pieces. I'll post it on my community page if I do.
Your are absolutely amazing beautiful 👌
Thank you so much ☺️
Perfecto! Eres genial!
Thank you 😊
Your videos are such a treat to watch! Your work is so inspiring, and they way you use accessible materials and explain your techniques has motivated me to finally try out some of the ideas for miniature projects that I've been thinking of for ages. I have one question that I would love your help with: I bought the little bottles for glue that I saw you recommend in another one of your videos, but I can't figure out how to get the (wood) glue in them without making a giant mess. Even the tiny funnel I got was too big for the opening of the bottle! Do you have any suggestions?
I squeeze it in from the big bottle, making sure not to cover the entire hole so air doesn't get trapped
I use color shrinky dinks and uv resin
That sounds like a blast!
Love it! Can you tell me the mesures or what scale it fit! 👍🏾
This is 1:12 scale
Did you make that up-granny grate? 😂😂😂 That's pretty hilarious!
Also, do you have an idea in mind for that microwave, or did you just feel like it'd be a fun project to tackle?
I forget where I heard that, but I didn't make it up lol
I'm using the toaster oven in a secret project I've been working on
@@queencityminis secret?!? 🤣
good afternoon friends 🤣🇮🇩🇮🇩😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Thank you!
Wouldn't this be a faux toaster oven or does the toaster actually work if you wired a real plug?
Definitely a faux toaster oven. It's made from cereal box 😉
❤😊
Thank you 😊
