Miniature Gothic Cabinet Tutorial - A Tale of Two Finishes Thicketworks Studio 2023-04-10 | It has taken far longer than I anticipated - but, at long last I'm proud to present the latest offering from Thicketworks Studio: The Miniature Gothic Cabinet.For a very long time, I've longed to experiment with metal powder inlays. Woodworkers use this technique all the time, and it can be stunning. I just knew that the intricate paper cuts that are made possible by the Cricut Maker would be a perfect way to bring genuine bronze inlays into our miniature realm!Now, the bronze inlay method involves a LOT of sanding. Oh, yes indeed. For those who crave the look and feel of genuine metal inlay - it's worth it...but not everyone longs for the cool caress of metallic surfaces...So, for those who want a glamorous look without all the hard work, a set of bespoke Miniature Stencils is included, so that either contrasting paint or texture paste can be used instead. Either way, I hope you'll enjoy the process of creating your own version of this little jewel of a cabinet. ➡Purchase SVG Bundles at the Thicketworks Studio Shop:etsy.com/shop/ThicketworksStudio➡Join the Thicketworks Notification Squad:thicketworks.com/newsletter-sign-up➡Sign up for Thicketworks Online Creative Courses:courses.thegraphicsfairy.com🚩Supplies!FTC disclosure: This post and my videos contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission for purchases made through my links.

👑Mini DIY Medieval Tapestries - Pennants - Carpet - Cricut Maker Print Then Cut Project🖌 Thicketworks Studio 2020-03-20 | The Unicorn Tapestries are some of the most iconic, heartbreakingly poignant and exquisitely executed artefacts from the Western Medieval Era.It is an honor to work with these incomparable images - now part of the Public Domain. Print these timeless designs onto fabric using Cricut Design Space to control your printer. Laser or InkJet Printers may be used. If using InkJet, be aware that the colors may smear or run if they come into contact with wet media.Watch this excellent tutorial by Lisa Capen Quilts for an in depth demonstration of how to prepare your fabrics for printing:youtu.be/DfzTXlkQr5oNote: printing fabric may void your printer warranty - do so at your own risk.For Laser Printing I used a Brother HL3140CW Digital Color Printer and an HP LaserJet CP1525nw Color Printer.Best results using tightly woven white Cotton Polyester sheeting material, ironed onto an 8.5 x 11" rectangle of Freezer Paper.InkJet Printing:I used an Epson XP-410 Inkjet Printer, loaded with Durabright Ink Cartridges.Best results printing directly onto Cotton / Polyester Sheeting, ironed onto an 8.5 x 11" rectangle of Freezer Paper.Cricut Design Space Print Then Cut Size Limitations: 9.25 x 6.25"Cricut Maker Material Setting: "Medium Fabrics (like Cotton)"Test to verify that the fabric/backing has cut all the way through PRIOR to unloading the mat.

Medieval Doorways SVG Bundle Cricut Maker Miniature Thicketworks Studio 2020-02-20 | Designing these two variations of Medieval Fortified Doors was an amazing experience. I learned SO much. Now, I want to share it all with you! Using the Cricut Maker to build Miniatures in 1:12 Scale is a grand obsession: don't let anyone fool ya - once you get started, there is no turning back!The Abandoned Boudoir Diorama is in desperate need of doorways grand enough to be worthy of the mysterious Lady that haunts the halls...so, a DEEP DIVE into all things PORTAL was required.Never would I have guessed that a 'simple door' would require two weeks of dedicated effort, but that's the adventure...one never knows just how demanding bringing a vision to life will be. Nope...it's always a journey into the mystery, fraught with unexpected twists and turns.I love that.➡Purchase the Files at the Thicketworks Studio Etsy Shop:etsy.com/shop/ThicketworksStudio➡Join the Thicketworks Notification Squad:thicketworks.com/newsletter-sign-up➡Sign up for Thicketworks Online Creative Courses:courses.thegraphicsfairy.com🚩Supplies!FTC disclosure: This post and my videos contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission for purchases made through my links.

How to Make Paper Hinges Thicketworks Studio 2020-02-06 | Gothic Wrought Iron Hinges - Free Cricut Maker Miniature ProjectTiny Hinges are expensive and most still end up looking too thick for most miniature or scale model projects...I've been pondering this problem for quite some time, and just KNEW that The Cricut Maker could be used to solve this issue, AND to make it possible for use to crank out multiple hinges whenever needed. After LOTS of prototyping, this preliminary design is complete and ready to share with the world!Note: Be sure to pick up the inexpensive Quilling Tool listed below: it will make the difference between success and frustration, I assure you.

🖌Painting Sky Effects🖌 Thicketworks Studio 2019-11-21 | Arteza Acrylics: First ImpressionsSometimes, wonderful things just happen outta the blue. Case in point: getting contacted by Arteza to test out several of their products. I jumped at the chance, because some of my favorite artists have worked with them, and demonstrated very cool uses for their paints. So, this video isn't sponsored, but I did receive the products free of charge. Thank you, Arteza.I've been obsessed lately by the sky. Being a person that focuses more on decorative or faux paint finishes than any other type of painting, I wasn't sure I could pull off painting skies that made me happy...but you know what? It happened. I have a LOT to learn about working with good quality acrylics, but this little adventure was totally satisfying.FTC disclosure: This post and my videos contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission for purchases made through my links.

⚒The Bentley Collection⚒ Thicketworks Studio 2019-10-17 | Good Gravy! Ara Bentley is inspirational, alright. She inspired me right into the depths of MADNESS! 😜Don't know who Ara is? 😱Well, we'll just see about THAT! She happens to be one of the most generous, creative, skilled, hilarious, inventive and adorable Miniaturists on the planet. 💗You can (and MUST) subscribe to her YouTube Channel: youtube.com/channel/UCZymJjUUOHrB7Vfu_YkzstQBorn of a casual request from Ara to use a single Thicketworks Studio svg file from a recent bundle, this EPIC explosion of designing, prototyping and Making emerged...and I'm SO happy that it did! Suffice it to say: once the idea for a Widow's Walk was broached, I was TOAST. Gatehouses, Lanterns, Mansard Roof Lines and Stately Gates sprang unbidden from the subconscious, and resistance was USELESS. It's a long video. Yep. Am I sorry?Nope.Imagine attempting to cram 2 full weeks of YOUR life into an hour of video (give or take!). It takes every minute of footage to explain the Byzantine and Labyrinthine journey from simple Widow's Walk to The Bentley Collection! ➡Purchase The Bentley Collection SVG Bundle here:etsy.com/shop/ThicketworksStudio➡Join the Thicketworks Notification Squad:thicketworks.com/newsletter-sign-up➡Sign up for Thicketworks Online Creative Courses:courses.thegraphicsfairy.com🚩Supplies!FTC disclosure: This post and my videos contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission for purchases made through my links.

⚜Create a Medieval Pendant from Chipboard⚜ Thicketworks Studio 2019-08-15 | Using SVG Files to create Jewelry!Purchase your SVG Bundle here:etsy.com/shop/ThicketworksStudioWe take a look at an enjoyable and simple method that allows us to create Medieval Style Costume Jewelry from layers of lightweight chipboard. Perfect for Cosplay, Theatrical Productions, Special Occasions or Costuming, this technique can enrich your wardrobe and prop-making skills, clearing the path to new creative adventures! The downside? An electronic cutter like the Cricut Maker is required. By learning about the wide array of uses for this technology, you may find yourself motivated to invest in it for yourself. Part of the mission of this channel is to demonstrate just how useful (in many different creative pursuits) a Cricut Maker can be. Why is this part of the mission? There are several reasons. 1: You deserve to have this creative power at your fingertips. For the span of human history, our projects have depended upon what we could 'fussy cut' or on the pre-cut pieces and kits available commercially. This technology puts the power of creativity squarely back where it belongs: in YOUR hands. Need a specific type of flourish to complete that dream project? Design and cut it right now. This instant. Yep.2: Never before has the 'hobby/craft/artisan/artist' population been able to acquire such power to MAKE so inexpensively. Note: the investment is NOT negligible - but it is an investment in YOU - in your own capacity to bring forth the creations that are swirling through your head and heart. This is something worth emphasizing, over and over. How much have you spent on art supplies that are never even used? If you are anything like me, the figure is too high. 3: The possibilities for creative play (and production) are literally endless. Once you begin to allow yourself to imagine possible uses for this technology, you may find that, like me, you are almost overwhelmed by the flood of ideas. Because I'm swimming in an ocean of inspiration, I intend to transform these ideas into reality, one project at a time. The workflow typically revolves around the Cricut Maker - thus, it's impossible for me to share my discoveries with you without referencing it constantly.4: Thicketworks/Thicketworks Studio earns a modest commission for all purchases made via the affiliate links posted here. Keeping the business afloat financially is required in order to continue to provide creative content. Okay, so now that you have a clear idea of WHY, let's get to the HOW!

I've missed you. 😘The past 10 days or so have been spent refining the design for the inaugural SVG Bundle offered through the Thicketworks Studio Etsy Shop. It's a LONG story, but the upshot is: a girl's gotta eat, so yep, we're going all COMMERCIAL! 😱 Not really. But sorta. If you'd like to purchase this bundle, here's the link to the Blog Post where you can find ALL the info:thicketworks.com/how-to-build-a-miniature-gothic-bedTo jump straight over to Esty, click THIS link:etsy.com/shop/ThicketworksStudioIf you want ALL of the skinny about why this is happening, you can read this post, on Facebook:bit.ly/2xU8uQOLet's just dive right in, shall we? In this video you'll discover all the steps required to turn the Miniature Gothic Bed SVG Bundle into this gloriously distressed 1:12 Scale Medieval Full Tester Bedstead. The process is extremely similar to putting together one of those fancy laser cut chipboard kits, but a teensy bit more complex than most of them. Because, well, I couldn't help myself!😅 Of course, in order to build the thing, you'll need to purchase the bundle, cut all of the files, and assemble them according to the instructions here - BUT, I share some interesting techniques in this video that can be applied to any number of projects, even if you HATE Medieval Splendor.My favorite technique? Creating an absorbent ground on a flimsy chipboard surface, using super cheap and readily available supplies. Yep.Then, I go all crazy with the Gilding Thingie - (even though I'm the world's SLOPPIEST gilder!)...because: GOLD! Anyway, I hope that you enjoy the process - it's been a gigantic effort behind the scenes to bring this one into the world, and I am super happy about it!➡Join the Thicketworks Notification Squad:https://thicketworks.com/newsletter-s...➡Sign up for Thicketworks Online Creative Courses:courses.thegraphicsfairy.com🚩Supplies!FTC disclosure: This post and my videos contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission for purchases made through my links.

🚧Miniature Magnetized Wall Panel🚧 Thicketworks Studio 2019-06-06 | How to make a detachable Diorama Wall!Obviously, The Secret Garden HAD to be completely enclosed: it's SECRET!But, after all of the loving care that has been used to create the various components, we don't want to seal the view away forever...so what to do???A detachable 'face' or front wall seemed like an interesting solution, so I dug into the stash, found a variety of small scale (but mighty) magnets, pushed them into the foam (so easy) then glued them in place. To make sure that they stayed there, a thin layer of paper was glued over the top, keeping the magnets in place, but not interfering with their holding power. Yay!I also experimented with incorporating natural elements into the facade, increasing the liveliness of the composition, and attempting to make them more durable over time. I hope you enjoy this next-to-the-last segment of The Secret Garden Diorama Adventure!🚩Supplies!FTC disclosure: This post and my videos contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission for purchases made through my links.

Today, we complete the Portal that allows us to enter into the enchantment of the mysteriously romantic garden...You know how a particular project can lead you in unexpected directions? Well, this one is teaching me SO much about many things... The main thing I'm learning? The depth of passion I have for designing svg files. Yep. I could design all day, every day, and not lose interest...there is MAGIC (for me, anyway) in the process of translating real world objects into 2D silhouettes, then scheming up ways to bring them into 3D as miniatures. The inspiration is literally endless, and my enthusiasm for the process is keeping pace. In other words: this path has me on FIRE! Today's offering marks the beginning of a journey that I hope won't end for a LONG, long time: to bring forth the tiny architectural accents that I yearn to construct, with all the precision and detail that my vision demands.
