I started a new job and its been CRAZY! It seems like I'm always at work, recovering from work, or getting ready for work! I made this iron throne a while back...if you follow me on Instagram (link below) you saw the pictures. It took forever for me to get around to editing this video though. I will try to get a steady crafting schedule together soon. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this video.
I used several wooden coffee stir sticks, jumbo popsicle sticks, wooden pic sticks, toothpicks, paper towels, beads, and paint to complete this project.

I decided it was past time for me to start a new Dollar Tree Makeover series. This time I am redoing the table. This table is odd. Its too tall for a coffee table, and too short for a dining table, so I will be adding on, removing, or totally subbing the legs to make it fit the item I am making.
I am using a wooden vase from Walmart, but use what you have on hand...I also considered a round wooden bead and 2 buttons for example. Get creative!

I made a quick trio of tables for you today! There is a coffee table, and end or side table, and a sofa or console table. All are made with cheap bangle bracelets that I got in a local thrift store or that were given to me. One more thing. I'm still trying to find my lights, so all of my colors and shadows are wonky. I hope you enjoy the video!
Coming soon: Patreon: Blogger: Ko-fi: Etsy: Address to send meDIY Dollhouse Furniture Glam Fireplace from a Dollar Tree Picture FrameReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2019-01-21 | A few updates. I moved (again). Now I'm in Ocala, Florida. I'm about an hour and a half from Orlando. I can see weekend trips to Epcot in my future. The 3rd bedroom in my home will become a devoted craft room. This is the first time I've had a full craft room, so I'm excited. For now, its wildly unorganized and all of my things are in boxes and the room is underfurnished. My brother visited over Christmas and bought with him the miniatures I made when I lived in Texas 2 years ago. I'm not sure if they survived being stored for that long though. A dollhouse I made when I was 12 years old makes a brief cameo in this video. It is not ready for a tour since it is in very bad shape. I recovered some small dollhouses I had in storage, but they all need makeovers...not this year...I need a plan for them first. However, I am hoping to do a very nonconventional build of one this year. We shall see.
Finally, this video is a Premiere video...I'm just testing it out so I am not advertising it.

I did a lot of research on this and pestered some aquarium affectionados as well as some fish supply vendors. This will actually work in a freshwater aquarium as long as your resin is mixed and cured properly and your glues are completely dry, but you do want to make sure to keep up with your water changes to remove any chemicals and excess salt that may reside in the plastic, resin, and sand.

Because of its simplistic design, this was an amazingly quick build: the lights took the longest by far at nearly 2 hours (including drying time). There is a sofa coming up to go with it, but ya'll know me...it may take a few months.

I'm attempting to make 1 per day for the last 13 days of October. Join me (hopefully) every night for the remainder of October!
I also used: 1. Tube of 5 Christmas Ornaments 2. 2 Containers of Gel Water Beads 3. Nail Polish
From around the house: 1. Super glue 2. Glue Sticks (3)
Special instructions: My alien has been in its jar for 3 days with very few changes. Do not be tempted to use paint! I initially used paint for the eyes that I covered with clear nail polish, but that's why the eyes are cloudy (which I personally kinda like). The water beads expand rapidly with the addition of water and continue to expand as they soak. Leave room at the top of your container to allow for this. Otherwise, they overflow and bounce everywhere. 4. Rhinestones

Dollhouse Miniature Furniture MakeoverReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2018-06-26 | Comment, comment, comment! I need to know if you want to see more of these. What styles? Which furniture pieces? Which desk makeover did you like the best and why?Dollar Tree to Luxury Miniature Furniture Makeover DIY Contemporary Bathroom Vessel SinkReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2018-06-25 | Hey guys! This is the 5th and final edition of my Dollar Tree desk makeover series. To create this look, I used 1 popsicle stick,5 wooden coffee stir sticks, 4 matchsticks, 2 pairs of chopsticks, and a travel bottle or water bottle. For the hardware, I used a scrap from a coffee stir stick, 2 Q-Tips, a pill capsule, and a small drinking straw. I used wood glue throughout the tutorial but I do use a tad bit of e 6000 on the hardware.
I removed a lot of pieces from this so its almost unrecognizable as the original Dollar Tree desk and I also added a lot of pieces. Because of the amount of changes and detail, this video is longer than the other pieces I have made in this series.
Working on a recap video today...hopefully it will be up tonight.Dollar Tree to Luxury Miniature Furniture Makeover DIY Mission Desk with HutchReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2018-06-18 | Hey guys! This is the 4th edition of my Dollar Tree desk makeover series. To create this look, I used 6 popsicle sticks and 3 wooden coffee stir sticks, For the hardware, I used scraps from the coffee stir sticks and 7 jump rings. I used wood glue throughout the tutorial but I do use a tad bit of super glue on the hardware to adhere the jumprings to the wood.
This was the easiest of all of these so far since I only added some drawers and the hutch. I knocked it out yesterday afternoon and still had time to edit the video before bedtime.
I reference digging in my trash (don't judge me!) for pieces discarded in this video:
youtube.com/edit?o=U&video_id=2JFk3Xxu6AUEasy DIY Coastal Nautical Spool Side Table Dollhouse Miniature FurnitureReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2018-06-15 | Hi guys! This is a super easy project...inspired by Bullard's Spool Side Table. As I say in my video, Bullard's was inspired by French designs while mine is decidedly coastal or Nautical. If you would like to replicate Bullard's French rendition, use yarn for a smoother and more polished rope and use filled and sanded wood (or paper) for the surface.
I'm using: jute $1 Dollar General large spool $2 WalMart coffee stir sticks free - $8 Trader Joes, Wholefoods Grab a handful of 6 or 7 or buy a box of 1000 online at Ebay or Amazon...I've been using the same box for a year now and I'm only about halfway through.Dollar Tree to Luxury Miniature Furniture Makeover DIY Coastal BenchReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2018-06-10 | Hey guys! This is the 3rd edition of my Dollar Tree desk makeover series.

I also mention that I made the baskets according to a previous video I made. The link is below.

This is a pretty easy project...its fast too, but the drying can take a little extra time. I'm going to start listing the materials and approximate price of them too. I'm also listing locations of where I found what I used if I buy something new or unusual, but I never shop anywhere special for my materials...just Michaels, Hobby Lobby, WalMart, Dollar Tree, Dollar General, Ebay, and Amazon. Oh, and most fabric I buy are old clothes or pillows from Goodwill, Salvation Army, and Habitat for Humanity ReStores.
I'm using: 6mm jumprings $2 Michaels super glue gel $3 Michaels epoxy adhesive $2 Dollar General gold enamel paint $2 Michaels Furry cat toy $2 Dollar General
If this is just a piece for display and decoration, you can use the superglue, but for actual use to hold a doll or to move around the superglue will not hold it, that is why I added the epoxy adhesive.
Please allow the superglue to dry for about an hour before adding the epoxy. Allow the epoxy to dry for 20 minutes before adding the enamel. Allow the enamel to dry overnight.Dollar Tree to Luxury Miniature Furniture Makeover DIY Hollywood Glam VanityReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2018-05-24 | Hey guys! This was not my idea! Tanya McKibben (a really good miniature artist) posted this on her Instagram and I thought it was a wonderful idea. I had planned to make a mirrored Glam style desk, but I loved that she took an existing piece of nondescript furniture and changed it into something beautiful.

I used green copy paper and wire for all of the plants except for the hostas. I used aluminum tape for that one just so the leaves would curl and because the deeply veined texture shows up better. We Love Miniatures also provides a Hostas tutorial and a printout so you can always use their pattern as well.

The structure stands 8 inches tall including the 1 inch base and 6 inches wide and deep. My sound was really bad...sorry. I re recorded it 3 times with minimum improvement so...yeah.

Links to follow soon!DIY Dollhouse Miniature Wooden Walk In Closet Wardrobe FurnitureReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2018-01-01 | Hi guys! I filmed this in 2 different locations while I was out of town over my Christmas break and I admittedly got a bit lazy on it. So much to do so little time, yadda, yadda, yadda. This is the last tutorial of 2017 but I'm currently filming a product review and a paper tutorial for the first 2 videos of 2018. Of course, there will be a recap for 2017 tonight too. Happy New Years to you all!DIY Plastic and Resin Lucite Ghost Dining Set Table and Chairs Miniature Dollhouse FurnitureReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2017-12-07 | First off, forgive my high pitch voice with this video. I completed this video at Thanksgiving and I had just gotten my voice back.
Notes about the video: I'm using the plastic poster frame my son broke a few months ago when we first moved. I've had it for years, but it was purchased at Wal Mart, and I'm pretty sure it was this one.
Use sharp scissors to cut to minimize cracking, but the resin will fill in and cover small cracks and scratches.
If you wish to use plastic packaging, just use 2 thin coats of resin on the plastic pieces instead of 1, allowing the resin to partially cure between coats.
At the very end of the video is a clip that I did not notice until after publishing. Its not a blooper, just a bit of film that I used in the video that I hadn't muted. My 4 year old is singing London Bridge on it. I just decided to leave it instead of republishing because he can be thoroughly embarrassed by it in another 2-3 years.DIY Ice Cream Shop Parlor Counter Dollhouse Miniature FurnitureReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2017-11-17 | I made this video back in late July and early August, but editing it kept getting pushed back because I was trying to move so before it gets too cold here, I thought it was time to release it. This counter was a request from Pearl at dollhousediva.blogspot.com/. i hope she likes it...since she waited so long for it. ;-)DIY Glass Bookshelf Dollhouse Miniature FurnitureReal Life Dollhouse Miniatures2017-11-12 | Hey guys! You can substitute a square wooden dowel or matchsticks to make this project. I'm using the stacked coffee stir sticks because I still have too many ...so the the bookshelf and the upcoming microwave (yeah, I'm telling you Thursday's video) are using scraps.
I think I'm back to my regular upload schedule again providing I can work the narrating out every week so you can expect a new video every Thursday and Sunday and probably a couple of bonuses that I made and recorded but haven't edited yet. I'm excited! I have serious withdrawal when I'm not making miniatures!

The next props video will show at the end of August and I will show you the soap dish, towel rack, and backsplash then. Thanks for watching!
I made this video nearly 2 weeks ago but I could not post it yet. My computer is having some issues. I cannot record and I cannot hear on it anymore. A couple of days ago this crashed and would not boot up for 3 days. To get the sound on, I had to utilize another computer (not mine). I can either continue to produce videos on a regular basis without sound and to go back and fix them later if I can or I can just wait until the craziness of the move and enrolling my son in school is over and try to purchase a new computer when my finances are more stabilized (October or November) before continuing to record anymore. Let me know what you would prefer. Fortunately, the next videos after this one (an ice cream shop display) has sound.
If you'd like to help and are able, I have 2 options for you. You can comment, subscribe, and leave a thumbs up on both videos today and share them on social media. This helps to bring additional views to the video which YouTube will eventually pay me for. I have also set up a Go Fund Me account specifically for a computer because I'd love to replace it before it dies on me again. If you would rather PayPal, send to chatoyantartistry@gmail.com Every donation would be deeply appreciated.

2. This video went up before with no narration and not the updated version where I'd changed the music a minute in. Everybody hated it...but I quickly saw that no one read the description box where I said my sound card was not working because the comments were all to record in a different way except my computer is not recording at all. I cannot record and I cannot hear on it anymore either. Then, before I could get the next video up, the whole computer crashed and would not boot up for 3 days. To get the sound on, I had to utilize another computer (not mine).

2. 10,000 subscribers! Thank you so much! I am so flattered and humbled! I am grateful to each and every one of you! It was my intention to do a giveaway at this milestone but I've got waaayyyy too much going on (keep reading) so I'll have to do one at a later milestone.
3. Unfortunately, this video and the one following has music but no narration. After I added the music something happened and it would not record me nor can I hear any sounds from the video either. This laptop is pretty old though and it's on its last leg. However, having just completed moving from Texas to South Carolina and trying to get my son in school, it's not in the cards to replace right now and for several months down the line. I'm sorry. I will get things replaced as soon as I can or I'll have to discontinue the videos until I can make other arrangements. I hate to be tacky, but if you'd like to help and are able, I have set up a Go Fund Me account specifically for a computer because I'd love to replace it before it dies on me.

I'll be going back home to get my son ready to start preschool on Sunday. I've done many collabs on YouTube for my channel but most of the time my collab partners are in other countries or states. How cool is that to make collaboration video with someone who lives 3 hours away? I was super excited to see her miniatures...they are so tiny. I watch her channel but, wow.

This is a collaboration between Kraken Make Ruckus and Real Life Dollhouse Miniatures. She has made a traditional WORKING waterfall in her 1:24 scale koi pond. Please go check out her page and her video in the links below:
In order to shorten the time on this video, I do skip on some of the steps that you have seen me do before in other projects, but You should get the general idea of what I'm doing. I'm using wood, resin, dried grasses, sand, paper and caulk to create this scene. To reduce the weight of it, I am using wood that I've textured like stone for the walls of the fountain and the lantern.

This tutorial is easy and I'm not even using solder for it. I'm using super glue to attach the metal...and while its not the most secure fit for a doll to sit in, it is perfect for collectibles. I will be soldering in the future but I'm out of flex. :-( I'm using glass for my table topper, but plastic packaging will also work.
Also, I filmed the topiary in the photographs. It will be shown in a future video.
