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

See, youve made this whole hobby accessible to anyone with a recycling bin. I love how you dont use loads of fancy tools and expensive supplies. ❤❤❤

@gabaleo2568 1 year ago

I can't believe you gave us another hour long video, it makes me so happy! 🤗🤗 Thank you very much ❤

@emdee8840 1 year ago

I agree with your belated assessment that the red spatterware looked better as it was.

@claireful 1 year ago

You have such an ability to see the individual shapes in something so you can put it together tiny. I have learned so much from you. The bellows and trap are amazing.

@ninab.953 1 year ago

You really convey your enjoyment for the creation of miniatures. While I’m sure there is a challenge in completing your goal… you seem to have “joy” in the journey.

Given all that’s going on “everywhere”, (and I don’t even have t.v.), watching you work as I quilt or at the end of a very busy day; is a welcome - sigh… Truly, thank you for sharing.

@CajunCraft24 1 year ago

Oh my goodness the bear trap and snow shoes… and I could watch moss placement for hours ❤

@tamilockhart8323 1 year ago

I really enjoy watching your videos, it’s wonderful that you’ve chosen to share them with us. You pay so much attention to detail! If/when you make any mistakes, they aren’t noticeable! Thank you again.

I LOVE this video. I love all the little details all the little techniques and how long it is. I started it just as a watch with my morning coffee. But only a quarter of the way through I'm wanting to get my diorama and work with you! So fun and so inspiring.

@Ktamsor2 1 year ago

I love your sense of humor. You make it fun to watch your videos, not just informative.

@InBetweenTimelines 7 months ago

I'm watching your videos while I craft. It's soothing and bits of knowledge help (after the fact). 😂

@jnelson437 11 months ago

First you are very creative and have imagination to use every day items. Second, I love you sarcastic comments while giving instructions. I really enjoy watching your videos and I learned my are trial and error just like yours.

I'm a new subscriber, for your bear trap, I have saved the foil found in coffee cans under the lid. I have learned alot on your channel, and I thank you for that. I'm pretty darned impressed. 🖌👍❤

@kimpeasester 1 year ago

Love that you created everything by hand. A few pieces were perplexing because you painted them where pain wasn't really needed like the broom stick.

@grai-like-gray 1 year ago

really enjoying this tutorial. I preferred the red speckle dishes too.

@Wishtelle 1 year ago

You know its gonna look amazing when they pull out the caviar beads, but to be fair everything they make is lovely

@opalcarroll3195 1 year ago

Mom always said it was her Scotch soul which hated waste!

@bethlovesthings 1 year ago

Love love loooove these combo videos. I was surprised you fully painted the speckle dishes instead of just ageing them BUT they still look great for the project.

Genuinely inspiring as always ✨

I really love the Rustic Cabin with it's snowshoes, bear trap and all the goodies there. It really turned out cute. That fire pit is great as well. Thanks for sharing and you have a wonderful day
