Ajoutez des détails supplémentaires, comme des rideaux, des tapis, des tableaux ou tout ce qui rendra le diorama plus réaliste et intéressant.

Making miniature stuff is fun but exhausting. I make quite a lot. I'm just bad at sharing them. This one though, I'm pretty happy with. It needs sharing. It took me two weeks so....

「Working on My Very First Miniature Kit!」
Hi, this is a behind-the-scenes on my experience in making the Corner of Happiness: Taste of Life DIY miniature kit!
It was from a couple of years ago, we found a stall selling miniature craft kits while strolling around the mall. My sister bought me the very same model I've been eyeing on my online shopping cart as a birthday present.
Me and my sister both love miniatures since we were very young, but making them from scratch require a lot of time, materials, and tools we don't really have (especially if you don't want them to look crudely made). Luckily, now with a Do-it-yourself kit, that wasn't going to be much of an issue! ...or so I'd hoped as a miniature newbie.
Tumblr media
These are all the other variants of this series. I really dig the pink bunny aesthetics they're going for, though it's not as apparent on this one.
The kit also included custom wooden parts, wires, beads, and a tool kit necessary for the build. It also comes with an acrylic glass for dust-free casing!
Tumblr media
Most of the parts were made from a print-out glossy paper with all the items' photo-real textures; some of which are just to be pasted onto a harder material like wood shaped similarly to the object, but most of them are just the paper itself.
I guess doing it this way cuts costs for manufacturing, but it was very challenging to work with, in my opinion. You'll see what I mean in a bit.
Tumblr media
And here's a preview of the instruction booklet's contents.
I thought it was worded weirdly at parts, but still understandable enough with plenty of visuals to go with it.
Tumblr media
Starting with the base/foundation of the model before anything else seemed to be the best option... though I was very, very tempted to skip to work on the food items. I don't know why, but miniature food just gets me really giddy.
But, gotta hold backăƒŒcan't make food without the oven and all.
Tumblr media
I then worked my way through the biggest parts and set them down permanently with the paste provided in the kit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
...but I probably shouldn't have glued the kitchen island in place before placing the handles...aiyah one of them is really crooked-
I'm not familiar with wirings, so setting up the LED lights made me panic a little. But somehow, it all worked out! I'm confident that if an idiot like me can get through this, so can anyone!!
Tumblr media
And now I present to you: The Paper Strugglesℱ
+ and a "It's so fakken small" compilation.
Tumblr media
The booklet is a lie lol that knife .jpg is 5x bigger than what you've got to work with-
Tumblr media
I remember both bread toasts being squished from the tweezers... thankfully tiny enough for anyone to really see, but there's definitely a shtload of dents on there...
Tumblr media
The wire handles for the mug was such a struggle lol it kept falling off no matter what, so I just kept adding glue and just... held on to it with pressure against the bead for what felt like eternity until it dried completely.
Tumblr media
I also remember struggling with the semi-origami flowers quite a bit, but I think the trauma of it all made my brain forget to take photos-
Next up are the wires. I never really considered it before this kit, but they can actually have a lot of use when it comes to making miniature furnitures and accessories.
This was unfortunately before I got into making earrings, so I didn't have the right tools (pliers) to straighten them out. The very thin tweezers that came with the kit didn't help that much, so I just had to use my fingers.
The results... are as wobbly as the hands that created them lol I've learned my lesson...
Tumblr media
that incomplete circle pains me so
And here we have my favorite partăƒŒthe food! All the tiniest of detailing, the garnishing, the arrangements... it just makes me so happy, I really don't understand why.
Tumblr media
The original instructions only intended the oranges to be on the chopping board, but not in this household!!!
Oh, and the oranges were sliced up polymer clay rolls that I know are popularly used as nail art? Me and my sister used to sell polymer clay accessories back in the day and it felt very nostalgic seeing those tubes again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And here we have the finished model! ☆
I made a few changes from the original intended 'look' + added a couple of my own beads from my hoard material collection from childhood I planned on using for when we started making miniatures... and the time for use was most certainly now!
Tumblr media
Aaand here's a bird's eye view before completing with the dust-free acrylic glass encasing top lid.
 CONCLUSION 
Overall, I thought it was really fun, despite the unforeseeable challenges along the way. Even as a newbie with little to no experience working on actual builds + with only the enthusiasm and love for miniatures to desperately cling to when the damn wires wouldn't stick on their corresponding surfaces properly... it seemed to turn out pretty OK!! I expected a whole lot more screaming and dying inside lol If you're interested in getting it, I think simply searching up "Corner of Happiness" or "Taste of Life DIY miniature kit" should get you some results on your preferred online shopping platform! ※NOTE: I do have to stress to make sure to check (either through other user reviews or the listing's description) if the seller is including a tool kit in your purchase. A lot of the items included in this kit you can probably find at home, but not a lot of people are so crafty to just have them lying aroundăƒŒespecially if you're a complete newbie with crafts/miniatures! You'll have a hard time trying to wing it without tools. ※also, they might just skimp on you by not including them, but still have you pay for the full price lol it's definitely worth considering when purchasing.
I know a lot of parents may see these kits to buy for their kids, but unless ➀ they're also helping out the kid in the process or ➁ if the kid in question has no interest or patience for these kind of things, I think it's best not to buy them DIY kits like these if you don't want to risk wasting money. But that's just my opinion, as a broke adult who's always wanted one of these haha
The amount of care, effort, and attention to make sure everything is sturdy enough and visually clean can be very drainingăƒŒ but if you're willingăƒŒanyone can do it!
Tumblr media
And of course, a final very cool look on LED lights turned on at night.
This project was done around 2022ćčŽ. I've done one more miniature kit since then that was way more complex, but that's a whole 'nother journal entry for another day...
For now, here's a mini update of how this Taste of Life is hangin' after two years have passed:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
please don't mind Mr. Gamma side-eyeing you in the BG-
The batteries for the LED unfortunately need replacing and one of the wire chairs kind of died a bit, but it's still alive + currently displayed and part of my makeshift not-all-Shounen Jump Manga corner! I might make a separate blog about that too...
But until thenăƒŒthanks for reading ( ÂŽ ê’ł ` )➝ see you in the next one!★

All my miniature dollhouses, in order of when I made them! They’re a bit shoddy, but I love them nonetheless. My favorite is Simon’s Coffee!

(Miniature) couch restoration
I found this couch ( with a bunch of other things I didn't care about) for 2$ at a second hand store
Tumblr media
Finding dollhouse miniatures is kind of rare around here so I grabbed it, I thought at worst it would be a cheap MDF off of AliExpress or something and I could repaint it, but once I scraped a bit of the paint off I was pleasantly surprised to find a nice wood finish!
Tumblr media
There was at least 3 to 4 layers of paint through (⁠‘⁠◉⁠⌓⁠◉⁠’⁠) (white, gray, maybe white again and finally pink)
Out of curiosity I pried up the fabric which was obviously not the original, to find another unoriginal fabric and pried that up too and that was still not the original đŸ€Ł matroshka doll of upholstery
Tumblr media
After huffing 99% alcohol and paint brush cleaner for probably 5 or so hours I ended up with this
Tumblr media
I left the back and seat of the couch rough as it would be covered in fabric anyway, it looks like that maybe at some point this got sanded in a few spots? I fixed it up by finally using my furniture repair markers as intended (mostly I don't think they had mini furniture in mind)
Tumblr media
You can see on the left half where I tried different colours to see what would match best
Now new upholstery! I only had the original couch cushion seat so I decided to just redo the whole thing in silk of corse (â ïœĄâ â€ąÌ€â áŽ—â -⁠)⁠✧
Tumblr media
I wanted it to look a little worn so I picked this really textured blueish green/cream dupini silk
From barbie would be embarrassed to have this in her house to Victorian centerpiece! Or well I would like to think so ;;;

I did it, everyone, I finished a thing! It’s the first one I ever did fully self directed and it took AGES. But I’m proud of the result.
