Text of the page (random words):
mini beginnings skip to main skip to sidebar thursday 17 may 2012 2 years is that a record well it s been 2 years since i started and then abandoned this project and all my other miniature ambitions for various reasons a lot has changed since then and i now have more time on my hands and the miniatures began calling again i ve been thinking a lot about what i d like to do with this project and how to progress it in a fun way i ve finally decided that instead of a standard tudor kitchen this is going to become a witches kitchen i want something that is going to end up fun to look at and to create the mission is still the same in that unfortunately at present i simply cant afford to purchase all the amazing miniatures that are out there so i will be continuing to make everything myself with the materials that i have this includes a witch i have never before created a doll so this could be quite interesting i ll post links to all the tutorials and hope that you can follow my progress the first port of call was do something about the table every time i walked past and looked at it i got more and more unhappy with it firstly it was too long and secondly it was too bright i ve been playing around with it today by cutting a piece off the end and trying to do something about the colour problem number 1 was that i only have a medium oak stain the colour it was in the pictures in the post below and as i am trying not to spend anything unless it is essential i decided to get my paints out a fun half hour later and this is what i ended up with i m really pleased with the result it s darker than it was and i ve added some plank effects to the top which you cant really see in this photo i also started playing with making a chopping board out of the wood that i cut off but i m not sure i may end up with a rebel witch who does her cutting straight on the table we shall see posted by mini beginnings at 14 52 1 comment sunday 9 may 2010 a shiny floor and new table here is the promised photo of the polished tudor floor lol i ve been informed that tudors wouldn t have polished their floors but i do think it looks so much better now and the tudors in my kitchen liked clean floors i ve started furnishing my kitchen by building a trestle table i followed the instructions here as this is my first time furniture making but changed the design of legs so it looks similar to a photo of one in a reconstructed tudor kitchen i m going to work on a shelf next and long stool to go along the left hand wall i made these items a while ago but couldn t resist putting them 0n the table to see how they looked posted by mini beginnings at 15 41 8 comments labels floor furniture room box another welcome to naomi naomi sorry i can t see if you have a blog please correct me if you do have one puno monika from puno s minis 1 12 maria jose from marivigano marleen from marleens miniaturen synnove from synnoves et dukkehjem and glenda from peppercorn minis thank you so much for following my blog i hope you enjoy it here x posted by mini beginnings at 15 23 3 comments labels welcome thursday 6 may 2010 more flagstones i ve been playing around with the kitchen flagstones these past few days and after several colour washes i think i am just about done i m going to seal them with an acrylic sealent which will make them slightly shiny which hopefully will make them look like a swept and polished floor even though i m not sure the tudors would have ever polished their floors i ve suddenly realised that the overall building of the room box is complete wow i wasn t sure i would even get this far i m looking forward to the next stage though of furnishing it again as i have made everything so far from scratch apart from the lights i am going to try and make all the accessories myself i ve armed myself with some wood and some glue and already have a stash of polymer clay so i ll keep you posted with how i get on posted by mini beginnings at 10 27 10 comments labels diy floor room box saturday 1 may 2010 tudor kitchen flagstone floor i ve made a start of the floor of the kitchen following nina s blog and comments thank you nina i really would have been lost without your blog i used a knitting needle to carve stones out of the polyfiller i m now patiently waiting for it to dry so i can sand it down and start colour washing i ve also been playing around with the furniture i ve added some venetian gold and more distressing to the dressing table and painted and distressed a chair to go with it i m going to find some suitable material to upholster the chair and make a cushion all firsts for me so this could be quite interesting i know they both look a bit over the top and i m in two minds as to whether to remove some of the gold but i ll wait and see i think with my recent paint purchases i also bought some crackle glaze i ve been experimenting with it on another piece but haven t quite got it to look right yet i ll post more once i ve played around with it a bit more that s it for now we ve got a bank holiday on monday so i m hoping i might manage to get a bit more done posted by mini beginnings at 17 12 3 comments labels floor furniture room box thursday 29 april 2010 progress is slow tudor walls sorry it seems ages since i last posted something about my roombox i haven t had much time recently so i have only just finished plastering the walls and then i had a go at a few colour washes to age them thank you nina the result isn t too bad sorry it s a bit hard to see in this photo i really need to work on my photography skills i had a couple of hiccups to start with firstly making the grey wash too thick and dark and despite immediately watering it down as i hadn t sanded the walls first another one to remember the paint sunk into the ridges and wouldn t dilute i then ended up going totally in the opposition direction as i found that if you wet plaster like with a colour wash the plaster looks grey and discoloured when you come back to it after it has dried it looks exactly the same as when you started i m not sure if i was doing something wrong but i ended up just kind of slapping it on and hoping for the best when it dried i still need to do a bit more sooting up above the fireplace but i think that is more or less it for the walls if i can ever get the bits of masking tape off that i have managed to plaster to some of the beams pulling making tape off while the plaster is wet is highly recommended next step a flagstone floor made from more polyfiller i ll keep you posted posted by
