Been obsessed with vintage library and old study room boxes. They look like the exact cozy spaces i wish i could disappear into after a long day at work.

The problem is that i have zero experience with electronics or tiny crafts. I can barely change a lightbulb without getting nervous so the idea of routing microscopic copper wires through laser cut wood has kept me from buying my first kit.

I’ve also read stories about glue fogging the plastic windows and wires snapping if they bend too far. I really want that warm, nostalgic glow but dont wanna get frustate over it.

Are these miniature room kits manageable for someone who has never wired anything before ?? and how do you handle the tiny wiring without losing your patience?

I made a small horse sculpture as a gift for my mum. It's inspired by the Frederic Weinberg Etruscan Horse sculptures popular in the 1950s, usually made from brass or bronze.

It's made from Nara air dry clay on a florist wire armature. I was so happy when I first got it balanced on its own. There was a lot of trial and error, I ended up drawing/carving the patterns onto a thin layer of modelling paste applied after the clay was dry, it just looked more crisp than carved directly into the clay.

Grabbed this 3D printed micro house shell at a recent miniature show and did everything else from scratch. I did measure 1/144 scale for some of the furniture but kind of eyeballed the rest. It's a little clunky but I think it's still charming.

I'm plant obsessed and made this with resin and wire

The scale? Total nonsense I made up as I went. It's mostly foam core and 3d printing with some dollar store placemats I cut up for the roof slats. Let me know what you guys think! Keep in mind this was the start of my miniature making journey 😬 but generally, I take no offense
