1/12th Scale Child's Cot Tutorial

[@lillyblank1019]

I love the British doll houses with front doors make all the sense you create great tutorials

[@JulieWarren]

Thanks so much 😊

[@sarapiburn2523]

I love this little baby’s bed! Wish I had seen this when my grandson was a baby. Now my little grandson is 20 years old, 6’ 4’’ tall and at college! 😄😄😄 Wonderful tutorial 💜

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Sara. 🙏😊

[@jerrilynnroth2117]

There is not one project that you have done that I haven't liked. I enjoy watching your tutorials because they are concise and the item is always beautifully finished. I love your squirrel friend too.

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much Jerri.

[@cpech2]

love you little visitor!! The baby cot or crib as we say in USA is darling!!! you are a great teacher and make such wonderful miniatures!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much Chris.

[@stephaniemorriss3553]

You are SOOOOO clever!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you, Stephanie. :)

[@rossywalo]

I particularly love your long videos, so I enjoy them more. Your work is spectacular and I will NEVER tire of seeing them. Keep it up, please, Julie, never change. xoxo

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Rossy. I'm trying to find a balance, making them a bit shorter, but without missing anything out!

[@debbiedusterhoft2870]

Great vlog. We have a spoiled squirrel too.

[@anjakjrgaard5024]

Love this - will definitely make on soon😊😊 And I will so much look forward to more furniture for the babyroom!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Anja. I hope you enjoy making it.

[@christinewebster7457]

Another great tutorial Julie, I purchased two of your books last week, and I'm off to buy some wood tomorrow, I've been watching all of your tutorials and it's got my fingers itching, I haven't done anything with my dolls houses for a few years, but hopefully they will be "liveable" soon. x

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much for buying the books. I'm so glad you're getting back into the hobby and hope you'll have fun making the pieces.

[@Therealgirlinthedesert]

I’m thrilled you did this tutorial! Making this next. You did a great job!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Dayna. I hope you'll enjoy making it.

[@wendysolman327]

Love your projects....and love Mr Squirrel too!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Wendy. I'll tell Mr Squirrel you say Hi! :)

[@dawnmason9558]

Aww this is adorable ..almost as adorable as your squirrel!

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Dawn.

[@mikeandlisafleming3963]

So cute! Great job, Julie.

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you.

[@bethgaither1214]

Too cute, just too cute!!

[@rose.g.belfort71]

Adorable! ❤Have a wonderfull day. xx

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you. You too. xx

[@christinebrannigan1288]

This is very cute

[@marizagonzalez28]

I will try this beautiful crib for my little me. Will you teach us how to make a tiny teddy bear 🧸 for it???? Thank you so much. Love your videos. Waiting for my second book to arrive!!!! 🙃

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you Mariza, I'm glad you're going to give the crib a go. I'm afraid Teddy bears aren't my line of expertise, although I wish they were! :)

[@ian1957ruth]

It seems over here in Florida obeche wood in the sizes you mention is as rare as hens teeth. Base (no I have not miss spelt Balsa) wood seems to be the alternative.

[@jerrilynnroth2117]

Ian Scott I'm glad you've specified the wood you use. Obeche is not available any where near Hilton Head Island either. I'm willing to say I'll find a hen with teeth before I find obeche. Lol

[@JulieWarren]

I haven't used Basewood (is that used for making guitars?) Another alternative is Basswood, also known as Limewood.

[@ian1957ruth]

I may have to dye my hair blond to match the moment I may have had. I saw basswood but read basewood.

[@JulieWarren]

I think there is a wood called Basewood though...

[@connieb6161]

Basswood is a good replacement. Don’t use Balsa. Way too Soft.

[@katfaerie]

Great tutorial!

[@JulieWarren]

Thanks Kate.

[@slayerceeceegaming]

I wish I could give this a "love" instead of a like. I must say though... kind of miss watching you apply glue and make both halves and stuff. I know you're probably trying to shorten your videos (I've seen the comments about length) but I really enjoy how thorough your videos have been. Also... more nursery furniture would be amazing to see! I've missed the squirrel 😂

[@JulieWarren]

Thank you so much! I have been trying to edit the videos a bit better, but also trying to find a balance between being thorough but not too long! I will add some more nursery projects to my list. I'll tell the squirrel you say hello! :)

[@sandraorganizationseeking1685]

Have you ever made a bunk bed video? I love this cot!

[@JulieWarren]

I haven't actually, but I shall add it to my list!

[@mariapeters7899]

I loved this totuorial and i am wondering if you made the tedy bear to?

[@JulieWarren]

I didn't I'm afraid, he's been in my collection for some time. Thank you for watching.

[@a4eyg32]

CCUUTTEE !,!!!

[@JulieWarren]

Thanks Elaine.

[@cherrywillowT_T]

this is cute but I really want to make one from my 1/6 bjd which is 28cm I can't fine any cot for my doll in his size

[@JulieWarren]

This piece is pretty easy to adapt, if your doll is 1/6, you can just double the measurements I’ve given. 😄

[@cherrywillowT_T]

@@JulieWarren thanks i'll be sure to keep that in mind when making the cot👍🏼👍🏼💗😺

[@georgecunningham9175]

Oops! I forgot to admire your squirrel! Charming fellow, he is........

[@JulieWarren]

He is a cheeky little fellow.

[@dawsie]

😹😹I don’t believe I have both those books that you used to weight it all down been a while since I have read either of them 😹😹😹 I love the cot but was wondering how hard it would be to make it with one side can be raised and lowered like a real cot.🤔🤔🤔

[@JulieWarren]

That a coincidence about the books, although I do have rather a lot!! The cot could be make with a sliding side, you would need to create a runner on two of the side legs using thin stripwood and do it that way I think.

[@dawsie]

Julie Warren lol it could be a coincident lol was just so funny to see lol. Yes I was thinking along the lines of that for a movable cot side next time I am in the city I will look at the nursery section of the shop I go to and have a look. Will have to take some photos so I know what I will be doing 😸😸

[@JulieWarren]

I always have my camera on hand when I'm out and about for that exact same thing! :)

[@dawsie]

Julie Warren lol that’s so true you never know what you come across that would convert to 1/12 lol

[@dawsie]

Julie Warren lol that’s so true you never know what you come across that would convert to 1/12 lol

[@1961Moppie]

The cutting list has disappeared for this cot. Does anyone have it?

[@JulieWarren]

The cutting list is shown at the start of the video, after I show you the tools and materials needed.

[@1961Moppie]

@@JulieWarren Thanks

[@ian1957ruth]

Please by Any chance you could post a PDF cutting list?

[@JulieWarren]

I'm not sure how I would do that...?

[@ian1957ruth]

If you type the cutting list into a word type program then save as a PDF then link it in your show notes. I also think you can do the same on FB.

[@JulieWarren]

I have the PDF, but there's no way of attaching anything in the notes. If you pause on the cutting list, you should be able to do a screen print.

[@ian1957ruth]

Thank you That is what I did.

[@TamsCraftsAndMore]

For some reason the cut list is too fuzzy for me to read

[@JulieWarren]

How are you watching? I've just had a look at it, and it looks ok on my PC. Is anybody else having problems with the cutting list?

[@TamsCraftsAndMore]

On my pc will check it on my phone

[@TamsCraftsAndMore]

Look good on my phone must be my computer. Thanks for responding

[@georgecunningham9175]

I was recently gifted a commercially made cot, but it is nowhere near as nice as your piece...I can see that mine will be relegated to the "attic" and replaced when time permits!

[@JulieWarren]

I do that too! I'm glad you're enjoying the projects.
