DIY Miniature Violin Tutorial 🎻

[@beccaww6154]

Thumbs up if you think she should make a full music studio!!

[@sweetcanada17]

ThisPenguinLovesHockey tho - a full orchestra! :)

[@josephinechen-wilson1142]

ThisPenguinLovesHockey tho definitely an orchestra!

[@nicoleoelfke4553]

Yes!!!!

[@BassoonReedWater]

Or a string quartet!

[@cameronfink7325]

As a strings player myself, I like this a lot. I don't play violin, but the amount of detail that you managed to fit in the violin is just incredible. Well done

[@carolynconway8937]

AHHH! the accuracy and detail!!! I play violin, and all the terminology, the size and shapes! IT'S ALL SO ACCURATE! DO YOU PLAY?

[@monicherrie]

It doesn't have a chinrest tho. But I swear it looks amazing and I adore how it was made with inexpensive materials :)

[@professorphoenixia1245]

Carolyn Conway There's no chinrest, but other than that it's fine :D

[@cameronfink7325]

FlyingCatsandGlitter isn't the chin rest optional?

[@texknight67]

I wondered the same thing when she was making the guitar but violin terminology is more obscure than that of a guitar. I'd be surprised to find out she isn't a musician.

[@monicherrie]

Cameron Fink im not sure... but I dont think I'll be comfortable playing without a chinrest >3

[@ohvice]

So THAT'S how Mr. Krabs got such a small violin...

[@_dancedance]

As a string player myself (viola, it's like a low violin) I can say this is very accurate! I love the little teeny-tiny details, especially the bow! The only thing that I could say is that there isn't a chin rest, but besides that, it's amazing! Keep up your awesome work.

[@Zarai_Numbers]

Oh, boo hoo. Let me play you a sad song on the world's smallest violin. * Starts playing music * ~Mr Krabs

[@airahfuji]

first thing I looked for in the comments section 😂

[@Marhathor]

Exactly what I did...

[@spencerbowman4119]

Idk how I ended up here, or why I watched 3 videos already, but I like it. It would be so cool to have like a mini guitar center type shop/ displays for all of them!

[@TheSquaretoSpare]

That's such a great idea! I'm so inspired to create just that! :D

[@spencerbowman4119]

The Square to Spare I got the notifications on In case you actually get the chance to do that 😁 if not, just keep doin what you’re doing, it’s awesome to see how accurate and detailed you can get these tiny instruments and things!

[@tomgobear]

Oh, that reference from playing the smallest violin XD

[@graceadk1934]

I love how she's showing us how to make mini violins and there's violin music in the background

[@radhikasrivastav5062]

For anyone planning to make this violin, I am sharing my experience of making a mini Guitar. It didn't turn out like the one in the video but it still looks pretty fantastic. here are the problems that I encountered:- 1. joining/pasting the popsicle sticks is really difficult. probably because the quality of my sticks was not good enough. 2. the sticks keep breaking 3. the coffee stirrers are not very flexible and they did not hold the shape. Ultimately I had to stuff the guitar body with clay. 4.making holes for the strings to pass is really difficult. And sticking on the tuning pins is also terrible! I have no idea, how she does it! 😄 I cut my hand a million times making this. Anybody who tries to make this, you already know what you might have to face. Be prepared! 😄

[@aheckinduck2946]

Did you soak the coffee stirs in water? She said that that makes them flexible.

[@eatnbypeasoup]

Yeah I tried soaking them for three days. Boiling them etc and they just break or don't get sharp enough curves to work. I'm using ribbon rather than rubber bands but it shouldn't make that much of a difference

[@radhikasrivastav5062]

Statisfhyic boiled them for hours! 😂

[@ShulaSMC]

Radhika Shrivastav, I know what you're talking about, I did the mini guitar as a gift for my boyfriend. She make's it look super easy (I think it's because she's so talented 🤗) but it was really (REALLY) hard... At the end the diy nightmare was worth it, because my boyfriend was fascinated.

[@StrackDrackSDW]

This makes me want to make tiny props for a doll house I don't even own. You are an artist and don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

[@eszterberegszaszi-gaal6927]

your work is amazing but the best part is that you actually looked after it, learnt about it and made a really lifelike violin(except the rest:)). i often see really horrible violin illustrations and miniatures and i'm so glad that there is someone who is not too lazy to make a proper one! congratulations and thank you!:)) (violinist here😄)

[@katalyna_vanilla6296]

Eszter Beregszászi-Gaál it’s missing the chin rest tho

[@CelestialDraconis]

Could you please consider making a lute? It's a type of guitar they used back in the medieval era.

[@E--Drop]

Don't know why this was in my recommendations. ...But at least youtube did something right for once

[@berry186]

ikr, lol.

[@faithlynn1028]

This is the most healing video I seen on KZbin, I feel peaceful and happy to see this.

[@m0t0pr1ncess]

I get so happy when I get a notification from your channel ^-^ P.S. I was actually thinking of making a mini musical instrument for my music teacher, I think she will like it, and your tutorials are just great ^-^

[@BazzFromOz]

FYI that music is Johann Pachelbel - Canon in D Major (aka Pachelbel's Canon)

[@Hydratiun]

[@gabest1651]

This is incredible!! 😍

[@RobynWright-f1g]

Oh gee Cath, you are amazing. I feel like your brain must never shut down while thinking up new things for your channel. Now all I have to do is to try and make something instead of watching your videos. Another thing that I like is that you use paddle pop sticks which are so readily available for us novices to use. And if it doesn’t work out, it’s no big deal. You can start again and it hasn’t cost a lot of money. Your creations certainly don’t look cheap. Maybe there’s hope for me yet. Cheers Robyn ❤😊

[@HulloAlice]

This is amazing omg. Subscribing right away, i'm so impressed!!

[@bleedofcherries]

This is absolutely amazing. So much attention to detail and perfect execution!

[@AshleyThorntonTrotzuk]

Oh my word this is AMAZING!!! I was looking for ideas on how I could carve a keepsake viola from a block of bass wood for my nephew's graduation gift and happened upon your video. THIS IS SOOOO COOL!!!! It is definitely tricky and involved but with the steps you show I am super tempted to try it! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your talents!!!

[@evelynh8669]

I was thinking about the same thing.

[@TrangNguyen-jl4os]

Yeah I also want to ask her 'bout that. Well I think it will look better if it has the chin rest, so it will be perfect and fully done for the violin

*gets thread* Me: *traveling through time and space*

[@MHS-us1qv]

In the process of making this right now. Warning to anyone who tries: - The middle of the violin with the delicately pointed ends is extremely difficult to get right. Went through two popsicle sticks trying to get it to have a delicate curve. - Make scores into the crevices and be delicate. If you manage to split along the grain of the wood your violin is toast, and cutting against the grain is a lot more difficult but much less risky. - Don't be discouraged if your coffee stirrer doesn't line up with the wooden top or bottom. You can soak it again (as it's banded) and that will soften it up so you can adjust the rubber bands and make it fit better. - SANDING IS YOUR FRIEND. It will really elevate the final product. Fold a piece of sandpaper in half and rub the thin end in the grooves to fit up the shape. Don't be too rough when holding it otherwise you may push the top/bottom part into the cavity.

[@zenamorgan1754]

Lovely. ....love the way you pay attention to small details 😍

[@xGlitchedSkullx]

Ashwini Sendevahyuu Yes, she might pay attention to small details. However, she missed a HUGE detail which basically tells you its a violin and not a cello. She didn't make the chin rest! Without it, this mini 'violin' is a cello.

[@thefaeriealtar]

yes!!! you have pachelbels canon as background!!!!

[@kazcul6317]

Annoying to Cello players...if you know what I mean. If you don't, then search "Pachelbels canon Cello part" and you will know what I mean. Better yet, watch this vid. kzbin.info/www/bejne/roeUno1nd89-l5o

[@LizardXWizard]

Does she play violin? Because if not she really did her research! Bravo this looks great! Its incredible that people out there can figure out how to make things like this on their own, cause I know I couldn't.

The chin rest and shoulder rest

THIS ISN'T A VIOLIN OR EVEN A VIOLA... THIS IS A CELLO. I know because there is no shoulder rest or chin rest. I play the cello, so I know what this is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(I GUESS it COULD be a bass, but the shape isn't correct, so it is a Cello.)
