How To Build A Miniature Hutch With No Wood

[@Witchat1and70]

THANK you for the tip for trimming the counter top. I am rubbish at measuring and I’ve been really struggling with making things fit. Your little tip has just made it SO easy for my mathematically-challenged mind! I’m only 6 minutes in, so sure I will learn even more tricks from your video, but I wanted to express my gratitude right away. Thank you.

[@barbaraness4507]

27:33 I love the way you’re making it. It looks like a hutch made back in the 1700’s before they had a bunch of fancy tools and supplies. The imperfections make it look more realistic.

Everyone of her videos has the sound of chirping frog’s. Oddly comforting.

[@dodieyates4186]

I love the black marker down the lines idea!! Yesss!!

[@puppydood]

24.20. Best mini construction tip EVER!!!! ❤

[@PossumLady8262]

I LOVED this tutorial Sharon!!! I'm on a fixed budget and this helped out financially more than you know! I have about three cereal boxes that are nearly empty, so I'm going to put the cereal into Mason jars in order to try this amazing method!! I did see Ara Bently use cardboard cereal boxes for shingles and siding on her Addams Family build...pretty darn clever too. 😁😊💖👌👍💖💚

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

oh my goodness, thank you so much for sharing that. I totally understand the fixed budget thing. When I first ventured into this world of building it myself it was because I couldn't afford much. I have 3 kids, at that time I started into dollhouses I was on my own with 2 little ones and I wanted to give them a dollhouse but the prices were out of this world let alone getting furniture to put in one! So I built one and that became their most favorite thing they ever had. Those precious memories remain my driving force today. It always touches my heart to read a comment like yours, you made my day today, thank you!

I know it’s been three years since this video, but I just wanted to say that I’d like to see more miniature type videos. It really does take practice, and I’m still trying. Lol

[@Kenkire]

Just found these. Thank you so much for this! I have been wanting to make things like this for so long with no idea how. You are so awesome!

[@oliviasaiz945]

What a great job you did, came out so antique looking. Love it 🥰

[@agooddaytocraft]

I love it! Thank you for sharing how you made it. I like the original yellow one cuz it has an old world (or another world, haha) sort of charm. This one has a more modern or Craftsman sort of appeal. I love them both. Well done.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

oh my, thank you! I actually love the looks of wonky way more than anything with straight edges, haha I know those of us with that wonky eye are few, it's always lovely to hear from another ;-) Thank you so much, your comment went straight to my heart!

[@joannecarroll5504]

Fabulous as always, Sharon :)

[@girl4granted]

I just love you videos ( on both channels). I just finished making the tree stump mouse house for my daughter and I busy making the furniture. You have given me so many ideas! Unfortunately I can't paint anything as all the art shops are closed during lockdown but at least I can still make chipboard and do a little bit each day. It is keeping the blues away.

[@grannygrimson]

Sharon your furniture is absolutely delightful! Each piece has such a rustic charm to it, as if Gnomey had lovingly handcrafted each one himself! I really love that it is all constructed out of recycled or inexpensive materials that are easy to obtain. I tend to go back and rematch and reread all of the loving comments. You have become an inspiration to so many people! I appreciate so much each video that you post❤️💜

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

oh my goodness, thank you! It's morning here in my part of the world and what a wonderful way to start the day, reading your lovely comment

[@madzabinga8382]

You are so talented and crafty! I am so impressed with this sweet little hutch! If only it were so easy to make a human sized one for my own kitchen! Ha!

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

haha, this little one looks a lot like the one in my kitchen.. I drew a lot of inspiration from it, aside from glass doors, lol it's the same color and one of my favorite pieces of furniture in my house!

[@BejaVue]

You are both talented and very smart!!

[@ediehumphrey4452]

I love this cabinet, and your video is fantastic so easy to follow. I'm excited about trying to make this for my granddaughter thank you for sharing.

[@pennymerideth3650]

This is awesome! I'm putting the final touches on a room box today that I've been working on for 6 weeks. I am so looking forward to getting back to my tree house project! I can't wait to build this hutch! Thanks so much for sharing the construction details with us.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

your room box sounds amazing! Have fun finishing it up and getting back to your tree house. You're so welcome, I hope you enjoy building one. Happy crafting!

[@elly7826]

Thank you so much!!! This was a wonderful gift to all of us!!!

[@dukedlf]

so many good little tips in this. Thank you! subscribed.

[@reneeallen3569]

Very awesome as usual!!! I’m making a fairy house for my nieces and you are the inspiration for all. Thanks for your videos!

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thank you and you're welcome! I'm excited to hear of your fairy house, enjoy every minute of building

[@deppysofio7998]

Amazing job I love your tutorials!!!!!Greetings from Greece 💜 🙌 💞 💙

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thank you very much!

[@sarahlongshore2605]

It looks just like a wooden mini ! Great job. And great tutorial. I am looking forward to more!!!

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thank you very much!

[@MicheleRBrown]

Totally awesome I love it

[@RaynorTheShyLion]

The technique you used for scoring the back board would also be great to make a curved piece, and then just fill the gaps with the wood filler. Love your videos!

[@patriciadinardo4074]

I made the hutch. It came really cute. I wish I had measured the miniature dishes I had I probably would of made it a little larger. And I must get the wax you used to hold them in place. I used gel dots but they are to thick. Thank you for sharing. You are amazing.

[@debrapryor5350]

You have done a very good job

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thank you very much :)

[@karinpellaers6897]

Thanks again Sharon your tutorials are always so well explained and helpful. Just love the little hutch, looking forward to seeing what you do next. 😍👍

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thank you so much! I'm so happy you enjoyed the video, that means a lot

[@sheilaackers3854]

Love this before the shelves as a settle.

[@jorgemadrid763]

Excelent tutorial, thank you so much. I’m gonna try to make my own one 👏👏👏

[@GrammyAllen]

Have you done any things like this where the drawers and cabinets actually work? I'm thinking of doing this for my granddaughters who love miniatures. It'd be fun to get dishes and silverware and have somewhere for them to be stored.

[@barbaraness4507]

I find it funny sometimes how so many crafters want things to look worn, or a little dirty because I’ve been needing to clean my kitchen cabinets to get rid of that look. Lol

[@aliloucreations1817]

Fabulous work, I’m loving these videos 😍😍😍😘

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

I'm so so glad, thank you!

[@debbieboring3422]

Thank you for doing such a good job on your explanation. The last part that you were worried about at the top. My mother had a hutch and there was a quarter round at the same place you put your last little piece. So that is well with in keeping with the real thing. Thanks again can't wait to try this out.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

ohhh that's awesome to hear that it's a real life solution too! Thanks for taking the time to comment, I appreciate it. Have fun when you do build one, keep me posted :)

[@silverpleiades1]

"The hutch door measures a little bit better than an inch." I thought I was the only one that measured that way. Lol : ) I really enjoy watching your craft videos. I just subbed.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

Lol thank you so much!

[@dianebrewster1186]

In the uk we call that a cabinet very clever idea

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thanks!

[@conniedevroy5591]

Where The Gnomes Live I just love everything you do. I too am a miniature fanatic. I would like to know if you make your own gnomes or do you purchase them. I love your tutorials. You make it so easy to follow. Thank you so much!

[@lorremortimer2183]

Thanks for the great video. For candle I used a q-tip stick and wow! the wick is not for the faint of heart! Tricky, lol.

[@rebeccajones2077]

If you used a pair of miter shears you can make thoes diagonal cut perfectly

[@francisortiz6762]

HI SHARON I JUST FOUND YOU AND LOVE ALL YOUR WORK. WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU WATCH YOU MAKE A KITCHEN WOOD BURNING STOVE. I SAW ONE ON YOUR TREE HOUSE. LOVE YOUR WORK AND PRAY YOU NEVER GET SICK AGAIN.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

ohh thank you so much, I sure appreciate that! I did make a little wood stove on video, not a cook stove tho, just a wood stove here kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5bQi4KKaLWDgcU

[@itaomahony502]

I love your mistakes, gives me confidence. Love your work.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

Yay! I’m so glad to hear that 😊

[@suecox2308]

Such a good tutorial--lots of very helpful tips--and a very appealing project. I checked out your chipboard tutorial, too--so useful!

[@rodadams8422]

Absolutely beautiful you have so much patients but so so worth it 🌷🌻👍

[@debrapryor5350]

Love it I didn't know it had been 2 years but I'm just getting in to all of the youtub stuff but. I love it

[@YvonneG]

I just love this, i am going to try making one. thank you for sharing.

[@Ammiel7]

I use this cardboard for furniture most of the time But Ive never made it, so I think Ill have a try The cupboard is so cute

[@RequiemDream]

Hello. Can you also please show how to make a little fridge? 🙂

[@christinenalle8810]

I found you when you were mentioned by Ara of Bentley House Minis. She was making a cardboard house and furniture for all of us who get out rarely or those who can’t get out because of COVID-19. Her furniture has weeby-wobby, curvy-q edges inside, just great for your wonderful creative creatures. Have never seen mentioned but I use ribbon as hinges and glue the hinge shapes on top of that.....just me.....I am to curious to not have Everything Open...lol.

[@jennyzane2164]

This is so cute! Thank you for sharing!

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thanks for taking the time to comment, I appreciate it!

[@BubsyMupsy]

I love all your works! I feel bit intimidated to try doing them myself, but my tiny one wants a doll house... So i guess I'll have to gain courage and try crafting something myself! Are those furnitures suitable for Barbie dolls?

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thanks so much! I'm not a professional builder by any means so I believe you could totally follow along with this video and make the hutch without problems. No, this hutch and all my furniture pieces, would be much too small for a Barbie. In miniatures there's a way to tell the size by using a "scale". I don't actually use a scale, I go by eye and what will fit my own characters, but my pieces are close to the 1/12th scale. The Barbie scale is 1/6 which is also called the "Playscale"". The top 2 in this list explain it perfectly, it will help you in the future when looking for Barbie things online www.thesprucecrafts.com/dolls-house-and-miniatures-scale-2365457

Thank you so much

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

you're welcome :)

[@jamescarryl9690]

That's a very nice hutch. Can U make a high chair. And a child's training potty. I do like your series, and construction methods . I am working on an idea for an old Western scene. Aproxatemly 3 or 4 Old buildings. Mostly all will be false fronts. The buildings will be only 2 inches deep Thanks for sharing. Take care

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thanks! I have many things on my to-do list, I'm building a gnome home and filling it up with furniture. At this moment I don't have any baby gnomes needing those 2 things but in the future it might happen as the gnome family grows :) Your project sounds amazing, have fun!

[@rebeccajones2077]

If you used a scribe to score the back it comes out real nice ...and if you used miter shears your diagonal cut would come out perfect

[@ascensiongarrido545]

Precioso!
