You amaze me with your talents.

Thank you so much for your kind comment, and thank you once again for watching. ☺️

Excellent! Thank you for sharing. It's exactly what I want to put in my tree dollhouse. I subscribed. I can't wait to see what else I can steal. 😂

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Super - really glad it’s been useful! A tree dolls house sounds wonderful!

[@tinynina76]

Wow. Very nice! It really looks authentic. I believe they did use animal fat, tallow, which gave it a creamy color. It looks nice. 🕯

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you, and thank you for the info! If I make anymore candles, I’ll definitely make them a creamier colour!

[@susanamann1124]

Good job

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you ⭐️☺️

You saved the day Little Mouse as my chandelier needed candles. It’s a bit of an old light fitting and I could not think how to make candles. I tried tiny dowel, plastic tubing etc but then saw your idea of adding softened wax and the effect is lovely. The addition of the wire wick made the job much easier. So thrilled to bits. On today with tankards as chandelier took over my spare time and then visitors and life got in the way.

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

It sounds like you’re doing lots of miniature makes! Have lots of fun making your tankards. ☺️

[@donnahollins5071]

Thank you. My hall now has a wonderful chandelier. Can't wait to see your tapestry too

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Fabulous! This has really made me smile 🤗

[@donnahollins5071]

I'm happy that it made you happy. I've solved my barrel conundrum by gluing the wooden tops from cholula hot sauce bottles, available in the uk, filling the sides with air dry clay, bit of a sand and then paint. I used a metallic pen for the barrel hoops. My husband loves chilli and I'm a craft hoarder so I knew the tops would come in handy one day. They also make wonderful cauldrons . And I've finished my tudor rose rug and am now cross stitching a seat cover for my tudor settle. I can't wait for your next project. You are very talented

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

@@donnahollins5071 Oh wowweee - that all sounds fantastic!! I feel like I’ve not made much for my dolls house recently because I’ve been very busy. My tapestry really isn’t coming along very well 😅. Your items all sound fantastic!

[@marygatdula2744]

​@donnahollins5071 I'd really like to see the barrels! I love the Cholula hot sauce (also available in the U.S.), and I also save the lids. LOL I've seen someone make a miniture tea kettle from one I wish I could remember whom! Your house sounds fantastic.

[@donnahollins5071]

Thank you so much. It's terrible being a crafty hoarder isn't it ? Everything comes in handy eventually.And isn't our Little Mouse doing an amazing job !

[@elizabethmcgrath6198]

I enjoy watching your work thank you.

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you so much! ⭐️

Reference your lost glue cap. I found that the screw on caps from plug in air fresheners fit on glue bottles. I now save them. Saves $$$ from dried up glue. ( I use glade on my becan's 3n1 and air fresh for tacky glue bottles)

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you for the recommendation! I do wonder where the lid went because I’ve still not found it!!

[@swearenginlawanda]

@@thelittlemouseshouse mine usually break. I tried the air fresheners cap and was surprised.

[@vickinoeske1154]

The jewelry tassel was a perfect solution for hanging the chandelier. Definitely, jewelry pliers will make your work easier, and they are not expensive. The chandelier is ideal for the house.❤

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Yes, definitely! I’m not sure why I’ve not bought them as I know they’re not too pricey… I think I just feel like I won’t use them very often!!

[@vickinoeske1154]

@@thelittlemouseshouse You'd be surprised how often you will reach for them.

[@billyboo73]

Ooooh I love this thank you... Perfect for my witchy cottage ❤

[@bonnieharris4538]

​@thelittlemouseshouse absolutely gorgeous house you're obviously very talented. Just a suggestion/ thought. If you had or could get hold of, a black/ grey eyeshadow, would that not make relatively convincing soot, wiped on? Or even perhaps sort of flicked on?... I believe it's called spattering?

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

@@bonnieharris4538 Thank you for the suggestion! I tend to find that chalk pastels and eyeshadow are quite similar so I’m not sure if it would stay on.. but worth a try next time! Thank you for taking the time to leave an idea ☺️

[@AnneAndersonFoxiepaws]

It's lovely hearing purring, I really like pigeons cooing too, nature has such lovely animal sounds, they are brilliant for destressing. This chandelier is perfect! I have got totally sidetracked in my own miniature project. I am making a little farmhouse to go beside the bigger Tudor House kit. It's a kit too that I converted to be a farmhouse, it's not completely correct but once I put some thatch on it will look more like its from the middle ages (hopefully lol). It's like a bedroom upstairs and a kitchen downstairs so we will see, I am not going to make it fancy, the animals and the people pretty much both live In the farmhouse.

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Oh wow - that sounds so exciting!! I can imagine what it will look like!

[@carolrayk]

Fantastic chandleer. Jewelry findings are so handy in projects like this. Love the way your Tudor house is taking shape.

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. I’ve become a collector of scraps of jewellery now hehe.

Great work again. I sometimes use birthday cake candles, you can shave them down to your required size too. You certainly have a lot of patience. Thanks xxx

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Ooo that’s a great idea! Thank you for sharing the idea!

[@msamelienp]

Very nice. I love it!

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you so much!

[@pamelaj92]

A hint to make putting on the jump rings easier, they are meant to open by twisting them sideways not by pulling the loops open. You hold the ring next to the opening on each side then twist. And to close you twist the opening closed. Never pull them open and push them closed.

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you for your advice! I’ll keep it in mind next time. These ones were so old that some of them wouldn’t move in any direction hehe!

[@teresahickey4380]

It looks marvelous ❤

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you so much!

[@bethanderson397]

It looks great!! Love it! 😃

[@cynthiajuarez5855]

I think it for you birthday candles cuz they have been different colors you could probably find some next time you make another chandelier for the holders of the paper straws or straws plastic ones they would work just as good thank you for sharing your project with everyone

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thanks for the suggestions!

[@craftingwithaileen]

Your house is stunning!

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you so much! I feel very lucky to have found it sitting in a recycling centre!

[@patriciagraves752]

I would have used birthday cake candles. You are much more clever than I.

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Hehe, you’re not the first person that’s suggested birthday candles! I think it’s a good idea! ☺️

[@dianavalenzuela5186]

Que lindo ❤

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you!! 🌟

[@heathermartinez8640]

Loved how this turned out! I think using real candle wax as opposed to clay makes them look like they were used in the house!

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you! Yes, I felt it was important to make sure that they looked like they’d been melting!

Such a sweet project! I've been enjoying going through the progress and your ingenuity is so wonderful, poppy heads, brilliant! I would have never thought of something so special, wonderful idea and the result is quite fabulous. This little chandelier is quite delightful and how lucky were you to happen to have the perfect chain for it 😉. My only suggestion I would put up would be to lose the lobster clasp as it really detracts from the hard work you have already put into this hall, just simply replace it with one of those round rings you cut off the bracelet chain, I truly think it would go a long way in keeping what you've already accomplished more cohesive - the devil's in the details after all. Either way, really stunning and marvelous ingenuity you have used throughout so far, will be interesting to continue to watch it grow!

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you for the suggestion, and for taking the time to leave a comment. Really glad you’re enjoying the videos. ☺️

Mix a very, very small dab of yellowish/ brown oil paint to burning candle to dye to a bees wax colour

[@thelittlemouseshouse]

Thank you for your suggestion! I’ll keep it in mind for my next candles. ☺️
