Tree Dollhouse Part 30 Fabric Rugs DIY and Updates

[@lorizeglin3103]

Love this video! Never thought of using upholstery fabric for making rugs. Thank you for sharing this great idea

[@susansmart8086]

This is the first time I’ve seen any of this project and I really like the proportion of your new beams.

[@jansfield5314]

I am recently new to your channel, and I just love what you are creating! Its just magical! I love the rugs! I love everything you are doing! I just love fairies, gnomes and fun!

[@kimlivengood5916]

I have been power watching these videos every chance I get. I do things the same way, "just as they come to me" LOL Sometimes it works out, & sometimes it does not. So I think that's why I enjoy watching so much. Well, that & how sweetly you explain everything. Thank you for so many great ideas & for admitting when something may not be your idea. Most things I do has been inspired by something I have seen someone else do. I may do it differently with the same outcome, but I always want to give credit to whoever inspired me. And I love that the majority of crafters like to inspire others. I know I do. And can tell you do as well. Thanks so much for sharing. Look forward to watching more. Hope you & yours are good & healthy. TYFS

Love how these turned out. I have kept the raw selvage of all my fabrics and used them for mixed media art and jewelry designs, but I will definitely be using it for my next mini project as well. Love all your techniques. ❤

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

ohhh mixed media art is fabulous! Thank you for the kind words :)

[@chrismclellanart]

Wow the one with the tea stain fringe is amaaaasing

[@fluffyspit]

Two tips…if you leave your needle down whilst sewing and turning your fabric, the fabric turns much easier. I couldn’t see if you were already doing this so please excuse me if you were.x Second tip…if you iron the paper on the back of sample fabrics it loosens the glue, peel off when still hot and keep heating it til you get all the paper off. Love your channel.x

[@lostinks]

I absolutely LOVE the bricks showing. So creative and a joy to watch. Thank you for sharing.

[@ginagaladriel]

The new beams are lovely!!! they look good before, but now they look even more awesome!

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thanks so much :)

[@cheriwhitley8385]

Loove loove loove the rugs!!!!..I never saw a pattern for the crochet ones so these are easy and look great !!loove the larger beams..never thought u could out do gnomies tree but u r on your way..adding the frame around that opening and the lights on the stairs and all the lil added things really makes it better n better..can’t wait to see the lil creatures that will be jumping on the beds and living here...eeeekkk.lso excited!!!

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

I'm so excited too! Last night as I was turning off the lights I could picture little creatures laying their tiny heads on the pillow, lol I almost said "Good night!" oh boy.. I might be losing it, just a little :D Thank you for the kind words, straight to my heart :)

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

I forgot, yes those crochet rugs will hopefully make it into this series as well, those will need a bit more time. To crochet them so they lay flat takes a bit of effort... I want to also do rag rugs! I think rag rugs would be adorable but I think these fabric ones are the easiest and fastest way. It's just awesome to have options

[@cheriwhitley8385]

Have u done rag rugs b4?..I loove the look of them and want them in my own house..I plan to learn how to but it’s on my list ...way down on the list now that I’m soo into this treehouse..oh well..maybe I can work it in next winter hehe..it’s 66 degrees today,was 72 yesterday!..a lil early for spring but I’m not complaining!!..then I’ll have spring fever and have to share my outside time with inside working on the house..sigh,...

[@QueenBeasDsgn]

ohhhh rag rugs would be adorable too!!!!!

[@BejaVue]

I love these rugs and I also really love the color of that floor!!

[@Happycatkn]

Oh my goodness! The detail is so perfect!

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thanks so much!

[@estherrouillard7122]

Those carpets looks great!! Its so cozy, the stove, the carpets and beds, drapes, exposed beams and brick wall, i totally agree, im in love with that room too!! 😍

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thank you so much!

[@karakreations1103]

Hi Sharon, a tip for your rugs the side that you don't want to fray you can melt the fabric by running a wood burning pen or a smoldering pen along the side, if the fabric is cotton it will not melt but any other kind works wonders I use it on satin ribbons it gives me a clean finish that never frays.you inspired me to make my own tree on the wall, wish me luck :)

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

ohhh cool, the best of luck and have lots of fun with your tree! Cool tip for the rugs :)

[@recoveringsoul755]

There is a product called Fray Check sold where fabrics are sold, liquid you put on to prevent fraying. I used to use clear bail polish on my stockings all the time though

[@littleredwagonstudio]

I love the rugs!! your joyful giggle is so refreshing!! there are so many things out there that have been out there for ages and I too try to give a shout out, at least on where I seen it and unless its specific like your channel for example....its hard and I would never want to take credit for others work either!! xoxo stephie

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

ohhh I know! You're so awesome.. I feel it's important to do that, especially now in today's world with this wonderful way we can share and reach so many via blogs, fb and youtube. It's a great thing to be inspired by others and say so, there's nothing wrong with that and it doesn't take anything away from us at all. Community is a wonderful thing. Thank you for the kind words, I so appreciate it

[@karinpellaers6897]

Thanks again Sharon I'm always eagerly waiting for your next video makes me so happy to see what your up to next. I'm still working to get my tree house finished which can be quite challenging because I work full time. But I now feel so inspired by your new series I want to make another tree house that's more like yours. I also intend on posting my finished tree house on your FB page 😀.!!!💜

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

that's awesome, have loads of fun. I'm looking forward to your photos!

[@suellenmoore3840]

You can use burlap frayed for the trim. Then use another piece on back side. Denim works good too for a frayed edge.

[@joannecarroll5504]

I love the changes Sharon, it's so much cosier now.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thanks!

[@annemoran4818]

hi from Ireland first i have to say your a fantastic artist and a brilliant teacher ive watched all your videos for hours and learned so much from you ive tryed a lot of your creations but not near as good as yours thank you so much for sharing

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words.. I'm sure everything you do is turning out as good or even better! We tend to be our own worse judge. All the best to you!

[@debbralehrman5957]

This looks so cool. The rugs are such a good idea. These can very costly to buy.

[@artandminis7777]

Sooooo cute! Love the whole room. It is so cozy in there.

[@Foxiepawstotti]

Oh wow! This is gorgeous! I am so glad I found your channel! I actually wish I was small enough to live There!

[@sky7wisecrystalrain819]

They are adorable! You are so creative Thank you so much for sharing your talent!

[@mastersadvocate]

Oooooooh Sharon, I just love those rugs that you made!!! I have a couple of old waistcoats that have their fronts made of fabric very like the stuff you made your rugs out of! I'll never be able to wear them again, as I've grown too big for them, so... ~Janet in Canada :-)

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

I love that sort of recycling, it's super fun and satisfying. Have fun! And thank you for the lovely comments, I truly appreciate each one.

[@Foxiepawstotti]

Your videos are magical!

[@Life_of_Doll-Crafter]

[@julieboley6193]

I love what you're doing here. I really look forward to your posts. I think I'm addicted to your channel. lol I've been waiting to see how you did your brick wall by the stairs. Will you be posting a video showing how you did it?

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

thank you! Yes, I will be.. don't know what video will be next but it will come up in the next few for sure. Thanks for asking!

[@craftlikeaduck]

[@stuchly1]

Now where does one find such an amazing thrift store with such gorgeous scrap fabrics... :D

[@barbaragrace1992]

Hi, you could use a fabric glue on the edges at the back to help prevent fraying if you like.

[@meganjohnson9540]

So cute! Thank you so much for sharing!!

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

You are so welcome!

[@savoy6100]

Beautiful. Thank you

[@wandasinclair3748]

This is my next project. Thank u.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

You’re welcome and have fun!

[@GrumpetteJV]

That's jacquard and/or gobelin fabric. 🖤

[@franckelatter9829]

Great idea, I am going to check out our local Upholsterers for scraps, wish me luck! Francke from Brisbane

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

ohhh, best of luck! I wish I was there, that sounds like a fun trip :)

[@franckelatter9829]

U R very welcome to accompany me, we could also do over a few op shops as well, its only about an 20 hour flight, but our Op shops r fairly expensive lately.

[@jessicamckay9227]

I think I'm in love with your room too

[@Life_of_Doll-Crafter]

By the way, the way you talk is so cute.😃

[@GypsieT17]

Thease are amazing 👏😍

[@QueenBeasDsgn]

the package of lights... i love those... and instead of tape to tone it down.... do you think nail polish would work? then you can add a touch of pink hue or blue or yellow or whatever you want to shadow???

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

ohhh super cool idea, I never would have thought of that. I'll give it a try sometime, thanks!

[@denadonaldson7259]

I love your videos

[@designedbymeka4520]

Love your work

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

Thank you so much 😀

[@franckelatter9829]

Probably a dab of fabric glue or hot glue will stop fraying on the corners Francke from Brisbane

[@Life_of_Doll-Crafter]

I’m making rugs out of upholstery sample books I got.🥰

[@juliegogola4647]

I wonder, where's the video on how you made the stove/woodburner? I really LOVE this and the other gnome home/tree house. I would also LOVE to see how you made the castle that you made in the past.

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

@@juliegogola4647 click on my channel name and type in the search bar “stove” and any video that have with stove in the title should come up. I’d link it directly for you but I’m on my phone, if you can’t find it I can link it once I’m on my computer again. I’m currently travelling so unable to atm.

[@RavenLeFaye]

Sorry if this has been answered before in videos or comments - but for the wood pieces stained with instant coffee AFTER being installed (like the ceiling beams) how do you seal them?

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

I still spray them if I can, if not, then I run my brush, dipped in sealer, very quickly across and only one stroke. It has worked for me, although you will get some stain on your brush so I would pour a bit of the sealer out of the can and into a container.

[@ZanyProductionz]

didn't you mention in another video that you had to take this apart (destroying it in the process) because you needed to move it and it was too big? This could have been used in a stop motion movie!

[@lindaday3953]

Where do you get your material

[@toyoy78]

Amazing!

[@lindawill5253]

What is your other channel?

[@mothership1849]

Which video shows how you did the exposed brick wall?

[@WhereTheGnomesLive]

I haven't gotten that video up yet

[@mothership1849]

Where The Gnomes Live ok. Thank you.

[@jennavee0113]

This is brilliant! Thank you!
