Walnuts and Minature Needle Felting

In this video I show you how I made a minature needle felted animal/mouse, tucked up snuggly in his walnut shell. I show you how I stuck the hinge on the shell and how I created the mouse inside. Hope you enjoy this video.

Many skills much cute

[@windydawn58]

Can you tell me what sze tiny hinges you are using to put on the walnut shell. And also where you got them? Thanks.

[@faerietailsandfables13]

I order the walnuts from amazon and then cut them on a scroll saw, or carefully cracked them open. I then use dolls house miniature hinges also from amazon. Very strong glue and masking tape to hold the walnut halves together whilst sticking the hinges on.

Muy tierno !!! Graciasss !!! 😊🎉

[@MariaLeon-hs4tt]

I love this. Totally making these for my kids this year. Wondering what size hinge that is?

[@faerietailsandfables13]

Hi, they are dolls house miniature hinges from amazon, glad you like the idea!

[@brigidaroberti743]

C'est adorable

[@ValKob]

I want to try this!!

[@marygatdula2744]

Adorable!

[@faerietailsandfables13]

Thank you

[@giulianabarciocco]

Hi! Nice video, I make miniatures just like these but I'm having trouble with the glue I use for the hinge. I want the hinge to be extremely firm. Could you tell me which glue are you using and if it's resistant enough?

[@faerietailsandfables13]

I use gorilla crystal clear glue. It is really firm but you need to make the hinge fit the nut really well so sometimes you might need to bend the corners of the hinge a bit to male them fit flush to the nut. A little sanding on the nut where the hinge goes helps too!

[@EmitteLucem]

Wonderful :-)

[@Dhdhj010]

How can I get those hinges on the walnut shell.. someone please reply!

[@faerietailsandfables13]

You have to tape the two halves of empty shell together so they stay exactly as they should be and then blob the glue carefully on each side so that you get it close enough to the join but not touching it (otherwise you will stick the shell together obviously). then carefully put the hindge (using tweezers perhaps) on to the glue. Leave to dry upright so the hindge doesnt move.
