Awesome! I have great respect for anyone working in that scale. I made dollhouse's dollhouse out of cardstock, put in all the walls and got it all painted and set about making the furniture. I made a tiny sofa out of foam board using an exacto knife to trim and "plane" the bits of foam so it actually looked like a sofa. And that was the end of that. I am in total awe of anyone who can and has ,1. See what the heck they are working on and 2. the manual dexterity to actually make all those impossibly tiny pieces. That aint me hahaha

I love this Octo Containment Device, Ara! It does indeed have the rustic charm of a child's toy, with the extra twist that only an Addams can devise. Super cute.

I feel you when it comes to taking the amount of glue you use into consideration. I always find myself wiping off access, and even when I do and leave it to dry, it still leaves these shiny spots/streaks on the finished product that drive me crazy 😅

This is awesome! You've inspired me to make my own Addams family mansion and the castle from Edward scissor hands. In the first movie when Wednesday finds out the truth about Fester, she uses the trap door in her room and right when Fester breaks in, you can see her dollhouse.

@@BentleyHouseMinis I will be sure to do that! I happened to walk to the back of Hobby Lobby and noticed one of the dollhouses looked like the Addams family (It wasn't labeled) and then I ran into your videos and started watching the two movies religiously. I debated for about 2 months before I used my 40% off coupon to purchase it. I do have a majority of it built but I stopped so I could work on the inside. I have added a few custom changes and I will be adding more as I go from room to room. The only problem is that the right side and the front of the tower are slightly warped and I didn't notice it until I got it glued together. Thanks again for the inspiration!

I love this little dollhouse! I just recently have been reading about Charles Addams. I have been trying to decide which book I wanted to purchase. I'm going to look for your review of the book on your blog. I watch the original Addams Family from the early black & white episodes on tv. I really loved them then and I still do. The Munsters were on at the same time but I was drawn to the Addams Family along with Bewitched.You did an excellent job on this miniature house. I love how the octopus was exploring the house. Octopi are super intelligent and very curious. Even though Socrates is listed as Wednesday's pet from Charles Addams, I always remember on tv Pugsly playing with it so I thought it was his pet. Homer was her tarantula and Lucifer was her pet lizard. Thank you so much for all of your tutorial videos!!
