Inspiration to get up...

I need to get up and scrap the 2 1/5 of the walls left... Im just not wanting to...

I always go no i need to do this and that but, im the one that my parents are wating on, since it would be easier to spackle/ fix the gouges i put in the walls from scraping! Well i really cant wait to show more of the finished product, all i have righ now is some white flat wall some pokey walls and one ugly floor... Sorry to those who like it :/ i didnt mean to hurt your feel goods...

East and west walls will be like a turquios color,
The ceiling will be a baby blue similiar to this color!
The north and south wall, ( closet and window) small room darker color, so small walls with a dark color cant hurt the feel of the room that much!
And the wood tile block puzzle floor, sorry trying to describe what they are! Similair to this color and look will go onto the floor!

No closet doors but instead curtains will go up to cover it up.


Ive also organized my earring studs that wouldnt fit,( they kept falling off) my new jeweley organizer my sister got me for christmas! Picture of the one i was gifted!
It hangs on the wall or behind your door, very convenent!
The organizer is from lady elegance, wonderful for hanging earrings such as hoops and feathers, knecklaces, bracelets, and rings.
Picture of the framed one i made with a frame, hard yarn block square things from walmart and some white felt from walmart. This was free since i had all the items already in stock! It would have been around $8? Possibly $10 depends on the picture frame and how much yarn block you need and felt!
Well more up dates on the room soon, sorry ive been busy with the room construction, ocd doesnt do well with a messed up living area! Its more important right know... :/

Took a trip!

No minis were boughten.

I have been blogging sorry.. Im not good with the whole holiday/school/ business consept of being s blogger. But, yet im trying!

Any way i have some things to say!
Im redoing my bedroom, i have this texture on my walls that feels like mountains very jagged mountains that really hurts when you scrap you arm on it... Any way i have to water it down to make it soft and then you this scrapping tool to get it off, it only almost a 12x12 room. So at least its smaller then most rooms people have!

After i finish this im going to have my did fix the gouges un the walls ans smooth it out flat in some spots. Them my mom loves to paint," its the cheapest way to change the mood of a room." Two walls chocolate brown and then two walls turquiose and the ceiling a light blue! Also we are going to change the out of date flooring, its a very old looking laminant tile floor, blue and gold.... No so going for a hippie theme.... Any way im also going to get a new closet.. Ok not new but a new set up, like what closet made makes, but my dad probably has to make one since my closet is small and i cant reach every thing, "sort people problems!!"


Im sorry it looks messy, its under construction! :( i hate that, but pictures when its more in progeress with the wall shaved and flattened nicely, then painted and oh i cant wait, it would be easier if i was working on a miniature since well it doesnt take as much work, but it takes way more planning, haha:)

Yep, wizard of oz billplay! Loved the musical! And movie top four movies, alice and wonderland, gremlins, wizard of oz and zombieland! I have zombieland and gremlins in my movie library on the movie stand but, the others im not sure, i want to get them but, my walmart is not so wonderful, it has almost all movies when there on the shelf is the thing, there is nothing on the shelf due to oil pigs... Not a good town to be in, i wanna movie, well i have half of junior year and then senior year left and off the college i can go:) so i should just chill....
The color theme is going to totally change from green and red and ever other color i just decided i wanted in there. Like my cleaning products? Yeah there is my ocd for the blog! I dont share my cleaning items because, well i want them were i can find them, when people use them they will be gone forever in this house!a
I wish you could look at this dresser better, the white looking one, i want to paint it, but my mom said that the paint might just come right back off... I really want to paint the damn thing is gold and well chrome, silver and gold. Do not match in a room.... Just saying, oh thats my college interior designer coming out, thats what i want to be when i go to college!
You have no clue how many pieces the mirror came out of the room in... The people who had this house before us. Well they thought it was a wonderful idea to i dont know, liquid nails the mirror onto the wall. So it took a lot of brakeing and prying to get it off.

By the way we went shopping for a new bedding in bed bath and beyond! Wow never been in one, but i know im going back when i get my apartment! My top and bottom bunk will match! Well the comforter isnt the same as the one in the picture tho, sorry for false advertisement, i got that on at walmart.

We also did a lot more shopping and eating, i love famous daves and ihop! Never get the chocolate chip pancakes tho, they were like only chocolate pancakes no flour or anything but chocolate, im not a big fan of chocolate soo when i say the plate i could only eat half of a pancake till i was like i done.

Well i better go now since we just got back from the trip and i havent slept in over 16 hours!
Those were ideas for this painting, i need help picking, or should i do a magazine collage!?

Homework this week, and minis?

Well yes I havent had time for my craft room at all this week. From having english reading assignments, science, psychology and geometry i just started to run out of time for drinking water because my anxiety of not going to get my homework done... But hey, this weekend my momma and I are going to take a road trip to a smaller town then were i live and go shopping at a new craftstore!

Yes, i have at least a B but, i would like to get my grades to at least a letter grade up and my english grade at least a B the book the "to kill a mocking bird" was super good but, im a little scared of tests.. Ok i get really nervous! This is why i have a D! The only horrible grade.:( i felt bad for my mid term grade especially since i stopped blogging and mini-ing because i was working on my grades really hard, yet that grade will not budge... He must hate me or something :(.... Yet, i never miss an assignment to hand in EVER!

Well good bye for know, just telling you that im over my depression state! It lasted a whooping 2weeks! No i dont have any medical or mental problems about that i think? But i do hsve OCD and anxiety.. Its ok though my OCD isnt that bad, just very clean...and organized. If you need a cleaner for a craft room i can help....

Update week 3

I tore the lamp out... Dang it... But hey the fireplace looks amazing!
Added aged, going to have to age it again when i do the fence.
Aged the window! Looks amazing. I know looks like i added to much, but i like the look :)
I love it from the inside, i still need to but a light or lights for this laundry room...
Guess what finished the kitchen flooor! Heck yeah
Finished the carpet too. It sucks tho. I didnt like the out come. But i guess it still will look better once filled with things to cover up the not so good parts.
Lights are on! And Elli is sleeping in her room! She loves her house! She really cant wait for the garden roof to be done!
I need my ipad a cut of capachino and some strawberries! To sit buy the fireplace, well i just ordered a miniature ipad that will be coming soon! So Elli will be able to do that.. Thats just spoiled! Nah, just extra loved i think?
Yes i finished the fence, i should have done my 5 paragraph essay thats due Tuesday. But hey i can write it and type it tomarrow during study hall right?yes, i just couldnt stop mini-ing, this morning i didnt want to get off the couch from the hbs magazines but then i went to the craft room to put some yarn and other things i left laying in the living room thwt was suppose to be in the craft room. And well bam i was just tinkering around and ended up mini-ing and didnt stop till well what time did i post the blog? Well i better go try and get the super glue off my fingers.. Yeah i know, sarah why were you dumb anough to use super glue on miniatures. Well the floor wasnt drying quick anough, the fence wasnt holding and i ran out of painters tape that holds my wet wood were i want it... So i had to improvise. Well i only glued wood and my own fingers to my fingers. But know i have no super glue and no painters tape, i hope my mom or dad can find a stash of painters tape around somewhere. Especially since my mom hates painter tape to use while painting, she free hands, must be why i free handed the fireplace.... Oh yeah i need to go and wash the hands from super glue.

Fireplace and roof!

Well, i got the stain and wood done! Just for simple greenery in the cracks!
In the process of getting the fireplace in, well my lamps wires were taken out! Yeah wasnt happy. But i can move it into the laundry room know!... The fireplace has brick work that was painted on by me free handed! There is brick work inside where the fire would be too. I used chalk pastels and acrilic paints for the fireplace. The chalk was for blacking the soot from the fire and acrilic from the rest the red, black and white making the bricks look good.

Now i chsnged the living room floor so im changing the floor from wood to carpet. I wanted the carpet just because i dont want sll the rooms to have hardwood, this wouldnt be pleasing to the eye.

Well im off the look for more ideas! Keep on blogging!

Can you knit?

Well i cant knit, looked on youtube, learned how to cast on. Yet, i couldnt understand how to knit. So after only buying the knitting needles 12 hours ago, went back to walmart and bought some cute yard and a scarf loom. Just a rectangular loom.
I love to loom! Very calming and i can loom anywhere. Ive already made a small miniature blanket. Since i was tired and testing out if i really liked it to make miniatures! I mostly wanted to knife because ive see sooo many cute blankets and curtains from knitters. But i cant. I guess i will have to ask my moms friend katie bug to show me how to knit. Since i can cast in the darn thing. Why cant i knit? I taught my self how to crotchet from youtube why not learn how to knit from youtube? Well i might have anougher supprize tomarrow! Its about the gardens floor! :) sorry i would take i picture but im wooped. Well see ya tomarrow and happy mini-ing! And here are some ideas that i love for the garden:) just imagine what i could do!
Going to use the shelter idea!
Love the floors!
I like the pillows but, not for out side...
I love this shelter too....
And this one. I will just make a japanese like thingy, well yeah makes sense. Sorry you may not know what thingy im talking about. I think its called a arc? Or shelter.... Looks pretty tho!

Laundry! Well I've got a room:)

Well its finnaly posted for being done! Yeah:) just need to sand still, easy part:)
I finished the laundry room, well might be a laundry room.. No it will, ive worked hard and yes it is done. Many pieces if scrap wood together to make the roof! Well fine 5 but, still i could have made something else with that... Oh well i looks good now!
Even added a window! Thank you for buying things with plastic on them! Now i need to work hard over the thanksgiving break from school. I get to finish the floors with skinny sticks:) goody! Ok not really but, when the floors are stained they look amazing! Yet, if i need to finish the floors i need to find a way to make stone like i want in the fireplace. What could i use? I was thinking if this one stuff that is pink while wet and dries white. But, what if i dont like the out come? Then my fireplace is ruined. But i have a hobby lobby one! Just incase. Hopefully it would fit! Just kidding:) what else could i use for the dang stone work? Im sure that (Elli) the heidi ott doll really doesnt want to live in a construction zone. She wants to make food and read some books in the living room, well at least i only hsve to work on the first floor, kitchen living room, porch and garage, or and the new garden!!!!
Yep, the garden, isnt it beautiful? I can just see the stone or side walk like floor snd the beautiful pots filled to the rim with flowers and ferns! Oh and dont for get the vegies and fruits! I already bought a little water spicket! From this one mini site for mini metals. Joannesmini from youtube helped me out with the finding of it, just go to her blog! Or youtube whatever you like best.
Yes i broke a piece! Glad i have some super glue! Im going to paint them soon, i will take a picture then. Ive got 2 waffle makers, salt and pepper shakers, 2 skillets,a spicket, an iron, a tea kettle and a halloween mask! This is going to be for the teens room since well dur i love scsry movies! And well it fits the bill:) oh and a bread pan. I think thats what its called, or a loaf pan. Well up up snd away to the next picture!
My parents are amazing! They got a new dremel tool for me:)) it cuts, sands, buffs, and a few other things, i really wanted one since using a little hand saw is really frustrating! So is waiting for a battery to charge but hey, charging battery i can use the hand saw:)


Well i guess thats an up to date on this week since im not good at keeping up to date... Well more blogging this weekend though since well thanks giving brings a long lazy day and being sick with the head cold on top really makes it hard to want to do anything else but sit, ok ok minis are different. I need to do minis or i get bored and start looking on ebay for things... Or youtube for ideas or other sites... It happens. Well see you later alligater!

Time time time.

I need more time, i need time to stop so i can be done with all my homework so i can run to my craft room:) im also trying to figure out how in the world ti make a miniature dvd or cd, any ideas? Comment please, i thought of beads but it wants any good and then buttonsnhave two holes and they dont look like a dvd or cd. The reason is i was going to try for a funky wall art pieces for the mckinley, yes i know its not done yet, you still need to order the roof for the laundry room, yeay yeah, well i really just want to create miniature things:)


I found this on the internet when i looked up the frase "its Bill Fucking Murray" thanks to Zombieland!!!! This is also why i want to know what would look like small cds, this would be for 1/12th scale, im going to paint on the cd the name or just use as is would be easier.... I will be right back, thank the Lord for smart apps for ipad! Lol well brb..
Well, sorry i had to clean the dishes, clean up after my puppy (Oscar) and get caught up in my school work, i did all of it in like 4 hours since i left. Well yes i left the blog sit... I also took pictures! I will explain how i got the resin into the green topped aquarium here shortly.. Lets drop down.
On the top left hand side there is a black piece that pops out were most average people put water into right? Well Sarah or myself thought this would make a wonderful salt tsnk aquarium that she always wanted... Since it was only $3 on ebay, heck yah, well got to it 2 or 4 months after i bought it ok i forgot about it for that long any way... I was going to take the top off change everything, little coral and grass and then little micro nail beads, well glad i didnt buy anything, since the top was super glued on. Not the sellers fault either, it was brand new unopened.
Oh yes the tutorial

What is needed: resin of your choice, I used a "grow aquarium tank"... Also used was added. small out door rocks( such as some gravel that i cleaned) then i put the resin into a saline solution bottle, then i held the bottle together since those bottles dont recap, and squeezed the bottle till all the resin was poured into the tank this took only one bottle. I had extra that would then go into the fish bowl i will talk about soon. Im now going go show the top of the box that the gree topped aquarium came in.:) the aquarium is either a sea salt or a 1/6 or barbie 10 gal tank.
Remember the lid was super glued, if anyone knows around the super glue ways, i would love to know just in case i forget... But i dont think i could forget about the whole thing, resin all over till my mom grabbed an empty bottle and helped me out!
This fish bowl was wayyyy easier! Smashed beads, a fish bead, resin of choice, and a fish bowl. It was the easiest thing. I got the fish to stay in place but a fishing line string( ironic right?) and toothpick and some tape. Tied the bead with the line and then i tied the line to the toothpick which then the line was way to short for me to tie it to the toothpick. This made it to bring the tape in. By the way, if you want to do this smash the beads on cement, my craft table is dented in two places.... Yah i know dumb Sarah! But it was dark and there is 3 feet of snow on the ground and living in the country makes for coyotes and mountain lions to be out. These animals are very curious! I wasnt going to take any risks.. And im just a baby:) also my mom would have yelled at me since i had to miss two days of school due to the flu... "You dont need to be out in the cold, you were just sick 2 days ago!" I could just hear it now! Oh hi mom i love yah! Well im not going to be hiding in my craft room:)
Well here are some more things that i worked on, if you were following this week i did a some what of a tutorial on the binder and the "28 days later" poster. Even if i painted mine, i guess you could print yours if you want, i give you permission if you want to print mine:) that would just be awesome! I want to sell some of my things that i paint, but i dont know if people would actually want to buy them. I guess i will just keep posting and maybe one of these days someone will be like " oh thats amazing how much!" Haha sorry im in dream land, its around the time for me to go to sleep now.... Its been a long day started at 5:30 and usually ending at 9:30. Also im caught up in all my classes! Oh did i say that? Oh well.

I didnt work in the mckinley, but i do need to get some money saved up before working the roof and to build the laundry room sink, since the sink is going to be a tutorial i found that is made from mat board and the roof is going to be made from some wood i have to order from the greenleaf dollhouse shop.... At least i start my first job on Thursday! That makes it easier to get a few christmas presents for me and more for my family:) i can also craft decorstions in real scale:) so its ok:) my mom loves to get paintings and some of my other art pieces. I should get those up later on in the week! I think everyone would love to see them even if half of my family has seen them:) but, its ok my mini followers havent;) and i want to put them on the blog to show more creativity then some small things i did....well goodnight or good morning, but its night in my area. Well bye bye:(
