2nd Japanese Miniature Doll House on-the-way

It's on the way! Just bought 1 last weekend and started it straight when I'm home. This time it is more of an outdoor-sy miniature than a indoor room. Cutting those leaf have been driving me crazy.. not to mention sticking the 'grapes' together.. when I'm done, u will know what I mean..

However, now I look at it properly, it doesn't seem to have a Japanese feel of it.. Haha.. More of a western country look.. But, it's still very very lovely.! Haha..


Stay tune for more pictures later on!

Miniature Japanese Room

Labour day is a day for relaxation. I choose to do my miniature! ^.^

I bought this set of DIY miniature set at 1Utama, Qbox! I think that's the name if I'm not wrong. Located at Lg. Rm39.90. Influence from kim kim

Can't wait to get started to construct my miniature set. Eventhough I've always say that buying the DIY set is always more expansive than buying the raw material and build it myself. However, this DIY set save me a lot of time and hassle from cutting and measuring which I somehow always seems to do very long.

Since it has already been measure and cut, all I have to do is just assemble. Which means I can complete this set in just 3 hours. Compare with few days of measuring, cutting, sticking of my models last time.. Haha..

This DIY set is great. The only problem I have with it is the choice of colour chosen and the quality of the material provided. The balsa wood that made the door is crooked and the measuring is not right. I still have to cover up the top part as it is not long enough to reach the ceiling. (No time for that yet though ^^")

And I do not like the colour of the wood. Not realistic. Ok.. I'd admit I'm being fussy here but what do you expect from a student from design? Lol... I've been critic often enough. If I'm in the mood, I would coloured the wood again but too bad.. I'm not. I'm just too excited to stick them together to see the final result.. haha..

And one more thing, the decoration items for the shelves aren't proportionate enough. The size is tooooo big which cause me to separate the head and body to fit it into the cabinet.. OMG.. =.="

Other than that, the design is good. I really like how it turn out. I might add more items to it later but for now, it's good enough.. Haha..And I think I've already write too much for your eyes. Let's have ONLY pictures now.

*The guides.. all in chinese. So only can see pictures which is a bit frustrating at times.. Lol*


*Everything inside the DIY set*


*Told you I don't like the colour so I change the colour of the ceiling and photoframe ^^*


*The tatami flooring.*


*The tatami flooring after added the wood. That's the wood colour that I don't like. haha *

*Another overall view of miniature*


*I like this area. But the photo at the wall seems a bit big, (proportion again) and the photo background is suppose to be white but I don't like it. So it became pink. ^^*


*Another flower. This time it is a vase with flowers. This is pretty. ^^*

Missy Dollhouse

My 1st doll house miniature made 100% from 0.. Lol.. I use an old photoframe and start to build a box behind the frame. Then build miniature inside.. I love my little cupboard.. And I confess that I'm already very tired and bored when I did that table so it look really.. weird.. haha..

Initially I intend to include more things into it..And also maybe some led.. But then, I get tired and stop already.. If I'm not mistaken, it's already been 5 months.. almost.. haha.. So I think I will just post this up 1st and maybe if I do really add things into it I will update it. ^.^

Just enjoy the pictures will ya?

A bit bird eye view ^.^


Notice the photoframes? I love making them sooo much! Pictures are from magazines.. Lol..


The cupboard that I loves so much! And I also really enjoy making the mini packages.. I guess I prefer to make smaller items instead of those big big things.. Lol..
