I hope you enjoy this video and please let me know what part of the house you'd like to see next!

    These cabinets are made better than the cabinets in my actual kitchen, lol. They turned out amazing!!!
  • @missykim510
    Dayum gurl, that mini lazy susan blew my miniature brain! Outstanding!!
  • @MossyMozart
    I am so impressed that your construction was made from wood, hinges, drawer slides, little Rev-A-Shelves, metal hardware - no cardboard, no foam core board, no shortcuts. This will last.
  • I grew up in a house with the corner cabinet like that, and bought a house like that. Love those. When I was little it seemed like magic to me.
  • When I was a child my foster family had a plastic dollhouse. I would run to it but the other kids would push me out of the way. I dreamt of a big beautiful dollhouse of my own. Now that I'm an aunt I want to build one for the little ones but until now I have not seen a tutorial or anything that really sparked my attention and made me feel like I could try to make one. Your house is beautiful and you explain things so well. I'm going to buy all of the materials and watch your video over and over and see what I can do.

    I've seen other sliding drawers, but yours is the best so far. @11:33, could also be designer radiators. The carousel is ingenious and separates a mere hobbyist from someone who does serious work.
  • @amysbees6686
    O. M. G. The level of detail is ASTOUNDING! INSET drawers and cabinet doors.🤯 Absolutely EXQUISITE!!!💖🩵💖🩵💖
  • @seibervideo
    This is amazing. I need to start making props like this for my action figures. Really inspired!
  • @DRN
    I love how you used your FDM printer for making the rails for the drawers. It is a great idea
  • @fuchsfarben
    Man what a cute kitchen, I love all the functional drawers :D and oh boy am I excited for that kitchen build, I don't know why but I just love seeing miniature kitchens and their appliances being made
  • This turned out so great Cath!! I will be along for the ride of watching you make an entirely functional house!! Your ideas on how to get things to really work are fantastic💖😊
  • @marysakal2845
    I love, love, love what you make. I've always since I was little loved mini houses with furniture. Thank you.
  • I'm gobstruck! You've given me so many ideas for all the craft sticks that I have.
  • @lynjade3397
    Thanks for the live chat! Your work is flawless, as always 💕
  • @m1ss1ontomars
    This is the best tutorial I have seen to date on YouTube of a functional miniature kitchen and that too of modern design 😊Love with what clarity you have shown the step by step instructions. Thanks for the tutorial !!!!
  • you inspire me so much that i too started working on miniatures. im not as good as you but im getting there. love your work.
  • @dbseamz
    Your drawer pulls made me realize that I could make the doll size brass bed I've been wanting to make without having to use JB Weld (which would show against the gold wire) or actual soldering (which I did not want to do) just by 3D printing it. I was so happy to see someone else using Tinkercad like I do instead of something expensive and complex like Zbrush...and if spray paint can make 3D filament look that shiny I also don't need to worry about the color!
