You saw that coming, don't say you didn't.
Yes, I chose the bedroom. The living room plan however, was good too, so I'll keep the plan for that.
I constructed a bed out of cardboard, and I made tons of pillows in attempt to fit the bed.
First attempt:
Second attempt:
The pillow would've been perfect except the rest of the bed is white :( that really ruins it.
The third attempt worked.
It looks exactly like the pillow in the living room except it's larger. The backboard of the bed is spray-painted black.
I think this would be the perfect room to put a rug. But before that I need to add the flooring.
Another day of miniatures ahead :). I have started on what is either going to be the living room, or going to be the bedroom. It is a rather large room so that is why it might the the living room, but then again, my mock-up bed is rather large and I couldn't make it to be smaller and still look realistic. It also won't fit in a regular sized shoe box.
Here's my idea for the living room.
I do already have a living room, so if I decide to use the bedroom idea, I can use my current one instead of renaming it the family room.
I had an empty space at the back of the room that I filled with a piece of furniture from another tutorial by Kris at 1 Inch Minis.
My other option is the bedroom, which was my original idea, and is the most probable one I'll choose.
Of course, I won't be doing this exact thing, I'll most likely tweak it 5000 times, but this was my original plan.
Looking at these pictures, the living room looks a whole lot cooler, but the bedroom looks more practical. I'll have my decision made by my next post.
I finally did it! I finally added the flooring! Yes, it took forever, but it looks nice in my standards.
It kind of looks more like a real room now :)
The welcome mat was not hard in the least bit, it doesn't even say Welcome so I guess it really isn't a welcome mat?
Remember yesterday's scene? The picture was moved to this room.
I decided that the flip-flops would be a great idea. That's another thing to add to the list of what you can do with jewellery wire.
I can't fathom what that little pink speck in between the boards is 0__0
Since I'm (mostly) done with this room I'll be working on the bedroom. This room is lighter than the other three so it and the living room will be on top of the others. The bedroom will have some form of wood floors too, so it will be directly on top. Though I highly doubt I'll be done after that :)
I probably should get back to UU2014. But today I made one of those desks that lots of teenagers use because who knows when I'll need one of those.
I found this amazing wood under my bed (how did wood get there?) and immediately seized the treasure and began to craft with it. I haven't used real wood in a long time.
I made a scene with the desk.
Several of the items are from my previous scene.
I love how there are endless possibilities with jewellery wire. Seriously, you can make anything from a toilet paper holder to a desk.
I love this picture.
This desk probably won't have a use in my current project so it will be going into the bin and waiting for an opportunity.
I'm so glad to pick up the hot-glue gun again, it's been so long. If you're wondering about my last post, well, I had to make a Trojan horse for school purposes. What you can't see is the latch that opens up and reveals a catapult (I'm not kidding).
I thought it would be fun to make a random scene. This is in no way related to the Undersized Urbanite, I'm just improvising for fun.
Both the table and the chair are tutorials by Ginger at Lola's Mini Homes. She's participating in the contest, so you can use the link to go see her ideas.
The dresser used to have a white painted tree on it, but it was kind of messy, so I repainted them. The drawers can open and close.
So glad to be miniaturing again!
The wallpaper is completed! I think the black pattern was a good choice. Now the flooring is an entire other matter. I'll probably end up getting more skinny sticks and doing the flooring in the same style as the living room.
I've added pictures that I printed off Google Images (what a surprise) and mounted on black cardstock.
I constructed a surfboard out of foam core board, paint, and Mod Podge.
The word on the bottom is Tide, which is short for Riptide, which is English for Anaklusmos. It's a Percy Jackson thing :D
What's left of this room is the flooring, something for the table, flipflops or Chacos for under the table, and possibly a welcome mat.
