I am so excited to announce that I set up a Patreon page, something I have never tried before but knowing how engaged the mini community is I thought this would be a really great way to share my creative journey and my projects with other like minded people beyond just instagram and blog posts. Longer form content and more of a community.
My goal is to release regular video updates once a month starting the first week in Sept. Some of the sorts of things I have been thinking about are listed below but I would love to hear suggestions from you about what would be most interesting or valuable for you. So please send me any suggestions.
-
Tutorial Videos: Step-by-step tutorial videos showcasing different aspects of dollhouse miniature making. Like miniature furniture crafting, painting techniques, creating tiny decorations, and more. I hope you can learn new skills for use in your own projects
-
Behind-the-Scenes: Insights into my creative process. I will show you my workspace, tools, and materials. Share my inspiration and discuss how I come up with ideas for my miniatures.
-
Project Walkthroughs: Documenting the entire process of creating Version 2 of La Maison Tordue from start to finish. Including planning, design sketches, material selection, construction, painting, and final assembly. I hope you will enjoy seeing the evolution of this and other projects.
-
Tips and Tricks: I'll share tips, tricks, and hacks from efficient painting techniques to creative ways of using everyday objects as miniature accessories.
-
Q&A Sessions: If is sounds interesting, I will try hosting live Q&A sessions or create videos where I answer questions from you
-
Exclusive Patterns and Printables: things that i come up with during the process that you can use for your own miniature projects.
For my very first Patreon video, first week of Sept, I will start by introducing myself and my mini journey. What inspired me to start creating miniatures, showcase a few of my favorite projects all from my new workroom in sunny Mexico.
