Miniature Tip- Making little beds isn’t difficult. Layering pillows can be challenging though😂 When doing a photo for a magazine I will often use double sided tape behind pillows to hold pillows in place and straight when making the bed. It works beautifully for holding them where they need to be. Then I remove it after the photos are taken. #miniaturetips #ribbonwoodcottage #lovelylittleminiatures #cherry #miniaturebed #dollhousefurniture https://www.instagram.com/p/B9PTaW0H0Sj/?igshid=1mvhj8erymfvp

Here’s a little miniature Museum tip: I make all my shadow boxes and most of my frames myself. The shadow boxes consist of 9 pieces, and each layer (top sides and bottom) are glued separately. Once they are dry, I glue all the layers together (with wood glue) but they are too delicate to clamp - even with low-weight clamps- so I wind it all gently but firmly with thread to hold everything together till it dries. I use makeshift thread-clamping on a lot of stuff and it’s super handy 💕 #mabsminiaturemuseum #process #miniaturetips #mabgraves #dollhouseminiatures #shadowboxes
