As far as doing miniatures today, I worked on couches. I showed you the couch I made from the quarter-scale book. But as I was looking through my Pinterest file on minis, I saw these couches that I really liked. I decided to try them my way.
I want all of the couches to be colorful. And using mat board means it has to be painted or papered. And I will make a few more of the first couch. But I decided to use cardstock. I have a lot of it in different colors.
So I measured it from the first couch and made the overall piece. It included one piece that had both the back of the couch and the sides. I love the sides.
I searched for something to use for the couch insides. I found some foam pieces. Too short, I used them anyway because I plan to cover the front. The side gaps will never been seen.
I haven't decided what to use for the front yet. Perhaps a fabric? Also plan to make little pillows. These were not difficult to make but they were a bit messy. I also want to trim the couches.
I am going to look for designed cardstock to make some, too.
I have to work tomorrow. I am going to try more couches when I get home.
Until then...
Pat
