Re: wallpapering my sylavanians


Thank you Beverly!
 I am still working on them, I bought the harvester restaurant and the store in an ebay auction. They must have belonged to a careful child, because there wasn´t any item missing. I have to take new photos with all the items on the shelves, and the courtains that I am making now.
Last week I bought a dresser to display my sylvanians. I will have it at home next week, and then I ´ll start with the landscaping. Your village is a great inspiration for me, your are a great artist!
I am trying to convince my husband to let me use our penthouse for my sylvanians ( now it is our study/library) but he doesn´t agree with my idea....
 I will post more photos soon.
Thank you for your kind comments!
 Blanca

It looks so real, right up until you see the obviously plastic breadknife on the counter. emoticon

Seriously, though, the other groceries like the cheese on the counter look amazing. Did you do the boxes on the shelf as well, or were those premade?

Hi Ryusui!
Thank you!
 The boxes on the shelf are made with printables I got from a dollhouse printings web. I saved the images, and printed, cut, bend and paste them. I have a lot of them in a word file, ready to print and cut. So if you are interested (or anyone else), I can send the file to you. I have scans of sylvanian stickers boxes, etc, too.
Thanks,
Blanca

Re: wallpapering my sylavanians


Hi Ellywood!
 Thank you!
Wallpapering is very nice to do, because the results are great.
I use dollhouse wallpapering.
First, I make the templates/patterns of each wall whith a white sheet.
I put the sheet against the wall and pres with the fingers on it, so, the windows and doors leave their shapes marked on the sheet. Afterwards I cut the pattern and try it on the wall, so i can verify that it fits.
When the pattern is ok, I draw it on the wallpaper of my choice, cut it and stuck the piece on the wall. I use a stick bar glue for this.
I have wallpapered some houses, so I have the patterns. If anyone wants them I can send them in an envelope. So just ask for them, I would pleased to share them with everybody.
This are the houses I have wallpapered:

- The village market
- Country manor mansion
- Harvester restaurat
- Village store
- Oakwood manor (still in progress...)


I have scanned the magazines, boxes of soap, tea, etc , of some sylvanian sets, and I have more dollhouse printables. I use them to make more boxes for the houses and shops. I can send them to anyone who want the too.

I use fima clay to make flowers, food, fruit, and the results are very nice. I use labels from dollhouse pritables yo decorate them.
Another thing i do with the labels is lookin for them in the web, save the image and resize it for my porpuses (see the cheese)
Now I want to start with curtains too...
If you want anythig else, just ask, my english is not very good, so i will try to explain things the best i can.
And please, don´t forget to post your wallpapering pics when you start workin! emoticon
Thank you!

Re: wallpapering my sylavanians


I've been working on my Deluxe Village House (Calico Critters's House on the Hill) for "months." I just don't have the time.

I managed to create templates of all of the rooms and get the left attic room wallpapered. It looks okay, but is far from neatly done. I have a couple of years to get it looking good since my daughter is only five months old. I'll post pictures when I at least get the right attic room wallpapered.
