I picked up one of those miniature kits online. I did not know what I was getting myself into! It was so cute, though, I stuck with it, and after probably 50ish hours of work, it came together.
These individual cat food cans were painstaking - tiny strips of paper and silver tape formed into cans, and thin wire cut and shaped into the tabs. The cat bed was made by coiling a raffia kind of cord, the pillow was made separate, and the little spring toy is twisted wire and cut out paper pieces.
There were a few things I changed, like keeping the slide white instead of painting it, just because I liked that look better. The cat head sign had a piece that was supposed to say “THE SIGN,” but I thought it looked cuter without it.
I just read a story on how a husband freaked out when his wife wanted to use the 2nd bedroom (currently the CAT"S BEDROOM!) into a nursery for their 10-month-old, who has been sleeping in their bedroom. The husband went bonkers, sulked in the cat’s room for hours, and completely refused. And he wanted kids! He called his cat his cat daughter. Maybe he needs a this.
Adorable little kitty-scene! I know these miniature scenes do take a lot of time; it’s nice to have something so fun to look at, if you are going to have to look at it for so long. And in such detail, too. Nice!
This is wonderful, where did you get this kit? It’s quite different from the ones I’ve seen. They do take ages, but it’s quite meditative just following the instructions (until you superglue tiny bits of wire to your fingers)
