  • I think I’m going to leave a message on all my other sites, the appropriate ones, to send people here. I watch some crafting sites and think some is there watchers would appreciate your miniature world😊. Let’s get you to 25K or 50K!

    letters to wallpaper their room, postage stamps to hang on their wall, and old chess pieces that they use as statues are all things I found that borrower's like to borrow.😂 matchboxes for dressers and trinket boxes for furniture.

    I have always loved this book! You two are rather like the borrowers yourselves, aren't you? This is brilliant!
  • Your sweet voices and calming chit-chat make this channel a healing place! I wish I could turn back time and spend my daughter’s childhood all over again. There would be a lot more time spent enjoying her company! You’re blessed to have these moments together, and I’m blessed by your sharing 😊

    Best books ever! I was obsessed as a little girl, and made a house in my bottom drawer for borrowers! My brother wrote little notes ont tiny paper, and mover furniture around, so for a long time a believed we might just possibly have borrowers! When i got back from summer camp, he had left a not saying they had gone off traveling, and would remember me always. Best older brother ever.

    Nothing as delightful as the Borrowers. At 66 I have the full collection of books. I think it would be lovely to take the safety pin ladder her father used to climb and stick it in the uppermost floor with the rope hanging down. This has to be my favorite project you’ve done thus far! Time to sit down and reread the series to get ideas.

    Watching this I was transported back to my childhood. A gentler time where my imagination ruled my world. Thank you, Fleur and Kate.

    "...beauty in the broken bits..." Yes I agree; that is the charm of these projects... (what a fitting motto for life.)
  • Oh, please don't stop adding all of the beautiful little detail you put into all of your works! I love a nice, cozy, busy little room with so many things to see!!

    😍I find that the most interesting people are what I call "people of clutter". Their homes are full of wonderful things that they love, often (many) animals, and they will welcome you into their home and tell you to perch where you can for a cookie or a tea any time. And they never worry that there's a bit of fur or some dust, because we are all just dust anyway. I love that there is something to look at everywhere you look in your miniatures. And I love your lovely channel. Happiest of Holidays!
  • I’m only half way in and this is, without a shadow of doubt, the bestest most perfect and fabulous thing ever in the history of the world. I love you two women and all you stand for.

    I'm 70 years old and have never heard the story of the Borrowers. I have dyslexia so I'll look it up for audio books. Thank you so much for sharing this adorable project. It's so very precious! Thank you also for including Mr. Sonny Cat. He is just too stinkin' cute. I have a kitty that looks just like him. His name is Dusty. I hope you have a blessed Christmas and perhaps you'll get another video out before then. My favorite ladies on YouTube. ❤ xx

    Having Sonny cat in the videos is always such a bonus! Love hearing his purr! ❤
  • Bobby pins would make excellent curtain rods. Bottle caps for pie tins. Beads as balls. Spent matches as logs to burn
  • @jantucker9355
    You do not clutter! You are just Maximal Miniaturists!!
  • I’m sure I have some Borrowers in my home, so many things go missing! Your little clock rooms are precious! Please don’t take any notice of the criticism, 99% of us love the cluttered rooms!! 💕
  • I love the way you are kind and let Sunny cat “help”! He is so cute with his tongue hanging to the right! 😆 You are both so creative. I love the Borrowers clock, what a great idea! Fleur you have created a wonderful life for and relationship with your kiddos. God bless

    The borrowers are real! I am positive! I know they will enjoy this.❤

    Oh, how wonderful! I have just shared The Borrowers with my 7 year old grandson. He is an absolute believer in their existence, along with the bwbach who lives in the old part of our ancient house and plays tricks on us. I will replay this video for him after school on Monday and know Sonny's pure will be a bonus for him as Binkie, his own kitten, kept us company as we read.
