NuiMOs Bathroom Vanity

The final piece of furniture I have for today is a bathroom vanity! I actually have a couple pieces of furniture that I haven't taken pictures of yet, but most were super simple so it'll be easy to write a post about them someday. But for now this the final one for today. =)

Here's what you'll need:

  • Cardboard (average thickness and thin)
  • Hot Glue and Hot Glue Gun
  • Craft Foam (two colors)
  • Popsicle Sticks
  • Pipe Cleaners
  • Craft Paper
  • Cutters
  • Tin Snips
  • Ruler
  • Pen
  • Aluminum Foil or Mirror

Cut out some cardboard: 3" x 5" (x2), 3" x 2.5" (x2), and 2.5" x 5" (x2). Glue them as pictured above, and cut a hole for your sink. Make a sink out of craft foam and glue it to the inside of the sink hole.

What I don't show in the next photo is cutting a piece a cardboard that goes underneath the popsicle stick exterior. The doorway is 4" x 3", so that should make the piece 5" x 3.5" originally. I get this because the pieces that goes around as a doorway is 0.5" wide. 

Take some black foam for the countertop, making sure to leave the sink open.

I did these door similar to the way that I did the kitchen sink doors. I use the cardboard piece from above that was 4" x 3" and then cut it in half. I covered the exterior with craft foam and used two strips of craft paper to attach the doors so they could still kind of open. 

I also did the same thing for the faucet and knobs by using one pipe cleaner. One half of the pipe cleaner was wrapped around a pen and then bent to give the curve. The other half got cut in half and twisted into knobs.


 You'll see here that I have two variations of the mirror. I realized that after making the first one it wasn't going to fit into the attic of my nuiMOs house where the bathroom was to be located. So, I had to make an oval one that would fit into the peak of the roof-line better. Both mirrors were make using aluminum foil sandwiched between two layers of craft foam. The rectangle has the popsicle sticks for the frame. To attach it to the vanity I used another popsicle stick.

There you have it, a bathroom vanity! I hope that this was somewhat helpful to you and you feel like maybe you can tackle one yourself. Please share your creations here or with @disneynuimosdiy on Instagram. Have fun crafting!

DIY Clothes Pattern (Part 1)

Image
 Okay. I really, really hope this works. This is my first times making some printable patterns, so there's probably going to be some hiccups. Let me know in the comments and I will try to figure it out. These should fit onto a 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper each, for scale. These patterns are designed with a very small seam allowance. (The collars of the shirts even more so.) You can make clothes by hand-sewing or use a machine. The hems are only one fold vs. the regular double-fold. Just makes it easier to handle. But this also means you're not going to want to use fabric that will fray a lot. For notions you will need 1/4" elastic black/white and some velcro. I bought a 2" thick velcro and then cut it into tiny 1/4" strips for the shirts. Show me your cute designs made with these patterns. I'm thinking of sharing some every now and then here on the blog as a showcase. Remember, you can also share on Instagram to @disneynuimosdiy.  Have fun creating!

New Dress Patterns And Tutorial

Image
It's been a long time coming, but here are some new sewing patterns! I posted a sneak peek on my Instagram about a month ago and I finally got around to making some for the tutorial. These are two new dresses. I'm calling them a Wrap Dress and a Empire Waist Dress. The Wrap Dress is a completely new dress while the Empire Waist Dress is made just like the gathered dress I did earlier, so follow the tutorial for this dress here . The only difference is that didn't make the skirt portion as poofy. I know it can be hard to print these off. I may have a new way to share these but I'm not sure yet. So, for now, save the image and print to fill the whole page. The page size I've based these on should be 8.5" x 11". Please remember anything you make if just for personal use. Don't resell these patterns as your own or sell finished pieces made from these patterns. Thanks. =) WRAP DRESS TUTORIAL Here's What You'll Need: Fabric Thread Velcro (or other cl...

nuiMOs Sorcerer Mickey Outfit (And Shoes)

Image
It's time for a new pattern! This is one that I've been wanting to make for some time now and I finally got around to making it. I thought it would adorable to see Mickey in his Sorcerer's Apprentice outfit and, boy, was I right! The fabric I had turned out to be little tricky but in the end it worked out.  Please remember that I'm sharing these patterns in good faith. Don't use these patterns for selling purposes. These are for personal use only. Adobe did something weird when enabling editing on the photo, lol. Shoe here are the patterns to make his outfit. I made a shoe pattern because he has brown shoes and I didn't purchase any of that color. As it says, there are two patterns on there and I used the bottom set. And then for the sorcerer robe you will have to print out the jacket pattern available with the first set of patterns . You'll need to have a front, the two backs, and two sleeves. And now onto the tutorial!     The first step is to, of course, ...
