Monica_the_haunted Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I really had to think about this one but, I've decided that I want to learn to do mitered corners like a pro, and learn to do the wiring all by myself. This way, all of my houses can get done faster :monkeydance: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Besides learning to keep my mouth shut and walking downstairs without falling? If I knew how to wire using both kinds of wiring methods I would have had my Pierce done long ago. It's waiting for Doug that is the holdup. He wants to do the wiring and doesn't want me around when he does it. Sigh. I too would like to learn how to make roof tiles out of paper clay, and how to make walls out of the clay as well. I see all these gorgeous houses with their stone facades, and I don't know how to do it! WAH!!!!!!! Someone please come and live with jme for a while and teach me how to do all these things? I'll even cook!!!!! Wolfie :monkeydance: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monica_the_haunted Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 To hold my tongue when my stepdaughters (ages 14 & 17) talk back to their father. Oooooh, thats a good one. I must learn that as well :monkeydance: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallowell Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I'd like to learn to play the piano and the violin. :monkeydance: In minis I'd like to get better at wiring. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Someone please come and live with jme for a while and teach me how to do all these things? I'll even cook!!!!! Okay, I'll come up next summer if you haven't got it under control by then. We can distract Doug while I show you how to do the wiring, and together I'm sure we can use Tracy's tutorials and other examples to turn out some fantastic paper clay elements. :monkeydance: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just One More Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I'd like tp learn another language, German or Russian. I know a very little German and it comes easy to me for some reason but I don't have anyone around like I used to to progress any further. I have a Berlitz screen saver in German and it's fun. In mini's I'd like to be able to miter crown moulding without ruining most of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovecats Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Play the guitar. I bought an acoustic guitar when i was 19, it has followed me around the country as i have moved place to place. I'm now 40 and it's sitting in the basement, still haven't learned how to play it! I'd also like to learn another language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa_F Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 In my mini world I would love to learn to properly cut crown moulding & baseboard trim so that it fits properly & looks nice. This is my biggest hold up to completing the insides of dollhouses - I just can't seem to get the hang of it so that the trim pieces sit flush against each other & look nice. In my everyday life I'd like to learn a another language well enough to speak it fluently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
