A Disney fan and mum-of-two has recreated miniature versions of Andy and Sid’s rooms from Toy Story using household items from pen springs to coasters.

Emily Walker came up with the idea as her daughters, Amelia, 12, and Lilly, nine, collect Mini Brands figures, including Toy Story characters like Buzz Lightyear and Woody.

The mum made the wallpaper in Andy's room by painting white clouds on blue wallpaper, blinds out of a piece of card, a notice board which contains the posters present in Woody’s owner’s room using an old drinks coaster and Jessie’s signature cowboy hat using foam.

After posting about the scene in a group on Facebook, someone “challenged” her to make Sid’s room, with the Mutant Toys he plays with.

“To make the hand in the box toy, I used a Mini Brands hand, and then I used the spring from a pen and made the box out of card and painted it,” the 34-year-old said.

“To make the duck toy, I used a Mini Brands duck head and a Mini Brands Hulk’s body and attached them using a spring from a pen.

“I made the legs out of foam clay and I made a hook using a paper clip.”

She also made use of an old dummy teat, some wire and a hair bobble to create a light in the room.

Ms Walker, who is from Widnes, Cheshire, added: “I like the fact that Sid’s room is quite dark and Andy’s room is really bright.”

She has spent roughly £160 making both the rooms, buying furniture among other items on online shops including Etsy, eBay and Amazon if she could not find them at home, with each model taking roughly two weeks to make.

Ms Walker said the trickiest aspect was trying to accurately replicate the rooms, of which she used pictures online as a guide to ensure “everything matched”.

She said her daughters were “very excited” and “eager” for their mother to finish the creations.

“When they saw them, they said wow,” she added.

Ms Walker’s work has received hundreds of likes from people on Facebook, which she said has been “nice”.

“I was shocked to be honest because this was my first miniatures project,” she added. "All the comments were really positive.”

Next in the pipeline for Ms Walker is a replica of Sunnyside Daycare from Toy Story 3.
