Beautiful and very fun to put together
Ein schönes DIY - Projekt, bei dem man auch mit Ton in Berührung kommt. Brote und Snacks werden mit Ton gefertigt und anschließend mit der beigefügten Farbe überstrichen. Die Wirkung ist viel besser, als wenn diese Komponenten aus Papier wären.
Love, love doing these.
Absolutely delightful. Couldn’t believe just how beautiful it was once it was finished. Enjoyed every minute of making it. Looking forward to doing many more.
I absolutely loved building this kit! It is the sixth kit of this type that I’ve built and I have to say it has been my favorite. The wood is of good quality and the printing on it is nicely vivid and clean. There weren’t a whole lot of little, fiddly things to build, which I appreciated. The pieces fit together very well. It is a wonderful, fun kit to build.
I absolutely loved making this, the quality is better than everything else I’ve made to date, the instructions are easy to follow and as long as you follow the instructions properly this build is pretty much plain sailing. I was upset to find this at cheaper prices than what I paid and don’t think I could warrant paying as much as I did and would definitely buy this to build time and time again if it was a better price.
Nice retro shop, tailor is like a living being, amazing details, lots of fabrics, beautiful tailoring
Beautiful nostalgic design,creates a cozy athmsphere, only the musical mechanism is missing a part (small gear wheel) it was not delivered, so my chains do not run.
This was absolutely beautiful to make and gives me so much satisfaction to watch now that it’s finished
The infinity mirror effect makes this super unique, I love it!
Krásný nostalgický design, působí velmi útulně,. Jen v mém hudebním strojku chybí součást (malé ozubené kolo) nebyla dodána a proto se mé řetězy neotáčí...
Ok
Easy to build, great instructions, and works and looks great!!
It's really beautiful
Love it
We made a booknook before, this one looks very detailed and good quality
Ancient Book Collection Room DIY Book Nook Kit - Gateway to Endless Knowledge
Its perfect
Got it for my wife’s Christmas. Took around a week to arrive but got here just in time. My wife has built meany book-nooks from different suppliers. She rates these ones quite highly.
Easy to build. Very nice details.
Wery good stuff!
This has been a lovely model to put together with great results. Thank you
Some parts broke due to fragility. Some directions were not clear. But managed to finish it!
Ancient Egypt DIY Book Nook Kit - A timeless treasure for your shelf
Really great product that was fun to build. Love the design and attention to detail.
A really nice little build, not difficult and quite quick. I am pleased with the end result, very decorative.
This is one of the better book nooks. Parts were well aligned and fitted well. I really enjoyed working on this one
Well, not the worst, but very far from the best. Photos in the manual are so dark that it's impossible to know where you're suppose to put the pieces on the book nook. A Lot of very delicate, breakable, to thin and No backup! The music box? Well first off it was forgotten, but they send me one rapidly, but it's the usual studio ghibli tune and badly played. It's worth it, dont order the book nook with the music box.
Good quality and fun to put together. Love it and will buy another.
love it
Serenade of the Orchid Garden Mini House Kit l DIY Miniature Kit
Nice gift!
This has sentimental value as a few years ago we travelled to Florida to Happy Potter world and all our kids had received their wands from the store with a special ceremony. We love this addition to our home. Thank you.
Absolutely love doing this one
Train Cabin Series – Magical Journey Motion Scene DIY Book Nook Kit
Fairly easy to make, some very fiddly parts which are annoying, namely plants in silver & ceramic rings, folding for books etc. Mechanics are ok for the cuckoo, a bit clunky, does need refining. A shame it does not work in conjunction with the clock. It would be nice for an hourly chime. Overall it looks good and it works ok, clock has been keeping good time.
Easy to follow instructions and look brilliant and colourful when complete.
Interstellar Home: The Future Home of Mankind DIY Book Nook Kit
What a beautifull piece is this build. I love it to bits. Made it for my cat as an memorial house. She passed away. I put my own pictures in it.
This took me like 2 weeks haha. I got it for Christmas and I love it, but maybe start with an easier level of difficulty for your first booknook. I've finished it and will be getting more for my bookshelf:) definitely 5/5 difficulty level as they said. I wish they all had a difficulty rating; it is not listed on all of them.
Great quality, easy to assemble, totally in love. Looks amazing in my library
Rocoxia Ancient Book Collection Room DIY Book Nook Kit（Dust cover included）
Gives a lovely crafting time for the family. With so beautiful details, just great.
Such a cute shop! The kit was really great quality. Nothing missing, everything went together snug so minimal gluing but also minimal sanding. Design is great, love the 🐈 cafe and I would love to visit for real.
I haven’t started making it yet, but it all looks very nice and can’t wait to start
