There’s something very satisfying about watching a pile of flat wooden pieces slowly transform into a beautiful moonlit cottage. Bit by bit, the winding stairs, moss-covered roof, tree and tiny woodland details start to come 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.
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.
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.
Krásný nostalgický design, působí velmi útulně,. Jen v mém hudebním strojku chybí součást (malé ozubené kolo) nebyla dodána a proto se mé řetězy neotáčí...
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
