Natural Store DIY Miniature House Kit 9 in by Wizardi F07M51-58-DA-006-A

A pale mint botanical shop under a steep slate-grey roof strung with warm lights: a Natural Store sign hangs above shelves of jars, dried flowers, herbs and a framed butterfly, a long counter holds a teapot, scales and baskets of produce, and amber glass jars, lanterns, a white bench, an iron gate and pots of lavender and greenery crowd the stone doorstep.

A little crafter's folklore: herbalists say a bunch of lavender by the door keeps a shop calm and welcoming, and miniaturists like to put the lanterns either side of it.

Why this kit: if you love plants and apothecary style, this little shop house is earthy and calm, with a roofline of lights for an evening glow.

In the box: pre-cut wooden pieces, wallpaper and fabric pieces, miniature furniture and finely detailed accessories, built-in LED lights, and illustrated step-by-step instructions. Not included: batteries, glue and scissors.

Pair it with the Cocoa Bakery, which shares its size and base. Build tip: fit and glue the wall panels into the shell first, add wallpaper and fabric before the furniture, place the smallest accessories with tweezers, and wire in the lights last.

Size: 23 x 13 x 18.5 cm (9.1 x 5.1 x 7.3 in). A calm kitchen or shelf display and a gift for plant lovers. Recommended for ages 14 and up.
