Weekend Bookstore DIY Miniature House Kit 8 in by Wizardi F07AM10-1-3-ECJW-73

A lilac bookstore with a Weekend Bookstore signboard and an open book motif. Through the window and the opening door are shelves packed with tiny books in pastel covers, framed flower prints on the walls, pots of red tulips, a reading display and a Good Book chalkboard on the step.

A little crafter's folklore: book lovers say the right book always finds you on a lazy weekend, and miniaturists like to leave one book face out on the shelf as a recommendation.

Why this kit: if you love books, this little shopfront is a charming bookstore without the price of a full book nook, and the door really opens.

In the box: pre-cut and printed parts for the shopfront, signboard, opening door and interior, miniature furniture and accessory parts, printed paper sheets for the window displays and packaging, an LED light, and an illustrated instruction manual. Not included: batteries for the light, glue, scissors and a dust cover.

Part of a little shop street series: every shopfront is the same size, so you can line them up side by side to build your own high street. Pair it with the Sweet Cake Shop, Coffee Shop and Blue Grocery Store shopfronts. Build tip: assemble the shell and signboard first, furnish the shop from the back wall forward, then fit the door and the light last. The build involves cutting, gluing, folding paper and bending fine wire, so take your time.

Size: 17.3 x 14 x 19.8 cm (6.8 x 5.5 x 7.8 in). A charming bookshelf display, and a gift for book lovers. Recommended for ages 14 and up.
