Sunny Cafe DIY Miniature House Kit 8 in by Wizardi F07M5-81-CWGC208

A sage green and cream corner cafe under a scrolled Sunny Cafe sign and a green First Meet awning: the window and back room are stocked with jars, bottles, kettles and paper bags of coffee beans, an espresso machine and a grinder stand on the counter, a cat naps on a wooden chair, and a round bistro table with two chairs, pots of roses and a chalkboard Cafe menu sit out front.

A little crafter's folklore: cafe owners say the first meeting over coffee is always remembered, and miniaturists like to set two tiny cups on the bistro table.

Why this kit: if you love coffee shops, this slim cafe is fresh and calm in soft greens, with a bistro corner out front and a warm light inside.

In the box: pre-cut wooden pieces for the shopfront and interior, printed paper sheets for signs, labels and tiny goods, miniature furniture and accessories, an LED light, and an illustrated instruction manual. Not included: batteries, glue and small tools such as tweezers.

Part of a little street shop series that lines up like a real high street on a shelf, with Sweet Marie Bakery and Anna's Blue Blossom. Build tip: assemble the inner shelves and back room first, fill them with the printed goods before closing the shopfront, then add the awning, sign and outdoor props, and fit the light last.

Size: 15.5 x 20.3 x 16.2 cm (6.1 x 8.0 x 6.4 in). Slim enough to stand among your books, a charming shelf display and a sweet gift. Recommended for ages 14 and up.
