Review: Cute and Fun - Given that you’ll see the same kits under different brands, I wasn’t sure what to expect from this. Overall, however, I was pleased. The wood parts pop out decently well and aren’t very flimsy. They can withstand some pressure and popping pieces together and apart a few times. There are a few extra copies provided for certain parts (but not others) just in case you do break something. There were times I put a piece in the wrong way and I managed to undo my work sans catastrophe, but you do have to be careful—a lot of wiggling with constant, gentle pressure to avoid breakage. In the end, I completed the kit having only broken one of the tiny brackets used to hold up the shop sign, and I was able to repair it fairly easily. If you’re new to these kits, know that you should have glue on hand. (I used jewelry glue, but anything with a thin applicator tip should work.). It will be called for in some places, but will be useful if you need to fix something OR if you need to fix something in place. A few of the tinier elements were very loose and kept falling out, and I found the solution was to add a little glue. The kit does not come with any building accessories other than some stickers you’ll need to hold the wiring in place, and a tiny file to shave off any sharp bits. You will also have to supply your own batteries. The instructions are decent. I discovered at the end that I had missed a few pieces (accessories, not structure) and in the end I had a piece I wasn’t even sure was in the instructions anywhere. Because the order isn’t always intuitive, if you get to the point where you’re assembling the walls and you have “decorative” pieces left, flip ahead and make sure those are coming up, because it’s possible you left them behind. There were also, as mentioned, a few cases where I installed something backwards due to how the diagrams are drawn. You’ll figure these mistakes out pretty quickly, but some pieces are easier to take apart than others. The light was an absolute pain to install, but I eventually did it. I am not sure how I will ever access the batteries, as the door doesn’t seem as pliable as the picture would indicate. That is a problem for the future. This was my first time making one of these. I worked on it on and off for about five days, stopping when my fingers were sore. I’m not sure how many hours that is, but it was several episodes of a couple of shows that are in the 45-60 minute range. These kits are just about to scale with Nendoroids, which was a big part of why I wanted to get some. Those figures do fit into the scenery pretty well. That is, they’re just tall enough to fit through the door, but their proportions mean their feet would be dangling if they sat on those stools. I have some 5-6” BJD figures and they feel a little bit too big, but also don’t look terrible scale-wise. If you’re into that sort of thing, which I am. Anyway, it was a fun way to spend the Christmas holiday weekend, and it came out pretty good. The price was decent as well, but I caught it during a promo period. I think I’m happy with the quality for that price, but might have different feelings if I had paid much more.
Review: BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER 😍 DAYS worth of fun!!! - My husband got me this for Christmas last year and it took me a while to get to it, and I’m so upset with myself for waiting so long because I had SO MUCH FUN!!! I obsessed over this from the moment I started until it was done! I finished it in a total of about 5 days but I used pretty much every spare second I had working on it 😂 It was so therapeutic to snap all the little pieces together! You make all the small pieces bit by bit before putting it all together and each piece felt like an accomplishment! I showed my husband every little part and said “Look! I made this! It’s so realistic!!! 😃” 😂 I felt my stress levels lower so drastically as soon as I started this project! ❤️ I LOVE the finished look too! It is so magical! I actually have it sitting on my bookshelf in my library right next to my tarot card collection and it is like a little portal to another world! It added so much life to that shelf! It’s the perfect addition to any library and the PERFECT HOBBY for anyone that likes to get crafty! I loved it so much I asked him for more this Christmas 😂 My ONLY problem was the cauldron! Almost every single one of the pieces broke, and there were no extras (which was surprising considering all the little pieces that had extras included that didn’t break lol). I almost gave up and bought a miniature plastic cauldron instead, but I’m really glad I decided to get creative with what I had instead because it looks so good in the finished piece! I obviously managed it after much trial and error in the final products as it’s clearly in the video, but I had to use hair clips like wood clamps to glue a lot of the pieces back together (so if you come across this problem, that solution works GREAT! Lots of glue and a whole day to dry and the pieces are SOLID! lol) 😂 That was the only frustrating part but in the end it felt like a creative accomplishment lol 🥰 The light system is also really cute and easy to set up! I was intimidated by that but the instructions are really clear and simple, and I loved how the different wood pieces clipped around it to hold it in place or disguised it to blend in! These are perfect gifts! The price is so affordable for how much enjoyment I got out of this! Highly recommend!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super fun project!
*by J***N on January 3, 2026*

This was so much fun! It took two days and I really enjoyed putting this together. The instructions could be a little better but other than a few steps, were fairly easy to follow. The structure is very sturdy and looks amazing! The pieces are good quality and there are backups provided for the ones that are more delicate. But I never needed to use a backup! The details in this are amazing!
