As Seen On
Dive Deep Into A Nautical-Styled Bunker
The Abandoned Submarine DIY Book Nook Kit is the culmination of a three-month journey filled with constant reiteration, trials and errors, and innovative breakthroughs. Utilizing LED lights, we have created a mesmerizing effect with beams of light cutting through the water, enhancing the sense of exploration and discovery as the diver searches for remnants within the submarine's shadowy depths.
DIY Fun & Displayable Models for Decor
To elevate the realism and immersion, we've incorporated a 'tick' sound effect into the door knob mechanism. This feature replicates the heavy, metallic clunk of a bunker door being opened, reminiscent of the secure, echoing sound of a bank vault. This auditory element enhances the tactile experience, making it feel as though you are truly unlocking the secrets of the submarine.

What does your DIY Craft Kits comes with?
Our DIY Craft Kits comes with everything you need ranging from detailed instruction guide, cutting tools, crafting papers, solid plywood sheets and lights as well. However, we're not able to include glue due to shipping restrictions. Nonetheless, we do recommend getting a silicon based glue for our craft projects which you can get from a bookstore or art store! If you'd like a specific glue brand, you can choose to use Elmer's All Multi Purpose Glue and Gorilla Super Glue (for a stronger & faster stick)!
*You may require to file the edges with a sandpaper if the pieces does not slot in smoothly.
How long does it take to complete a project?
It really depends, our book nooks have been designed in a way whereby it takes lesser time because there are no coloring/painting required - the plywood pieces are already colored hence it's more of a gluing and pasting craft activity. It should take roughly 4-6 hours to complete. However, we do have customer who love to take their time and complete it over the weekend with their family members or friends!
Is it beginner friendly? Will it be a great gift for people who wants to try DIY crafting
We do our best to ensure that all of our DIY Craft Kits are simple and straightforward. We're focusing on providing the best experience to anyone who wants to try out DIY Crafting as a hobby! We do have customers who have never tried crafting before and they're now on their way to building their second, third, fourth kit and so on! It's a very unique and thoughtful gift - truly a great way to remind a family member or a friend to take some time off and indulge in relaxing therapeutic crafting activity!
Are these suitable for children?
Most of our DIY Craft Ktis are suitable for children age above 10. However, we do have parents telling us that their 6-8 years old children are having a ton of fun with it too. We guess ultimately, it boils down to how are the kits presented to them - if you're giving them the kit and expecting them to build on their own, we do think that it can be a little bit tough for them to complete it. However, if you're planning to build the kit with them and spend some quality time together, meanwhile engaging their inner tinkering and creativity mode, then we do think it's very possible for them to complete it. We do encourage family to do it together as a bonding activity while taking some time off screens!
If I accidentally break one of the key pieces for the craft kit, are you guys able to send a replacement?
Yes, simply reach out to us and our team will sort it out for you! However, please do keep in mind that the process can take some time as it's a specific piece which we will need some time to sort it out before sending it over to you.
