"I just finished the most amazing book nook. I kind of squeal looking at it on my shelf. There is something is nostalgic about train travel. I would love to take an over night train trip some day. I find it amazing too that with all the technological advances we’ve made over the past 150+ years…that we still use trains as a mode of transportation. I hope trains never leave."

@miniature_french_world

"This kit is of the highest quality and the pieces fit together with such precision! I of course put my own spin on it and decorated the chairs and inside of the cabin with my own style and I couldn’t be more happy with the way it turned out 💚 🚂"

about our DIY Craft Kits...

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 batteries (for the lights) and 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)!

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!

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!

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!

Yes, simply reach out to us at here 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.

Yes, we're able to offer prebuilt kits however, it is only limited to these designs for now - 1940s Train Cabin. For prebuilt models, we will require additional 3-4 business days for us to build it and send it over to your stated address! As we expand and grow, we will definitely look to include more prebuilt options for all of our models.
