Kyoto Gion Book Nook | Anavrin (Ships out on 29/11/2024)
Experience assembling our Kyoto Gion DIY Book Nook Kit, inspired by an unforgettable morning we spent wandering the quiet paths of Kyoto’s Gion district. Just before sunrise, with not a soul in sight, we found ourselves immersed in a rare, tranquil moment. The iconic Hōkan-ji pagoda emerged through the soft morning mist, and delicate cherry blossoms lined the cobblestone pathway, illuminated by the gentle glow of lanterns still flickering from the night. Piece by piece, you’ll capture this peaceful, hidden side of Kyoto—the charm of ancient ryokans, the first blush of dawn, and the calm that fills the air when the world is still asleep.

Description
If you've ever strolled through Kyoto’s Gion district, perhaps down the Hōkan-ji walkway, you know the magic of this place. For us, it was an early spring morning, just as dawn painted the quiet streets with soft, golden light. We wandered, entirely alone, our footsteps the only sound as we took in the untouched beauty of the empty alley. There was a fresh chill in the air, tinged with the earthy scent of morning dew and a hint of cherry blossoms, their fragrance lingering like a sweet whisper.

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.
