FleverDollhouse Miniature DIY House Kit Creative Room with Furniture and Frame Type for Romantic Valentine's Gift(Warm Dawn)

I picked the Warm Dawn miniature kit for my first time making a miniature, after getting the idea from a video of someone assembling an entire dollhouse kit. I liked how this kit was small, since I wasn't sure if I would be able to do it. I also liked how the end product wouldn't take up much space either, and could even be hung on a wall (where no one is walking closely by to bump into it). After reading other reviews, I acquired the following supplies: Beacon 3-in-1 Advanced Craft Glue, Aleene's Original Tacky Glue, precision tweezers, precision craft knife, precision scissors, and a placemat for cutting/gluing on.I mainly used the Beacon 3-in-1 glue because it set pretty quickly and dried clear. I used the tacky glue for gluing down the wallpaper by watering it down a tiny bit and painting it on. I guess I also used a cheap paint brush, dixie cup, paper towels, and toothpicks. The Beacon glue tended to leave a string of glue from the item to the bottle that I would catch on a toothpick and wipe on a paper towel. The glue was cheaper to buy at the craft store (plus they always have a coupon) than online. I also relied heavily on my precision scissors to cut out all the small paper items. I made some modifications to personalize it and improve 2 things that I didn't like. The first thing I didn't like was the wires between the top of the "Wall lamp" item and ceiling, so I poked/"drilled" a small hole in the back with my craft knife. I made sure that the 2 LED wires and wire that would be folded over and twisted could fit in the hole before continuing (see photo). Then I threaded the wires of the LED down through the bottom of the light instead of the top. I colored the white electrical wires with a black permanent marker and wrapped them around the twisted wires that were used to attach the light to the wall. Then when I attached it to the wall, I put the electrical wires through the hole that I had made and glued the lamp base over the hole. The second thing I didn't care for was the basket of 2 plates. Instead I made a loaf of bread by rolling up a strip of the "beige non-woven cloth" (felt) that was leftover from the "Cloth" item. I wrapped this roll in one of the cloths of the "Cloth" item and glued it into the basket. The only negative thing was that I was missing 1 piece of the blue cabinet, but it was easy to email the address given with the kit to resolve this. I did have to wait 28 days for it to arrive, but I had plenty of time before Christmas, so this didn't bother me. The instructions were colored pictures and clearly labeled part numbers that were easy to follow. Doing this kit gave me confidence to make my own miniature room box from scratch. As I worked on my "from scratch" project, it really made me appreciate how the Flever kit has all the materials supplied and assembly methods figured out. I think the kit is a more cost effective way to buy the materials since you often just need an individual bead or a small scrap of fabric but are forced to buy a larger quantity. Overall, I greatly enjoyed building this kit, and the finished product is very satisfying. I can't wait to give it as a gift.

Wish they would make more of these kits. I have it hanging in the dining room with the three other kits. Adorable!

This is the cutest and most lovingly prepared little kit. It even comes with a flyer explaining where you can go for additional instruction. It’s so kindly written. Nothing is pre-assembled and materials are separated into bags making this an incredible learning opportunity. I now know how to make a miniature shelf! I sound like I work for the company! Promise I don’t but I’d accept an offer. ;) I have some tips to make things easier while working on this- for me, Loctite super glue was best- and use parchment paper on your work surface. The hinges on the box were hard to screw into the frame so nail a small hole in first or tiny drill. And! Make sure you save the ever so slightly larger screw for the hanging hardware on the back. Learned the hard way.This is long, I know. The gist is, I love it. That’s all there is to it. I plan to get every single one of these!

Cute idea. I like that it can be hung on the wall. The hinges for the door were extremely hard to do. There needs to be pre drilled holes or something. Also i had to glue the hook on the back because the hanger hole was larger than the screw, and again hard to get screws in.

As you can see I had an amazing time customizing this, up to the point that it is not easily recognizable. I really love the end result! One of my best dioramas ever! Although as I said I Changed many things and used many of my own stuffs. But the original kit is not bad too!

This was fun putting each piece together. I didn't know I was capable to make something and be crafty. I changed the picture in the window to something more appealing to me and make it my own. The instructions are really good, they could be a little more descriptive about how to do it but the pictures really help. I liked this so much I bought three other models to do.

Half the kit is missing from the box.

I had the best time doing this 'picture'. It's the perfect mix of tiny fiddly stuff and larger easier to do stuff. The instructions were clear and simple to follow. Plus, the end result is so fun and so satisfying. (I had a very minor issue. A piece was damaged in shipping/packing. I sent an email to the address included in the instructions and got a very fast response with superior service. )
