Takes patience to put together. It is for crafty people.!
This is the cutest little house. If itâs perfect on my daughterâs book nook, she enjoyed putting it together in the light inside of it makes it exquisite. It adds the perfect little fairytale touch.

Fun to build. Great for newbies.
This was my first ever book nook and it was fun to build. After looking at many reviews, I decided to choose this one as a newbie. I also bought a few extra tools that other reviews recommended that did come in handy. Since finishing this one I’ve purchased 5 more sets. This was the easiest and most rewarding to complete. I like that you didn’t have to cut out the paper elements and that the backing was a sticker. I’ve done other sets that were time consuming because you has to use an exacto knife and glue for the floors, walls and decorations.

Stylish and Well-Made
I helped my wife build this for our bookshelf display. It doesn’t feel as sturdy as it ends up being though I would stress patience and firmness because the smaller bits can certainly bend unfortunately. But the aesthetics it provides, especially the simple little lights, adds a lot of flair to a plain shelf.

Magic in a box!
Like a good book, this is a project that’s hard to put down.This model garden house is just adorable once completed. It does require some skill and a good amount of patience. Plan for a full day of “construction”.Hint: the glue doesn’t look like glue. We didn’t find it until the end – so used wood glue, which worked fine.The electric has some challenges, so you may need to bring in “a consultant”, unless you are familiar with electricity. 🙂 Overall, a wonderful gift for family or friend over 20.

Perfect book greenhouse!
I love this once it’s put together. It is definitely not one for someone without patience. It comes in a flat box and does require assembly. The “glass” panels are tricky to put on and it does have tiny pieces. The details are abundant from the tiny books to the window that opens. The plant in the tiny rainboots!! ð The pieces just snap together. I would buy this again for a green thumb!

So much fun to make!!!
I absolutely loved putting this together. Tons of fun and Iâm definitely getting more. Some of the pieces were fragile, but I makes sense. Highly recommend this product from this particular manufacturer (itâs sold under many different namesâ¦).

So enjoyable we are looking at others by this brand
Well cut pieces fit nicely together with simple to follow instructions resulting in a beautiful piece. My 13yo loved this gift so much, sheâs wanting to buy another kit with her own money.

Great hobby
This kit was purchased as a gift for my niece who worked on it right away. Needless to say, she loves it.

This was so much fun to build. The instructions were precise and the bags and boards were all labeled, making the whole process frustration free. This is only my second build but has been my favourite. Itâs cute and airy feeling and when you look in from the front, all the layers pull your eyes to the back, giving it an ultra 3D feeling of wanting to go into it. I built this as a gift for someone but like it so much that I would buy it for myself again.When building:The step near the end of the instructions says âwrap all three black wires together and tape.â You also need to wrap all three red wires together and tapeâ¦but that is missing from the instructions. When you wrap the stickers around small pieces of wood to make posters for the basket, the instructions say to wrap so they are not long (wrapping vertically) but it should say wrap horizontally so you get taller posters for the basket.It came with white glue. But I suggest having some gorilla glue and tweezers to help with the build, as a couple items need a quicker hold. You also need scissors. The set comes with a wooden ruler and a tweezer-like wooden tool (which I didnât find until part way through -item I6- which you punch out of a wooden board).The tiny white square straw is not in one large piece but in two small pieces. This differs from the instructions but is not a problem.There are extra parts for many of the small bits. When making books you use stickers as the covers, which is less time consuming than paper covers you need to cut out and place. I much prefer this set for those details.The electrical worked perfectly, which I was worried about because you canât really test it beforehand. My last set the electrical was intermittent and this one works perfectly.Donât hesitate. This will bring you joy.

I got this for my sister for her book shelf. It’s such a cute idea, something she can put together and use it as a little shelf divider. I plan to get a different themed one for myself.

my first Rolife! finished in two days. instructions were very clear but had a few extra pieces in the end. the hardest part was the bendy stairs as the joints are very delicate, I ended up snapping mine into two pieces, trying to insert them into the connecting joints. very fun if you need something to do infront of the tv
