Review on ๐Ÿ  ROBOTIME Miniature Dollhouse - Perfect Gift for Girlfriend by Jason Wright

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fascinating. Time flies so fast!

Great fun for the 65 year old who has loved miniature things since childhood. So, although the kit says it comes with all the necessary supplies, I've added a few of my own, like curved reversible tweezers, some draping and stiffening fluid for a few small boxes and bags, and a blue teapot. a sharp sewing needle, white gloss enamel for the walls (because I didn't think the white acrylic included in the kit had a good finish), off-white rope to replace the raffia "rope" around some of the boxes, and a few other little things. My husband comes out on the porch where I have set up a craft table and is always amazed at my tiny crafts but says it will drive him crazy because he has no patience. I told him that this would probably be his idea of hell. Doomed to collect miniature dollhouse items for all eternity. haha! The instructions are pretty clear for the most part, except for a few things, but it's not hard to figure out what goes where. A note. keep everything! I found out yesterday while trying to raise the walls and install the floor. Well, the base of the floor turns out to be a piece of wood from which all the little clothespins, cutting boards and kitchen utensils are carved. The rest is used for the underbody. Unfortunately I figured the leftover piece would make a great cutting board so I wouldn't scratch the table I'm working on. I made two of these and threw away the rest. My husband cut me a new chipboard floor so everything is fine now. Don't be afraid to get creative or change what you don't like or doesn't work for you. You don't have to make it look like the picture. make it yours :) Have fun and I have already ordered two more sets. One is a music room/man cave and the other is a Christmas room. It takes a lot of patience and is definitely NOT for small children. unfortunately, and nothing I've done will fix it. I contacted the seller, Robotime, and they went above and beyond my expectations in solving the problem. Thanks very much! :)
