Review on ๐ŸŽ‚ Birthday Dollhouse Miniature Furniture by ROBOTIME by Ryan Foles

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Such a fun project is the best in Dolls & Accessories

Building this greenhouse was so much fun and so rewarding. This was my first time doing something like this and it was VERY exhausting. However, I've always been smart, so this was right up my alley. A few tips: take your time and read the instructions carefully as I think they should be a bit more explanatory. I made a few mistakes like missing one of the watering cans in the instructions, remaking some of the plants, putting in a shelf before I glued the light wire behind it, and not using a tiny guide. Markings on the floor for proper easel placement. Do yourself a favor and buy more glue. I used E6000 glue. I also had some mini clothespins on hand and they were a lifesaver for holding things in place while the glue dried. I definitely recommend getting some at the craft store, I even saw some at Dollar General recently. ONE clip, as recommended in the instructions, will not be enough in my opinion. The paper flowers were definitely the most difficult and frustrating part of the project. I ended up actually buying a small bushel of tiny pink buds and using them on the last few plants because I was DONE with them. Still, I like them better! Be very careful and save on glue when working with plastic coatings. The glue sometimes seeps between the layers of plastic, creating a hazy appearance. Very frustrating. I used leftover moss and greenery to cover most of it nicely. The worst thing for me was that after properly attaching the bracket and wires (which was a big problem) the bulb didn't work! And I checked it beforehand. My sole was crushed when I had to take it apart again. In fact, the lightbulb itself broke somehow. I had to order another one. Hopefully it was just my luck and most people didn't experience that. In general, I am very satisfied with my greenhouse and will definitely build another model in the future.
