Fun but a bit boring!

I bought this as a nice break between art projects. I like a lot of boring crafts, but the paper used for small bottles and juice boxes is medium glossy paper that feels uncomfortable (like nails on a chalkboard) when folded. The paper doesn't fold easily either. I used tweezers for a lot of this, but they didn't come with glue, tape, or glue so I had to buy them before I started the project. The wiring is easy to follow but a hassle because I didn't have any tape. The instructions are not 100% clear but the pictures were helpful. Some parts were so tedious that I felt like giving up halfway through making Takayuki skewers. I also didn't get the green wire and used up all the twine on the bike basket. Luckily I had extra ones from another project. I added cats from another project because I thought it was cute. My music box played the Studio Ghibli Laputa theme, and the screws for it came without bolts, so I don't really understand the meaning of the screws. The music box works, but it wobbles around the house until I find the screws for the other side. Took me a total of 48 hours and I enjoyed it in parts, although a bit of wrinkling was tiring and annoying. The inside of the building is nice too, but I'm sad that you see all this through the window. But if you leave the roof open you can climb in. My favorite part was preparing the tamago sushi. You are so cute! The finished product would make a good gift and at such a low price, it was worth it!
