This kit has been on my shelf for ages, hard to believe it’s number 15. I’ve found that they occupy a certain niche in my brain. Ideal when I want to make something, but the crafty mojo is gone. They are also good if the world is driving you nuts (I made a lot during the Covid lockdowns) because they are quite mindful. I kept thinking I’m going to alter them, but generally I’m not in the frame of mind to do anything more than follow the instructions
They are mindful, because you really do have you focus, they are not particularly easy, they take a lot of concentration and are very fiddly, especially the smaller more complex ones, like this.
The designers of these kits are really clever, the telescope is some wire, toothpick and beads and a bit of silver tape. But that bedside table gave me no end of hassle.
WOW! The whimsy of this little world makes it all the more delightful. I’m glad you had it at the ready for your convalescence.

There is nothing like a project that takes you out of your normal head space for a bit…glad you had it to help you over your COVID crap. So many tiny, tiny details…I love the weathervane and the little elephant ears in the garden!
That’s a fabulous one! My little companion has a summer bucket list item “go on a ferris wheel” and so I’m particularly taken with that part of this mini. Can’t wait to see your finished one!

You are either a bit “off” or passionate about these tiny worlds! Amazing…the ferris wheel in the tv is going to be epic!
