CUTEBEE Dollhouse Miniature with Furniture, DIY Wooden DollHouse Kit, 1:24 Scale Creative Room for Valentine's Day Gift Idea-Rose Garden Tea House

Our daughter saw one of these super cute doll houses at one of our creative friends. She promptly put one on her Christmas wish list. As a 10-year old she has some craft modelling experience but less so with wood and cardboard. However, I’m quite craft modeller, so this was to be a joint-project that took weeks to complete given the vast range of tiny accessories, which is excellent for the cosy winter months.Upon arrival I was impressed by the weight of the colourful box and the contents. It is very well presented and looks very complete.The different components are well cut and printed. There are led lights included (requiring 2x AAA batteries), and a poor quality wind up music player. But also many plants, a selection of furniture, books, vases, chairs, deserts, cakes, side tables, miniature tea bags ect.I should say that a few of the building parts could have fitted better so some reworking may be necessary for a satisfying result. The model doesn’t require any painting. But we have applied a few painted details here and there to add to the realism.The tools that are required are; a metal ruler, a pair of tweezers, a marking pencil, a super sharp precession hobby knife, a cutting pad, sewing pins, blue tac and a selection of glue clips. And we used a selection of glues but regular PVA glue would do as well.We took it very easy so the project took us about 10 weeks with a number of extremely enjoyable 1 hour sessions per week. A parts sheet is included and a colour printed, detailed English manual. Though there is also a YouTube instruction video available.The house is purely for display and not really a play-doll house for children. Even though children will be amazed by it and will nevertheless be tempted to touch it and play with it.When I bought it, I found it expensive, but the set is really worth the money. And I’m sure we will buy an other set like these in the future. It makes a great gift for anyone who is a bit creative and into craft. Though for someone with less experience; its requires a lot of fiddling and patience.

This is an excellent kit . Well designed and detailed.Assembly good 👍

Love this tearoom and am very impressed with the end result, there is so much detail on the inside that it make you want to peer inside. However like others have said the front roof parts do not fit together very well at all and left a huge gap, that you couldn't cover with foliage. Luckily we were able to fabricate our own panels to get a perfect fit. This was my second kit i have made and started a new hobby....

What a beautiful thing. Haven't started putting it together yet, but I know I will enjoy

I’ve done a fair few of these mini kits and I think this is my least favourite for a number of reasons.Firstly, the roses are waaaaaay too big, I pulled some of the outer petals off so they were more the scale with the tea room. Also, the roof doesn’t fit well leaving gaps as other reviewers have mentioned. The instructions are not the best, you have to pay careful attention to the pictures as some of the steps aren’t explained at all. I didn’t have any missing parts thankfully and the music box is a nice addition. I’m not sure I’d recommend this, the issue with the roof especially is a concern.

Honestly couldn't think of any downsides. The instructions are clear to follow with templates and separate bags for each of the elements. Small enough that it takes concentration but not to fiddly that you loose you patience. Looks fab when finished!

This is a great little model kit. I’ve done quite a few of these now, but this one took me a good couple of weeks on and off to complete. It didn’t come with any glue, so that’s worth bearing in mind. The dust cover was also a welcome addition, as I can imagine getting dust off all the flowers etc. would be a pain. Overall, I was really pleased with the finished product. I’d definitely recommend for anytime looking for a fun project to sink your teeth in to 😁

Very very pretty kit with lots of beautiful, quality components including the upgraded acetate for the glass house and it not only has lights but a music box. However, I bought several kits to choose from for making Christmas presents this year and couldn’t keep all of them. I have chosen to return this one as I won’t have the time to make it in time as there is so much to do but one day I might make it for myself.
