Whimsy Toy Shop, DIY Miniature House, 14+, 81 Pieces, DS044

DIY miniature toy shop kit for ages 14+ that gives a beginner a short, one-evening build and a finished shelf display.

Whimsy Toy Shop is a pocket-sized red-brick storefront from the Rolife Tiny Stores series. The finished model has a curved roofline, a red front door, a “Playland of Wonders” sign and a window display with a teddy bear, a blue elephant in a party hat and a bunny. Outside, a pink rocking horse, a small yellow-and-blue Ferris wheel and a stack of toy boxes complete the scene. The 81 parts are made of wood board, paper and plastic and are put together by following the printed manual. It is the easiest level in the range (1 out of 5) and takes about one hour, so it suits a first miniature kit, a desk decoration or a small gift. It is part of a series that also includes Pawfect Pet Shop, Magic Astronomy Shop, Green Fountain Garden, Melody Instrument Shop and Sweet Chocolate Shop, so several shops can be lined up side by side.
