Thank you for watching my video. I used craft super glue other than the glue come with this kit. I recommend to use craft super glue especially when glueing wires together. I heard some people used gorilla wood glue instead of the glue come with this kit. Please use this as a reference.
I was doing fine with the lights until I hooked it up to the battery box. Won’t even turn on and I’ve tried fixing what I could over and over. I was so excited and had it working until the very last step.
3 weeks after my comment and I'm just now getting to the chair, lol. I was so confused with the instructions of how to use the paper guideline to make the "cover" for the wooden piece. Thank you so much for making this!
I just finished this one today. Whew. The light was a challenge, but I did it. I changed the floor, added stained strips as molding on walls inside and out, stained the base. My stain is watered down acrylic paint. I totally destroyed the chair the first attempt, so I used some fabric I have here to redo it. I just use the glue that came with the kit. I would not recommend this one as a first kit. My first kit was Simons Coffee. Much better for learning on. Correction on glue: Instead of their white glue, I use Aleenes Tacky glue.
I got this and did a nook book of a train before, without prior knowledge on how too, this video has given me insight of what to expect, might just bring it with me to college and work on it there lol
I'm doing this kit now. The electrical on the little chandelier is making me tear my hair out. My BF ended up soldering a plug-in wire for me after a few weeks of frustration.
I got this one for christmas and I just opened it up today. I thought I was sent the wrong pieces because the numbers on the bags didn't seem to match the numbering system in the manual.
I like to see how they make the little items to put in the house first, then setting it all up. I am always saying “ ahh fancy that or that’s how they make it. Thanks for the upload.
I’m surprised this set doesn’t come with a victorian style “wallpaper”. Would have really set it off during final assembly as opposed to the white board.
This is my first kit I'm building now. I came for instructions on the electrical. I'm so intimidated but I'll give it my best try. Wish me luck! Thanks for the video.
Just finished this and I've put together many small house book nook type things and this one was really frustrating. It's tedious and time consuming but if that's what you like go for it. I also did a simplified version of the light fixture.
The floor cavity now makes sense, mine is a completely different batter box which is outfitted behind the wall in another box that you glue to the wall. Still confused about the cut out in the floor (in the back corner).
I used to build miniature dollhouse kits but it had been a few years. I bought this kit because I love books and wanted to return to model making. I DON’T recommend this kit for several reasons. First the main two part bookcase that I tried building was missing the left side. This caused me a lot of frustration. There is no phone number included with the kit to request missing parts. So I set it aside and built the other pieces. I found that the white glue didn’t hold very well but the clear did. I bought school glue at the store which worked fine. I finished all the other furniture pieces and then tried to figure out what to do about the missing piece to the first bookcase. I ended up making a replacement bookcase from cardboard and a glue/spackle mixture to stiffen it. I now have almost completed the kit, except for the chandelier. Only I have discovered that the metal piece(s) that would be used to make the chandelier are missing too. Fortunately I found a cute, easy to build tutorial ceiling lamp on UA-cam and I’m probably going to do that. But I doubt very much that I will ever again waste my money on one of these kits.
Thanks for the video. I'm about 90% done the kit, except I've been struggling with the lighting waaay too much! I'm going to have to buy more of the wire and heat-shrink tubes, as I've had to redo them so many times. Do you know what gauge both the wires and the heat-shrink tubes are approximately? I couldn't find the information on line.
Here's how to do it: Get your sheet of paper that pictures all the pieces. Refer to picture list in instruction book and match up the pieces by holding them over the paper ones. Use a pencil to tick off the pieces you have on the instruction book. Forget about the piece "numbers", just exactly match the wood pieces to the piece diagrams. Make sure you have all the pieces for the bit of furniture you're making before you start assembling.
I am building this right now. How long did you need for the whole thing? Did you glue the picture frames, the vase and everything on top of the shelves at the end?
Took me 2 days but I did it, I pained the walls and floor with my own paints and it looks amazing, I ruined the armchair but it was too crowded for it to fit anyway so I left it out, the set looks amazing and it was my first one
How do you turn on the lights after all the work is done? I've just started to build the first piece of furniture and I notice where there go 5 shelves there is an extra space for another shelf which I will have to make myself. Thank you
I have no idea how to do the seat of the chair because I can not find the cutting template for the seat. I was hoping this video would show me which page it was on, but boo it didn’t
The kit comes with a special glue inside the box. You must glue the pieces as they do not stick together. I don't know why this step is not shown in this video though :(. I came here looking for the type of glue that is used because I want to buy more in case I run out.
@@BingHikkiI just tried to start (after doing a booknook where everything fits perfectly) and got a bit frustrated, now I see this video and I feel a fool because it looks like she keeps it together without glue, mine falls apart all the time, I hated it so much I put everything back on the bags 😢
Am I crazy or is this set kinda wild..like why do the bags have labels if you have to guess what pieces to use. All my instructions say is stuff like 1.wood 11 pieces…FROM WHAT BAG. So dumb
oml it took me a hot minute to figure that out too!! this is my first time trying out these things, and it makes a weird sort of sense when you think about it for long enough! so the first number on the middle line of the labels will tell you what number bag it is, and if there’s brackets after that, that means it’s one of multiple bags! eg. 3(2-1) means it’s bag number 3, that there are 2 of the number 3 bags, and that that bag is the first of the two bags! if you’re struggling to figure out what pieces are which, there’s some schematics at the bottom of the box which you can match the pieces against 1:1 and find what they’re labeled as!! hope that helps! ^_^
I found each piece is color coded, like all the dark wood goes together and all the yellow, so if you separate them by that and follow along with this video, its fairly easy....fairly lol
In my kit, most of the pieces were in various bags, not the exact bags they say in the instructions. I just looked through all the bags to gather the pieces needed.
@@cieleglass502 I had that problem too. I had to search for every part through every bag. That's what caused me to fail on some bookshelfs, I had to break down two bookshelfs and put them back together🙈 I also had the problem that some wooden parts of the bookshelfs were curved and not straight

Was there a rectagle shaped transparent sheet already or did you cut the square transparent sheet into the size you needed
@@mushypotato1776 🏍️ You have to cut it.✂️
I doubt you'll answer this today but, do I glue in the pieces as I go along?
I got this thing for Christmas. I think I am going to cheat on the lighting and pick up a nice PRE ASSEMBLED doll house light. Lol
Same! 😂
Where can you get it from? 🙏🙏
I was doing fine with the lights until I hooked it up to the battery box. Won’t even turn on and I’ve tried fixing what I could over and over. I was so excited and had it working until the very last step.
@@tinabobinaaa Always test everything as you go. That is one reason why I went with pre made lighting.
@@JohnSmith-un9fy I already did. Before I glued it to the ceiling it was working just fine.

My chair looks like a dozen cats have been scratching on it. 😂
mine too - the glue is so damn messy and stringy. it's impossible to get a perfect chair with it
I got dry glue all over mine lol. That chair took me about 45 minutes to do! Monday told me that the glue made the couch look "aged and cooler" 😂
*my dad 😂
Got this for Christmas! Just put the frame and floor together this afternoon. :) Thanks for this helpful video!
I got this and did a nook book of a train before, without prior knowledge on how too, this video has given me insight of what to expect, might just bring it with me to college and work on it there lol
Nvm, I’d be too scared to lose anything or get distracted from my studies lol
These paper flowers are gonna be the end of me!
I hated them lol... I'm dreading the light fixture lol
@ good luck!

Half way through this one. So cute ! I found the chair the hardest with the material 😂
I got this one for christmas and I just opened it up today. I thought I was sent the wrong pieces because the numbers on the bags didn't seem to match the numbering system in the manual.
I also had the same problem. I found that just searching through the bags for the right pieces was easier than trying to understand the manual.
Same
I like to see how they make the little items to put in the house first, then setting it all up. I am always saying “ ahh fancy that or that’s how they make it. Thanks for the upload.
I think the light part is most difficult in this kit .
I’m surprised this set doesn’t come with a victorian style “wallpaper”. Would have really set it off during final assembly as opposed to the white board.
Yeah I’m tempted to use some different paper for the walls and floor!
I’m wallpapering mine and also putting in wood floors. World of difference!
@@DeMasella 🏍️ same here. That floor is for a kitchen.
This is my first kit I'm building now. I came for instructions on the electrical. I'm so intimidated but I'll give it my best try. Wish me luck! Thanks for the video.
How did you get on with it? I must say. It’s the part I’m dreading the most!
beautiful work! thank you for sharing!!!
Espectacular. Muchas gracias por mostrar como se hace, en breve comenzaré a hacerlo, será sin duda de gran ayuda. Gracias ❤❤❤

My bookshelf pieces are warped. The bookwill not go together. 😢
So beautiful!!! 💕💕I really love this kit !! 😻😻😻
Don’t know how to figure out what is what, the number labeling is difficult to understand
Whoever organized this kit, does not understand organization 😂
@@KiiNGMARiiNA 🤣
How do you turn the lights off and on ? Thanks. I'm up to the lights now. Everything else is done.
Came because I could not figure out the non-existent instructions for the chair. Thank you 🙏💕

How do you turn the light on and off and change the batteries if it’s underneath?
You can access the battery pack really easily. Just make sure you glue the heck outta everything so it doesn’t fall apart when you tip it
damn that chair turned out nice, mine turned out much crappier lol
The metal gold wires, I only have two. Do I cut them in half to use them? I can’t find this answer anywhere. Thank you!
Wait, how come you aren’t covered in glue while putting putting the chair together????
oh my god yes. the glue is dreadful! my chair has a vintage look to it because of the stinkin' glue!
Because they sent the cheap glue for using with all materials. I used gorilla wood glue for wood and foam glue for fabric.
Thanks for the video. I'm about 90% done the kit, except I've been struggling with the lighting waaay too much!

super nous somme entrain de la faire c'est un cadeau de noel pour notre fille bravo pour la video merci
So helpful...thank you! The easy chair is really tough and takes someone with small hands and a lot of patience.
Mine came in but mine didn’t come with glue, paint, or batteries and some of the supplies like the rod doesn’t fit
Is it easy to replace the batteries or turn the lights on and off?
it breaks every time i touch it how did you maintain to keep it stable
Glue everything. Get extra glue. The clear glue is best, then use school glue.
@@adriannaramos3181yes thanks, I realized later lol
@@adriannaramos3181do you what did she did to the yellow and white wires? I don’t get it and I’m struggling with the light
I'm curious how long do these actually take to build?
Hi. Dose it matter where the books go ? Or can you just fit them together? Thanks
🏍️ That's the fun part of it. Sam's Study is your study.
My bags aren't labeled. 😒 I'm having to guess at everything.
Here's how to do it:
Get your sheet of paper that pictures all the pieces. Refer to picture list in instruction book and match up the pieces by holding them over the paper ones.
Use a pencil to tick off the pieces you have on the instruction book.
Forget about the piece "numbers", just exactly match the wood pieces to the piece diagrams. Make sure you have all the pieces for the bit of furniture you're making before you start assembling.
Is there a clearer video of how to do the lights please. It is so confusing I'm not sure I can do them.
I am building this right now.
How long did you need for the whole thing? Did you glue the picture frames, the vase and everything on top of the shelves at the end?
🏍️ If it's a work of art, glue everything. If not it's a toy to be bounced around and rearranged i guess.
Thanks 🌼You save me¡
Took me 2 days but I did it, I pained the walls and floor with my own paints and it looks amazing, I ruined the armchair but it was too crowded for it to fit anyway so I left it out, the set looks amazing and it was my first one
Hi i got this for my birthday and i dont understand how to identify which bag is for which part. Can you help please
How do you turn on the lights after all the work is done? I've just started to build the first piece of furniture and I notice where there go 5 shelves there is an extra space for another shelf which I will have to make myself. Thank you

I LOVE it!
So you know there is a transparent part for the teal door. My transparent thing is a square I don’t have a rectangle do I cut it?
Yes
Can someone please tell me what kinds of glue these are? Mine didn’t come with any 😭
clear glue is silicone glue , you can find in craft store .In some country they can not ship glue and paint .
Also mine, it didn't come with any glue, which ones did u use? 😣
Im doing the same set :) how long did this take :3
Hey! Did you end up finishing it? How long was it?
Do you glue the bookcases to the wall or do you just place them against the wall?
The kit comes with a special glue inside the box. You must glue the pieces as they do not stick together. I don't know why this step is not shown in this video though :(. I came here looking for the type of glue that is used because I want to buy more in case I run out.
🏍️ Everything should be glued, or it'll be a mess with many missing pieces before long.

My bags were NOT labeled like this and the instructions are nearly useless as a result
I'm curious about the books
why are tbere 2 copies of them
I think because this is a model of a bookstore, not a study as it's called. So a store would definitely have multiple copies of books.
Décu je n'ai pas réussi l'elctricité 😢 ma lampe ne s'allume pas

hope that helps! ^_^
This is my first time doing a kit. How do you tell which bags the parts for each step are in?
It should tell you on the bag.
So bags normally have letters on them A B C D etc.
The instructions should then say: glue A1 to A7 and so forth
I found each piece is color coded, like all the dark wood goes together and all the yellow, so if you separate them by that and follow along with this video, its fairly easy....fairly lol
