You made it look so easy to assemble, thanks.

[@AridaBjd]

Thank you very much dear Sabrina! I'm very happy that you found it helpful! I have 3 short videos about how to bend a black wire, the backrest part of the stool: kzbin.infoll6CWSUGP2s?feature=share the newspaper holder: kzbin.infobib2zGsgwAM?feature=share I only had enough for one half, so the second half is made of thin wire. I hope it's okay. the handles of the cups and the lamp: kzbin.infoS-3ZzKRRe6Y?feature=share . I use tweezers and a regular metal ruler to bend paper parts. About glue I use B-7000. I'm very happy with this glue (slow-acting, transparent, invisible and holds well, the tube has a nice nozzle and needle designed cap that prevents clogging, all the small glue drops are well controlled and it's perfect for gluing anything that looks like glass). Before this, I tried many different ones but B-7000 glue is much better. If you'll have any questions, please ask, I'm always happy to help! Happy crafting and good luck with your kit!

Ah so I could use one of my base coat gels then? How do you get it to cure though?

[@AridaBjd]

Sure, but if it's not sticky base. About me I use "Soak-off" glossy top coat because all the bases I are sticky and leave a tacky residue after curing. I have UV/LED lamp with removable bottom that attached to the lamp with a magnet so I can remove it when I need to cure dust cover or any other big parts. It have timer and sensor so it turns on when you place something in the lamp, it can be activated by pressing the button, but I think that using sensor is much more convenien

Doing this at the moment. I didn't like the outer brick wall and the floor. So i changed them to a red brick wall and wooden floor. Lovely little project.😊

[@AridaBjd]

Great idea! Do you have Instagram? I would like to see your finished kit because I also like this kit, but I don’t like the white bricks. The red brick wall look much more interesting and fit better, it’s a pity that the inside walls are so good and had to be covered with external white walls. I can imagine your kit, and everything sounds very stylish and much better!

[@michele3051]

C'est adorable ❤❤ et en lisant vos commentaires, je me rends compte que vous aussi. Je suis abonnée et vraiment très intrigue par ces kits. J'ai bien l’intention d’essayer. Seule ou avec ma filleule (seule aussi je crois, j'ai encore une âme d’enfant).😂😂 A bientôt

[@AridaBjd]

Bonjour! Merci beaucoup chère Michèle! Je suis très heureux et j'apprécie vraiment! Bien sûr, essayez-le, ce passe-temps incroyable est à la fois très excitant et apaisant! J'ai acheté le premier set en 2020 alors que je m'ennuyais à cause du confinement et maintenant je ne peux plus m'arrêter! J'ai plus de boîtes avec de nouveaux sets que je n'ai le temps d'en fabriquer ! Puis-je vous donner quelques conseils concernant la colle? J'ai essayé beaucoup de choses et je veux que vous commenciez à travailler avec les meilleurs d'entre eux, J'utilise la colle B-7000. Elle agit lentement, est 100 % transparente, invisible et tient bien. Elle est parfaite pour coller tout ce qui ressemble à du verre. Le tube est doté d'une jolie buse et d'un capuchon conçu avec une aiguille qui empêche le colmatage. Toutes les petites gouttes de colle sont bien contrôlées. Avant cela, j'en ai essayé plusieurs différentes, mais la colle B-7000 est bien meilleure. Mais veuillez noter qu'après avoir collé les murs, il est préférable d'attendre qu'ils collent bien, il est donc préférable de coller les murs et de laisser agir toute la nuit. De plus, c'est une colle à action lente et vous pouvez la déplacer une fois collée. Elle tiendra aussi bien que la super colle, mais si vous avez collé quelque chose avec de la super colle, rien ne peut être déplacé ou modifié. Pour les plantes et l'herbe, je préfère la super colle à action rapide (par exemple, j'aime la super colle en gel de Henkel) car il faudra trop de temps pour tout coller. Mais vous pouvez fabriquer chaque kit avec uniquement la B-7000. (T-7000, T-8000 sont très bons aussi)! J'apprécie beaucoup vos aimables paroles! Je vous souhaite du succès avec les maisons de poupées que vous choisissez, n'hésitez pas à demander si vous avez des questions et je me ferai un plaisir de vous aider, vous et votre filleule, avec des conseils ! Passez de bonnes vacances!

Another perfect cafe! I just bought same kit!

Thank you very much Nines! I wish you get your kit as soon as possible!

[@skayler6348]

finally the perfect tutorial. I'm thinking of buying this kit now on offer. I've never done one and I don't know if this is suitable for a beginner. I follow you from Piedmont in Italy. hi!!! any advice is welcome!!

[@AridaBjd]

Thank you very much dear! 🌹❤You are so kind! Wow! 😍😍😍😍😍It is definitely one of the most beautiful countries and one of the most beautiful places ever! I have never been there but I hope to visit it someday! What a wonderful place, everything is so beautiful there! My sister was there and she was so happy and so in love with this beautiful place! About this kit: Yes, it's a great choice! All the kits from this collection are small, but they are really best for beginners. All this cute details are not so tiny and not very big, so you can make all really easy. Please sorry for answering late again! Just saw the message! I try to answer all messages and I will definitely do so! We figured out the wire and the glue too. I am very happy that I was able to help! I don't know if my answer is still relevant? Please ask any questions and I will be happy to answer them all, but I don't promise it will be quick! Good glue is half the battle and I am sure that when you find the right glue (B-7000) it will be much easier and fun to make all the next rooms you have and all the next dollhouses! So good luck and have a lot of inspiration! 😽😻💗

Please could you explain to me how you fold the backrest part of the stools, the newspaper holder and the handles of the cups so well? Thank you. They turned out really badly for me! help!!

@@skayler6348 Thank you very much dear! ❤ I'm very happy that you found it helpful! I use tweezers and a regular metal ruler to bend paper parts. About glue I use B-7000.

But you can make every kit with B-7000 only. I use it now, but I made this kit a long time ago so I used other glue Crystal Transparent Glue by Henkel. (I checked Amazon and these glue disappeared a few months ago. As for me, I buy it at a small local store and they are always there. But you can find the same glue by Pattex. As far as I know they are the same but with a different name). I used it before I found B-7000 and the result was great. I still use it for paper craft projects because it's much cheaper than B-7000, I had left over and it can be found at the nearest local store. It's perfect for paper and textile because it's almost invisible and has a rubber texture. And if you can't find B-7000 I recommend you to glue transparent parts (beads, lamps etc.) with Hard UV resin "QIAO QIAO DIY" instead of glue to create a beautiful transparent glass effect. It's clear acrylic resin that gets cured under UV or direct sunlight. Or you can use UV gel nail polish. But please note that it must not be sticky "Soak-off" top. If I have glue somewhere where it shouldn't be, I paint it on top with UV resin or nail polish because it's better to have a glossy glass or water effect than just a white patch of glue. If you'll have any questions, please ask! Good luck with all your next kits and happy crafting!

What battery name did you use?

[@AridaBjd]

LR 44 (or AG 13) three button batteries

[@donovanamenta]

What type of glue do you use for this? It says in the instructions thst i need glue for this and ive tried several kinds, (glue stick, elmers glue, etc) and the wood never sticks together! 😭 so do you have a recommendation for glue to use or am i doing it wrong and i need to use something else??(tape, glue gun, etc) 😭😭

[@AridaBjd]

It's perfect for paper and textile because it's almost invisible and has a rubber texture. About a hot glue is terribly difficult to use and this glue does not hold well. All the glue sticks and white glue are the worst I have tried, at first everything looked good, but after a while something happens to the glue and all the paper parts just fall apart, as if they were not glued at all. Please don't be upset, I didn't have glue either and I want to tell you why that's because in many countries liquids are prohibited for transportation by the rules so even if the seller puts the glue in you parcel, the postal employees will get it out. Same about accumulators and batteries - they can't be shipped too. If the package was delivered by air, then there will be no glue, but if the package was delivered by land or by boat, then the glue will be in the box. They made these doll houses for their domestic market and all this kits can be bought in their local stores. That's why some people have glue in their boxes, but we didn't. I hope you'll find the B-7000 because it's really the best one you can have! Happy crafting and good luck with your kit!

[@lynnedwards9072]

Just completed this one and the only fiddly bit was the dust cover! Couldn’t get the glue to stick the perspex together! What a mess it looks!

[@AridaBjd]

I recommend you a very good glue B-7000 clear, but it is slow-acting, after you glue 2 parts together you have to wait and then glue the third one. But the result worth it - it is 100% transparent, invisible and holds great! In my opinion, this is the best glue for gluing anything that looks like glass. Before this, I tried many different ones: super glue, hot glue and even epoxy resin, UV gel, and gel nail polish (by the way, UV gel did a good job and it can be nice for small parts but about dust cover B-7000 glue is a thousand times better. Congratulations on completing your cute kit! By the way, when I used other glue before I tried B-7000 if I had glue somewhere where it shouldn't be, I paint it on top with UV resin because sometimes it's better to have a glossy glass or water effect than just a white patch of glue (Hard UV resin "QIAO QIAO DIY" - clear acrylic resin that gets cured under UV or direct sunlight in minutes. It's perfect to create water and other liquids effects) or nail polish (when I run out of epoxy resin I use UV gel nail polish from Kodi. But please note that it must be not sticky "Soak-off" top)

[@mimi_ust]

How do you do the lighting i dont understand!!!! I really need a tutorial of how to put the wires together 😭😭😭😭

[@AridaBjd]

Hi! You need to connect wires with same colors together (the grey wire from the LED needs to be connected to the grey one from the battery box and the white LED wire needs to be connected to the white one from the box. You need to put one wire to another, you can twist these wires together, but just a little bit so you can easily disconnect them if your kit is not finished yet). Please install batteries into the battery box (twist the screws out, open it and put 3 button batteries AG13 (LR44) downwards), turn it on. Do you have light now? If yes - that's great, after you finish your kit, you need to to twist all this wires little bit more and wrap up the copper parts with some white tape, each of them need to be wrapped separately (white wires when they are connected together can't touch the grey ones). And if your answer is "no" please let me know and I'm gonna tell you what to do in this way. If your wires are broken (I have never had this happen before, but it's possible), then I'll write you how to replace this wire with a wire from the most ordinary garland, which runs on the same batteries (such garlands are very cheap and can be found on AliExpress, I’m sure that in houses with LED lamps they use pieces from these garlands plus a battery box with their logo)

[@mimi_ust]

I managed to do it, thanks!

Welcome! ❤ If you'll have any questions, please ask, I'm gonna be happy to help!

Took me all day, but I finally finished it and I'm soo happy with it!! There's one question I have though, what should I use to glue the casing together? I've been using a hot glue gun, but I can't use that to stick the panels for the casing because it shows through and looks a bit messy which I don't want. Any suggestions? ❤

[@AridaBjd]

@@mimi_ust That's great! Congratulations with your finished kit! I recommend you a very good glue B-7000 clear (or T-7000, T-8000 are very good too), but it is slow-acting, after you glue 2 parts together you have to wait and then glue the third one. But the result worth it - it is 100% transparent, invisible and holds great! PS: I'm so sorry that I had no opportunity to answer you earlier, I hope that my answer is still relevant and I can help! For some reason, sometimes I don’t receive notifications of replies to replies, and so I can't see them until I click on the first reply.

[@lynnedwards9072]

Thank you. My nails are gelled like this and I know what you mean! It’s so much easier to remove the glue isn’t it! Just started another kit - The Ice Cream Parlour by Craft n Co. Bought it in Action shop here in France! They’re so cheap! Paid 9.99 euros! Lots to do in this one and lots of painting too which I don’t like! 🙃

[@AridaBjd]

You are always welcome! ❤ If you'll have any questions, please ask, I'm gonna be very happy to help! Sounds interesting and I like the price! I haven’t seen this set yet, but judging by the name it’s probably very cute, I love small cozy ice cream shops, miniature cafes and pastry shops! Yes, I don’t like painting parts either, I was assembling a kit from Robotime and there were a lot of parts to paint, as well as plywood walls, I applied a lot of layers, but it didn’t turn out smoothly or beautifully. They probably somehow dip the part into a large bowl of paint or apply the paint with a spray, which is why they always have it so perfectly smooth and beautiful. I applied it with a brush and it was not easy, painting took longer than assembling the whole set!

[@XxxOwNeD89xxX]

Loved it, what kind of glue did you use ?

[@AridaBjd]

Thank you very much!❤ My favorite is slow-acting "MOMENT CRYSTAL transparent glue by Henkel". I use it for paper and textile because it's almost invisible and has a rubber texture. I use it for gluing paper on wooden parts, cloth, paper and flowers. It perfectly glues wallpapers, floor and all other small paper boxes. And the second one is: Fast action "Adhesive MOMENT GEL by Henkel". This adhesive bonds very quickly and holds walls, furniture and other items. With this glue, I glue wire, metal parts, wood parts, small cup handles, etc. So I always use both

[@miniNmini]

Great work!❤❤❤❤

[@AridaBjd]

Thanks a lot dear! ❤

[@Florrgilli]

I love how you make it seem so easy and your nails are so clean in the process! I'm doing this kit at the moment, i can say my fingers are full of glue😂 what tools do you use to help yourself?

[@AridaBjd]

Thank you very much! ❤ To tell the truth, it takes me much longer to wipe the glue off my fingers and nails than to assemble the house 😂 I also noticed that it is much easier to remove glue from gel polish than from nails without it. As for the tweezers, it seems that they were in some kind of manicure set. I use this tweezers when I am gluing pieces together. About glue, my favorite is slow-acting "MOMENT CRYSTAL transparent glue by Henkel" (or Patex, they have same). I use it for paper and textile because it's almost invisible and has a rubber texture. I use it for gluing paper on wooden parts too. It's very easy to wipe off your fingers. And the second one is: Fast action "Adhesive MOMENT GEL by Henkel" (or Patex). This adhesive bonds very quickly and holds walls, furniture and other items. But it's good for fabric, so I always use both. This glue is very difficult to remove, so when I glue with this glue I always use tweezers to help myself.

[@lynnedwards9072]

I’m currently making this one and used wood effect sticky backed plastic for the outer wall base and seat covers. Fingers covered in glue as always!

[@AridaBjd]

This is a great idea! Sounds much better than just paper. I want to make this set again and also change both the chairs and the outer walls, and leave the rest unchanged. Although, maybe I’ll try a different pattern on the floor so that the finished sets would be more different. Same about me! To tell the truth, it takes me much longer to wipe the glue off my fingers and nails than to assemble the kit! I also noticed that it is much easier to remove glue from gel polish than from nails without it

[@alessandracamarillo4409]

Disculpe e hecho el mismo proseso en pegar las maderas rectangulares de la base pero no cabe por dentro el cuadrado del piso 😢 no estiendo si las medidas estan equivocados o si soy yo la que lo hace mal

[@AridaBjd]

No estés triste por favor ❤, el kit incluye papel de lija, úsalo para cambiar los bordes hasta que encaje en su lugar. Esto también me pasó una vez, tal vez se equivocaron y pusieron un cuadrado de madera un poco más grande, según tengo entendido, los cortaron con una máquina y se pudieron haber equivocado. Cuando inserto el cuadrado, el pegamento aún no está completamente pegado, presiono con fuerza el cuadrado y encaja en su lugar. Pero igual te aconsejo que cambies los bordes con papel de lija para no romper el marco.
