Part of the DIY Miniature House series, Miller’s Garden is a dainty model indeed. This set invites you to construct your very own garden room! Plant lovers will appreciate the flower boxes, bits of ornate fencing, and trailing plants all about. It looks just like a garden inside of a home with furniture and decorations mixed in with the surrounding plants. These model rooms look amazing on a bookshelf all lit up with the included ambient lights! Materials are plywood, metal, fabric, and paper. Requires 2 AAA batteries.

Category Description for Diy Miniature House Kits
Students of all ages with an eye for detail, décor, construction, architecture, and miniatures will enjoy the completeness of these kits. Each element has to be built using the pieces provided. What an exercise in patience! True model-builders will want to do them all! I like that you can select from a variety of levels, from a wee kitchen-corner setting to a complete greenhouse build. Instructions are image-based with very little reading.
I used to have actual dollhouses that were a 1:12 scale (one inch in the dollhouse equaled one foot in real life). The kits seem close to this scale. While the separate kits do not assemble to create an actual dollhouse, you could display them on a bookshelf and create the sense of a dollhouse-type project. You could have a high school art student add a kit as an element of an art credit.
If you have a child who can focus for a long time, they may want to work on their kit non-stop! However, most will choose to complete one or two components at a time. Materials are often cardstock, wood, fabric, with some metal and occasional plastic. Any batteries for lights are included, as well as adhesives and paint. You will need your own scissors. The many small parts make these not safe for young children.
There are currently 3 sizes of kits. The smaller kits in green boxes are the simplest. Light blue boxes are medium size with intermediate challenge. And the largest kits are the most detailed. These are in brown boxes.
