FAQ’s

What’s Inside The Box?

Each kit includes pre-cut, pre-painted wooden pieces, step-by-step instructions, LED lighting components, and any specialty materials needed for the scene.
Glue is not included due to shipping restrictions.

Is This Beginner-friendly?

Yes! All of our kits come with clear, step-by-step instructions to guide you through the process. Some kits have more pieces than others, but with a bit of patience, anyone can enjoy building them. Still unsure? Feel free to reach out. We’re happy to recommend the perfect beginner-friendly option for you!

How Long Does It Take To Build?

On average, most builders complete their kit in 6–15 hours. Some enjoy stretching it out over a few relaxing evenings. It all depends on the number of pieces and your preferred pace. There’s no rush. Just enjoy the process!

What Kind Of Glue Should I Use?

We recommend using clear gel tacky glue. It works perfectly with our kits.
Pro tip: After applying the glue, hold the pieces together for a few seconds to let them set. Then give it a few minutes to dry before moving on. This helps everything stay securely in place for a smooth building experience.

I bought this for my 9yo for Christmas. It is labeled for much older than he is, but we did it together, and had a blast doing so. I had to limit working on it to an hour at a time in an attempt to enjoy it longer, he was obsessed! The attention to detail is awesome-the little book covers are so detailed, even. Great value, and it turned out perfect. Very happy I got to do this with my son.

This is a beautiful nook book. However, it is the hardest one I have done, especially the staircase. Double check the position of each piece (left or right) and glue in as it is unstable when adding other pieces and will fall apart. Take your time and glue the smaller pieces and leave to dry as is very fragile. The light positions and side lamp take a while to work out where they go.

War mir zuerst nicht sicher, ob man dieses Projekt als erstes nehmen sollte, aber es hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt!
Material wirkt sehr hochwertig und ließ sich sehr gut ausstechen und verbauen, auch wenn bei manchen Teilen / Bauprozessen minimal Frust aufkam. Das lag dann aber eher an der eigenen Grobmotorik..

Tipp für alle: Keinen einfachen Sekundenkleber kaufen, sondern Nagelkleber mit Pinsel!! Erleichtert es extrem!

Wife put it together herself. We knew it had a million tiny pieces but she really liked the process. It looks great on our shelf.

This is amazing I have been wanting one of these for the last couple of years and finally I took the plunge and got this one I love books and this is going to go on my shelves inbetween them. It's harder then it looks but it comes with all of the instructions that your going to need and it comes with the light pack but the only problem is that there is no glue so its one of the things you need to make sure that it dose not fall apart Ive ordered some and then I can really get started on it the instructions are easy to follow there just pictures because the writing is in chinese but you get the meaning of what it means easily there are a lot of parts to this kit so it's going to take me a while to finish it but I already love it.

It's amazing when it's lit up after dark it's so cool

This book nook did not disappoint! First book nook I’ve ever built and turned out great. Instructions were detailed with pictures so made it easy to figure out where things needed to go. Wiring of the lights was super easy the instructions made it very simple to figure out where things needed to go.

I was surprised at the quality of the laser-cut wood in this kit! The precision cuts made it easy and fun to assemble, and the included instructions are usable.

The amount of detail packed into this kit is truly impressive! I would recommend this to any family or detail-oriented kid, it’s a blast!

I absolutely love the theme of this book nook kit! As a huge reader with a pretty extensive book collection, this one felt like it was made just for me. It fits so well into my bookshelf setup and adds such a fun, personal touch to the space.

The quality is quite good for a book nook kit. I’ve completed several from various brands and this one is right on par in terms of material and pricing. It took me about 8 hours to complete from start to finish, and I genuinely had a great time putting it all together.

One thing I really appreciated was that a lot of the pieces slotted together securely without needing glue, which made the process smoother and a bit less messy. The assembly instructions were easy to follow and straightforward, so it’s a great option even if you’re new to building kits like this.

Overall, it turned out beautifully and makes for the perfect piece of bookshelf decor. I’d definitely recommend it to any fellow bookworm.

I've wanted one of these for a while. This was packaged very well and came with step by step guide on how to piece everything together. It is time consuming and it is very intricate. Picture shows how small the books are for example. But if your like me and love a challenge then I would recommend this. It does take patience and this is where I am at 2 days into it around work, kids etc. very sturdy wood and they do slot into place with slight pressure, luckily I had some glue, as you do need glue in some areas of building. I would highly recommend this. The detailing that's in this book nook is outstanding.

A fun build

This was my third nook, and was a lot of detail and more time consuming.
Well made, but had to do some fiddling to get some parts together, especially the roof section.

Hi Bronwyn, thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad you enjoyed your third book nook. The Ancient Library definitely has lots of little details and can be a more time-consuming build. We appreciate your feedback about the roof section as well, and hope you love how your finished build turned out! 📚

Excellent product...I enjoyed putting it together. If you enjoy putting together model kits this is an excellent alternative especially if you are a beginner.

I thoroughly enjoyed putting this together - it's the 6th one I've done so far😊 I agree with one of the comments in that there are a lot of fiddly parts - the books being one of them! Whilst the instructions were clear, I did find the section on the lighting slightly confusing at times, but I managed to work it out. My only criticism is that not all the pieces 'clicked into place, therefore with some pieces not as sturdy as I would like. In addition, I also found the stairs tricky/fiddly to construct so in the end, I left out a few of the pieces. Despite these few teething problems I do believe that this is still worthy of 5 stars as I'm genuinely pleased with the finish.

Got this for Christmas, took 4 hours to put together. Love it!!! Never worked with anything like this before, so good for beginners, just take your time and don't rush, and you will have a beautiful tiny study for your study!

Bought for adult daughter for Christmas. She loves books and dreams of creating a library in the future. This will be a perfect addition. Looks good quality and a lovely size. Not done one before and gone straight in to the advanced on! Hopefully seeing the end result will keep us going when putting together 🤞🏻

prodotto di qualità molto buona, istruzioni chiare e in italiano, attrezzi in dotazione utili (c'è anche il martellino).
occorre MOLTA pazienza, occhi buoni e una buona luce...e tanta colla, che torna utile nell'assemblaggio finale, per evitare che si stacchino pezzetti nel provare a chiudere "la stanza".
io non sono una persona paziente, nè brava nei lavori di precisione manuale ( in un certo momento mi sono giocato il paradiso di questa vita, e forse anche delle prossime ), quindi direi che se ce l'ho fatta io, è alla portata di tutti.
visto il risultato credo ne comprerò altri....e magari me la prenderò con più calma!!
