[Beginner Tips] Have any of you done these before?

Has anyone done one of these before? I was gifted this tiny thing and now I’m scared. It sooooooooooooo small

I am thinking these old eyes will struggle to do this one It looks beautiful and really cute but dang… get my magnifying glasses out.

As for my seahorse barque… I don’t wanna talk about it. This kit makes me so frustrated. So fragile. Parts so tiny. I have to wax a lot of parts just to make them fit correctly without breaking a piece. Which of course I have done so on a lot of parts already. Thankfully there are extras but man it’s definitely trying me.

Have a great Wednesday everyone. Go out and pet an an animal.

Ummm…David , I think you forgot to add the picture…so I am unsure if I have done one so small that it’s invisible… :wink:

Fragile pieces are a nightmare to work with, even there’s spare pieces but it’s definitely no fun when everything keeps testing you. Also, going out and petting an animal? I like this :laughing: I’m a self proclaimed cat lady so I will gladly pet a few :joy:

which is tiny? and side note, yes the seahorse has tiny fragile parts. I waxed so many things just to get them in to place but it taught me such a valuable lesson and that is, “Wax is not just for gears!”

Hang in there, take a breath and a break. You got this!

I am crossing out this Barque on my list lol! What tiny thing are you working on aside from this fragile boat? Lol. Keep your cool, it will be more rewarding in the end. Hope you have a happy wednesday! It’s raining again here in Hawaii.

Oh wow, that really is tiny! I’d definitely be getting the magnifying glasses ready for this one. And the seahorse kit sounds like it’s testing your patience, but I’m sure you’ll conquer it eventually! Good luck with both!

I’ve not done one before, in fact I don’t think I’ve ever seen these kits before but I sure am intrigued now - I can’t wait to see your finished item

I might need to go find one for myself now :sweat_smile: another craft kit to add to my ever increasing pile :grimacing:
