Love Post Office Update #1

Progress is slow because everything is so small and delicate but I’m having a great time focusing only on what’s in front of me and taking my time.

Look at this cute little postbox! I’m a little sad it’s not functional since everything’s just pieces glued in place.

Here’s me trying to hold this thing in place so it doesn’t tip over while I wait for the glue to dry. I like the way this was implemented, you snip off the excess wire at the end and just glue it on top of the mailbox.

I enjoyed making all the signs!

This is most definitely an older kit. Nothing was pre-cut, so you’ll have to do it all yourself, yes, even the cat with all its curves and lines. I love things to be neat and tidy so I must say I probably spent a lot of time just on the cutting alone. :laughing:

Now I just wish I have 48 hours a day so I can dedicate 24 hours to working on my miniatures alone.

Yay luck you! I hope you have fun! On the other hand, I’m going to be quite busy the next few days and a few events on the weekend I can’t miss lol :smiling_face_with_tear:

Everything is looking so cute. I am not a fan of kits that you need to start from scratch because it takes more time. And my hands and eyes are not as cooperative anymore. I’m starting to feel my real age when I do kits like these.

But you are doing great! I will patiently wait for your next update. Reading through people’s progress is therapeutic to me. :blush:

Thank you! I love reading progress posts too! There’s always something new. :pink_heart:

As much as I love these old kits I do in a way agree with you hahaha. Sometimes I need a break I’ll work on something easier like the book nooks!

Hahaha come onnnn please start with some miniature houses :laughing:

Oh I will! I just have some electronic-system wooden puzzles in my mind first, and maybe some nooks as well :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh I think nooks are a good starting point if you don’t want to jump straight into miniature houses! :blush:
