Just finished this tiny theme park. “Starlight Amusement Park”- by CUTEROOM
It’s pretty cute. I like that it is portable. But I can’t say that I recommend this kit because it really puts you through a lot. I like kits that have a lot of things to do but it needs to be reasonably possible. Some of the cutouts are way too small and have blurry printing. Everything is just glossy paper from the back of the instructions. It’s not ideal for me.
If you enjoy this kit, that is ok. I just wouldn’t personally recommend.
Hey!! I’ve also done this one!! It is very tiny, and I agree, I’m not a huge fan of the glossy paper that Cuteroom builds usually have! Your build turned out great, you did an awesome job with all the little tiny pieces!!
It’s really nice to hear from someone else who attempted this. I feel like you understand where I’m coming from even if you had different experiences. Or the same. It’s ok. It’s all valid.
And thank you. I put a lot of work into trying to make it look nice.
I bought it for about 8$. It was very inexpensive. That’s all I can say other than what I’ve already said. If you do buy it. You shouldn’t pay much.
You could potentially use some of the materials for other things. Like the tin, or the plants or the wood shelves and buildings. If that is what you are asking.
What I meant is the wood thick or flimsy and breaks? I have tried some cheap kit before and they breaks so much and I had to glue a lot of the pieces so I didn’t like it.
The wood was not flimsy at all. All those pieces come unattached. Usually when I break wooden pieces is it when I am separating them off the board. They are thick and can handle stress.
The worst parts of the kit is it’s over reliance on bad paper pieces. The front name plate is a good piece to make from paper. But the background was cut out of the manual and they tell you to string lights behind it. It isn’t good. You cover a lot of it. But I can point out all the bubbles and creases from the lights running behind paper.
I just learned about these and I am so obsessed. I have four different ones coming (Cherry Blossoms, In a Happy Corner, Starlight Amusement Park, and Roaming in Paris). The first one should be here on the 10th or 11th. I am so excited to try them.
Good luck! Who knows, maybe you will find them super enjoyable. If you get stuck, let me know, I’ve probably already dealt with any issue you come across with these.
