🥰 [Rolife - Happiness] Leisure Time Tea Room Complete Love the Details

Recently finished the Leisure Time Tea Room and I’m really happy with how it came together. The way it hinges open is such a fun feature - makes it feel extra special compared to standard booknooks or the ones with floor pieces that slide out (those seem to come unglued).

One of my favorite things I’m realizing I like doing is making the little packages, boxes, and paper things. I love the way Rolife prescores the paper - it makes a huge difference in being able to get the boxes to actually look like boxes! Other kits I’ve made, even if the pieces were punched (and most weren’t), no matter how I tried to fold them they were lopsided. The extra effort Rolife puts into making these pieces easy to punch out and scored to fold properly is amazing.

I was a little confused about how the bench plastic part went together - I had the back and seat sides mixed up at first and almost trimmed too much off! Definitely not a fan of that part. But I absolutely adored the light fixture!

It turned out very lovely. I like it when they perforate the paper parts too. I’m never happy with the things I cut by hand.

I love paper pre cut things. I hate it when i need to use a knife to get parts cut from paper. It never looks nice enough

I also love the folding and making boxes in Rolife kits. They’re relaxing to build and the paper is firm enough. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
