📖 [Rolife Journey] Mini build marathon day #1 🌈

Hey guys! :waving_hand:t2:

I head back to work tomorrow, so I went kind of hard building today and built 3 builds! :zany_face::zany_face: I didn’t think it would be so bad to have a hardcore building set of days off, since last days off I was gaming, and the days off before that I was reading lol.

The first build I did was: DS034 Strawberry Milk Box!

Now this build, along with Teddy’s Breadbox, I wasn’t totally sold on initially, it took me a long time to buy them. Seeing others building them on here is what really pushed me over the fence!

There are a lot of cute little items in this build, and nothing too difficult to build!

This build even comes with a light, which surprised me because a lot of the smaller builds don’t have lights!

Here it is all completed, with grade A natural morning light! :rofl::rofl: And here is a 360 video!

Next up, I pulled another random flower out of my flower pile and pulled the… drumroll please …:

THE PINK TULIP! Another easy flower build lol, must’ve put all the 2 star flowers in the middle of the pile because that’s where I keep pulling from, will have to try pulling from the top or bottom next time!

Overall less pieces than the Rose I think, but does have 3 wood sheets instead of two. This one also has a different shaped pot than the rose.

The inside of the tulip has little hearts in it and I thought that was kind of neat!

And voila finished! I think I finished this one faster than the rose, and definitely found it a tiny bit easier, still really pretty though!

Took a nice picture of the milk carton and the two flowers, I thought it was a pretty picture!

Final build:

Melody’s Cake Shop! :heart_eyes: I actually was going to do a different one, but opened the box and it looked a little more complex than I felt like doing this evening, and decided to do this one instead! This is the first build I’ve done that comes with a little figure in it!

Not too much to it, not even any pieces you have to pop out of wood. There was one cool item I had to make:

These little bags! Mine turned out a little wonky, but learning a new technique is cool. Basically you put a bunch of little plastic pieces on to a sticker and then wrap it up to make it look like a full little snack bag.

I thought it was pretty neat lol. :woman_shrugging:t3:

And that’s that! There’s sweet little Melody in her little shop! :heart_eyes::heart_eyes:

That’s all I got for today. I might try and build another flower during my work days, and after that start on another small build, although the one I want to do does have some painting and technical work in it, so I definitely won’t be busting it out in an hour! :rofl:

I hope everyone has a great weekend, and thanks for reading! :blush:

P.s Robotime got back to me and will be sending me my replacement part for Dora’s Loft so I hope to have the final build update for you guys in a couple weeks! :heart:

Your flower turned out lovely. I struggled with the tulip as well. I broke two pieces of the inner parts TWICE…LOL! That My melody kit is adorable. The little dairy one is pretty cut as well. Happy to hear that you have your part coming for Dora’s loft

I’m always paranoid about breaking things when building the flowers, some of those pieces you have to put quite a bit of pressure on to snap them in to place!

Fantastic. A very productive day for you indeed. Your flowers and little builds are so nice. And don’t you love the vases for the flowers? I think they are an engineering masterpiece.

Three builds in one day? That is what I call a successful marathon! :trophy: The Strawberry Milk Box looks so cozy in that natural light! I had no idea that specific kit came with a light, such a nice surprise. Also, those little snack bags in Melody’s Cake Shop are too cute! It’s always fun learning those tiny new techniques, even if they feel a bit ‘wonky’ at first. Great job! :strawberry::sparkles:

Pink is the best! :heart_eyes::heart_eyes: I also really like the milk box, I think it’s the cuter between it and Teddys breadbox!

Yes they are! I really like that they come with a vase! I remember when Lego first started coming out with flowers and they had no vase, I didn’t like it. :rofl:

Yes it is, I don’t know how much better my snack bags will get, it’s always harder to work with stickers. :sweat_smile:
