Beautiful! Having your wife step in and assist… Makes it that much more special!
Awesome! and this one is so lovely! My mom lives farther away and I was afraid to take the chance to send! I stuck with the purple Iris. I felt safe with that! But the book is beautiful and I am glad she loved it!
I have this one in the wings. If it is anything like the Dream gift factory, it is a challenging build and yes, one to be proud of!
I treasure this one as well. I chose it because of my sisters name. But man was it hard. I actually walked away from it for a few weeks. I did Henry’s chocolate shop in its place. I took a break! and then came back to it. I was able to finish.
I am glad you enjoyed!
I looks amazing. You should be proud of yourself.
When I called my son the other day, he was taking a mental health day and was building this.
a great cure for mood!
That’s so sweet of you to fly to your best friend’s event to support her
plus you get to build a beautiful cart to cherish the memory. Lovely story @samca
Thanks so much. The only part I really struggled with on this was the water wheel. I felt like it took me forever to get all of the slats aligned and the back piece on.
Yeah. She’s pretty cool ![]()
That looks like a genuine challenge for sure. @Mark_Rudnik not sure if I’d ever do it but do not seeing these completed cause I can appreciate the hard work it takes! Good job
The Dream Gift Factory is the one build that made me feel most proud of. It was my first mechanical wooden puzzle and I was so amazed that I was able to complete it on my own. The instructions were so easy to follow plus the community was so helpful everytime I bump into an issue.
Plus it was extra memorable because I built it during the ber months and my kids were always there on its every test run. It was a beautiful display while celebrating Christmas.
thank you! I’m very grateful I got the opportunity to do that
and now it’s one of my favourite hobbies too!
Aww thank you so much! @Vinay
Aw thank you so much!! Luckily she’s only a 3 hour drive away and the kit made it!!
I’m glad you were able to send the purple iris, it’s a beautiful flower!
Aww I absolutely love that you came to my first event and I was able to introduce you to my favorite hobby and share with you something I’m so passionate about! I’m so happy you love miniatures and I love seeing what you build ![]()

I’m so happy that I enjoyed the event too! I wasn’t sure what to expect - I normally don’t like following instructions, but there’s just something so relaxing about this hobby! and satisfying seeing something built from scratch haha. I’m grateful that it’s something that we can share and talk about! It just brings us closer ![]()

I normally don’t like following instructions either haha but I couldn’t agree with you more!! I love seeing how each tiny piece brings the whole kit / world together. I love sharing this hobby with you and yes it definitely makes us closer! See you at my next event ![]()

Love it. You do awesome work
Thanks so much. @Christie_Monroe
this is great, there’s nothing more satisfying than being able to feel proud and accomplished of a build you made. It’s nice having instructions to follow that are so easy too!
