Make Time to Make

This weekend, build yourself a place among the flowers.

Give a little of your weekend to something you can make with your hands. Clear a space at the table, set out the pieces and spend some time bringing a flower house together. There are small tasks to settle into and a room to watch take shape. Enjoy a longer session, or leave it ready for the next evening. The pace is yours, and so is the place you are making.

Why You'll Love This Kit

Flowers outside. A little sitting room within.

A white frame and transparent roof panels leave the flower-filled interior open to view. Inside, a lace-covered tea table sits beside a rocking chair, with blue and green cabinets holding miniature bottles, books and clock decorations. Small roses climb over the roof and line the front planter. A warm pendant light brings the room together, from the patterned floor to the books tucked beneath the gable.

  • A white greenhouse frame with transparent roof panels
  • Roses and greenery across the roof and front planter
  • A tea table, rocking chair and colorful miniature cabinets
  • Warm light above a room full of small furnishings

FAQs

Quick answers before you build.

What's Inside The Box?

Each kit brings together precision-cut wooden parts, DIY materials and illustrated, step-by-step English instructions. Pre-printed details and LED lighting components are included where they’re part of the design.

We also add practical extras such as tweezers and selected building tools to many of our kits. These extras vary with the design and its assembly method. Due to shipping safety restrictions, glue and batteries are not included. Please prepare your own if needed.

Will Items Ship Together?

Your order may arrive in multiple packages if:

  • Items ship from different warehouses (US/UK/AU...)
  • Large orders require separate boxes
    But don't worry! You'll receive:
    • Individual tracking numbers
    • Shipping notifications for each package
    • Priority consolidation when possible
Does it come with working lights? How does it work?

Our light-up designs include LED lighting components to bring your miniature scene to life with a warm glow.

Some kits use USB power, while others use batteries; the power source is marked on each product page. USB-powered kits need to stay plugged in. For battery-powered kits, please prepare your own batteries in the type specified for the kit.

Is This Beginner-friendly?

Absolutely! Our kits are designed for crafters at all levels. Each comes with:

  • Color-coded components for easy identification
  • Illustrated instructions with magnified detail views

How Long Does It Take To Build?

Building times range from 3-20 magical hours depending on:
• Kit complexity
• Your preferred pace (many enjoy spreading over cozy weekends)
• Optional detailing like custom painting
Most crafters tell us the process is wonderfully relaxing - pour some tea, play soft music, and watch your tiny world come alive!

Do I need any extra tools?

Please have a pair of scissors ready, plus your own craft glue if your kit needs it and batteries if it is battery powered.

We provide tweezers, and selected kits also include other small assembly tools. Glue-free designs may include adhesive stickers or double-sided tape instead of liquid glue. Glue and batteries are not supplied due to shipping safety restrictions.

What Kind Of Glue Should I Use?

Please prepare your own glue if your kit requires it, as glue is not supplied due to shipping safety restrictions. These are useful options:

  • White PVA craft glue — a good choice for paper and wooden pieces.
  • Clear-drying craft adhesive — choose one labelled as suitable for the specific materials you’re joining.

Test a small, hidden area first and follow the adhesive’s directions for application and drying. Some glue-free designs use the included stickers or double-sided tape instead of liquid glue.

What If A Part Is Missing Or Damaged?

We carefully inspect every kit before shipping. However, if any part arrives missing or damaged, please submit a request through our Parts Replacement Service page.

We offer one free parts replacement within 90 days for every order.

You can also contact us directly at contact@hinooki.com, and our team will get back to you as soon as possible.

Are These Kits Suitable for Children?

Our kits are designed for teenagers aged 14 and over, as well as adults.

They include small parts and detailed assembly steps, so they are not intended for young children. For teens and adults, building together can be a rewarding, creative activity to share.
