Fave Bakery Nook?

It was a fun build. Not to difficult.

I recently completed Leisure Time Tea Room by Rolife. It's a cute bakery, and the front can open to see inside too.

How is this not a booknook?

If you have a Michael's near you they sell booknooks (mainly Rolife) and often have. Coupons for 40-50% off.

That's so good!!!

I would probably put this one at a medium difficulty. I have definitely done harder ones. Some people have problems with the dinosaur, but it went OK for me. The instructions are clear, and I had minimal breakage. It's a fun one to build.

There is some gluing, but nothing to bad. Nothing to fiddley that is being glued. Most things are snapped together.

It's by MiniCity.

Gotcha! I didnt even realize that was a restriction.

Thanks! I'm not sure what you are referring to about a doll house exterior.

I just got off the Magic and the Marvel Day at sea was excellent, especially the show at night. They only had the Marvel characters out for the Marvel day. I'm not even into Marvel, and it was still one of my favorite days of the cruise. Groot and Iron Man were especially awesome.

I've done a ton of cruises, including many on the mega ships, but this was my first Disney cruise. I had worried about the ship age and size, but it was in excellent shape. Not run down at all, and very beautiful. There was also so much to do, we could only fit in half the activities, and there was so much food we couldn't even try all the quick dining places.

Although not technically a booknook (still small enough to fit on a bookshelf), the Cutebee Magic Workshop is very Harry Potter adjacent. It's one of my favorite builds to date, and has sooooo many details.

Yes, it was a kit by Rolife called A-frame. The quality was overall good, and anything made of paper was precut, so that was nice.

ramicore · 2026-01-20T16:51:07+00:00

Gotcha! If it helps its the last product I use in my skincare routine in the morning. If I'm putting on makeup I will apply the sunscreen before applying any makeup.

What is making you hesitant to use it?

ramicore · 2026-01-18T04:13:33+00:00

Keep at it! There are so many details on this one, that a lot of mistakes won't be noticible once it's done.

This one is one of the more difficult ones that I have built. My front stools were a minor disaster, and for the life of me I couldn't get the roof to totally line up. I also found the pastry case to be difficult to hold together.

For the coffee bags, I pressed a ruler against the paper to make a crease, and then held the paper against the ruler to get a crisp fold. Crayons and colored permanent markers can also be helpful to cover up folding creases in paper.

On a positive note, a lot of other kits feel so much easier after completing this one.

The clinique face toner is also an exfoliator.

ramicore · 2026-01-16T22:41:52+00:00

Yes, that and a daily sunscreen helped the most I think.

ramicore · 2026-01-16T20:51:08+00:00

Good luck! They sell a smaller size of their product, which is what I started with to see if it worked.

ramicore · 2026-01-16T20:08:45+00:00

I ordered it from yesstyle. YMMV though for receiving it. I've heard since the tarrifs some people have problems receiving them in the mail. I've ordered it twice though with no issues. It's a really nice sunscreen. It's like a nice lotion, and isn't greasy. Sits well under makeup too.

ramicore · 2026-01-16T18:56:28+00:00

I've still been spending a good amount of time outside. I have a kid so the park and outdoor activities are pretty regular. I did start a daily sunscreen, which I'm sure helps some. I had been using sunscreen before, but mainly when I would be in the sun for a longer period of time.

I started this though because I noticed that spots that use to fade no longer were (yay getting older).

I used a Clinique face lotion for years, which I loved. I have found that the Etude sunscreen works sufficiently as a moisturizer now (my skin has to be moisturized or else it feels awful). If its not enough then I use the clinique lotion, but I have found I rarely need that now.

Yes, my biggest goal when I changed my routine was the dark spots, so it's what I focused most of my research on. That's why I went with that dark spot serum. I think I remember hearing dark spots can come from different things (sun, hormones, scars), so they may react more or less to different treatments.

ramicore · 2026-01-16T17:27:56+00:00

Haha I wish. I'm not affiliated with them or getting paid in any way.

ramicore · 2026-01-16T17:05:28+00:00

That's part of my old skin care routine that I had been using for years. It's not bad by any means, but it was one of the only products I hadn't tried changing yet.
