Hands Craft | Hello Kitty® Town Square

The little cafe windows and potted plants in this alleyway scene are ridiculously detailed for something this small. Took me two evenings to assemble and I actually enjoyed the fiddly parts. It sits on my shelf now and I keep catching myself staring at it.

I've never done a book nook before and the tiny cafe shelves nearly drove me up the wall, but once that alleyway came together it was worth every bit of the fiddling. The little plants and signs fit together so cleanly that it looks like a real street corner sitting on my shelf.

The little potted plants tucked along the alleyway were my favorite part to assemble, and they actually look lush once the paper leaves are fluffed out. Took me a couple evenings but the cafes light up nicely through the tiny windows.
