If you read my last post wherein I shared 30 utterly adorable DIY dollhouse projects, it will come as no surprise when I say that I love miniatures. Can you blame me? They’re utterly adorable – and, with the wide range of affordable starter kits out there, more affordable than ever.
In 2022, one of my creative goals is to start building really elaborate terrariums. We’re going to be tackling glass cutting – and making miniature structures. (Don’t ask – I’ve given up on trying to figure out why my brain wants what it wants.) Just look at this artist . . .
However, I have exactly 0 experience with either of those things. This has lead to me investigating DIY miniature house kits. I’m going to try a few guided ones, get a feel for it – and then maybe share some tutorials with you all! But, for now, I shall quit blabbering on and show you what you came here to see. Without further ado, let’s get into some of the best DIY miniature kits the internet has to offer . . .
