« Le coin lecture est magnifique et est arrivé avec toutes les pièces jusqu'à présent. Le point à noter est qu'il n'était pas dans la boîte et qu'il n'y avait pas de matériel de support avec des ciseaux et des pinces, heureusement que j'en ai déjà d'un autre livre que j'ai acheté précédemment. »
One more lit window on your bookshelf.
High noon in midsummer on a Cycladic lane: blue shutters bang against white stone, and the smell of coffee drifts up from the counter. Santorini Lane brings this scene to your bookshelf: a miniature book nook you build yourself, glowing with a warm light when evening falls.
A Mediterranean book nook kit for beginners
Blue and white do all the work: no complicated patterns, just clean shapes and a warm light running through the lane. Beginner level, three to five hours: the ideal scene for a first large-format build, or for a change of mood after a night scene.
Who is it for? A calm, hands-on hobby for your evenings: hands busy, mind at ease. An original gift you build and keep. A touch of character for a shelf, once evening comes.
Dimensions: package 20.5 × 15.9 × 9.2 cm

Kit Book Nook DIY en Bois — Ruelle de Santorin
Le coin lecture est magnifique et est arrivé avec toutes les pièces jusqu'à présent. Le point à noter est qu'il n'était pas dans la boîte et qu'il n'y avait pas de matériel de support avec des ciseaux et des pinces, heureusement que j'en ai déjà d'un autre livre que j'ai acheté précédemment.
bien reçu, correspond totalement mais dommage que l'emballage soit si décevant
L'assemblage est difficile et prend environ 10 heures. Les graphiques et les images doivent être découpés sur du papier et collés sur les matériaux. C'est beaucoup de travail.
