Almost a year ago, my sister gave me a birthday gift of one of those small little rooms that you put together. No idea what they are actually called. A diorama? When I see them in the stores, they are super cute, but I don't have any use for them. I truly don't enjoy knick knacks, or what what I call "dust collectors".
I figured it was something I would put together on a rainy day, but that day never came. I finally put it together this week. It wasn't hard, but it is not the kind of thing I like to do. It's not like a puzzle where you fit the pieces in. It's more like putting together IKEA furniture and you have to follow the diagram. Plus, I hated dealing with the little tiny pieces. They are not in any kind of order (they just all had to fit in a finite space) so if you break them out early on accident, it would be a mess.
The funny thing about this one is that there are so many details that I had to put together that you actually can't see. I mean, I guess I know they are there, but it's kind of dumb if you ask me. At least the lights work? Anyway, its now put together and I put it on my bookshelf. LOL I have to use precious space for it but oh well. And now when I see them in stores, I can smile at them and pass on by without a thought.
