Flever Monet Garden — Dollhouse Miniature DIY House Kit

Monet Garden is our modern villa: white rendered walls, a flat overhanging roof, a glazed stairwell and a terrace with outdoor furniture on it. The whole ground floor is open plan, so the furniture placement matters more here than in any other house we make.

It is also the largest house in the range, and the garden is a build of its own — paving, planting and a lawn you lay in sections. Lighting runs under the roof overhang rather than inside the rooms, which gives the terrace the look of a house with the lights left on.

It is one of the larger kits on this shelf of 10 dollhouse kits, builders have left it 4.1 out of five across 419 notes, and it is in stock as we write this.

A dollhouse is a story told in rooms, so Monet Garden starts as a drawing of the building and ends as a dozen boxes of loose parts — flowers for the garden, crockery for the shelves, a lamp for every landing. We build this miniature house kit once on our own bench before the first DIY kit leaves the workshop.
