Step-by-Step Miniature House Tutorial
The following is a step-by-step holiday DIY guide that will assist you in making your miniature house:
Step 1: Unbox your Kit

Unbox your Rolife kit from the package. Place all the pieces on your work desk and give yourself a moment to appreciate those minute details. Check the pieces against the instruction manual to be sure that nothing is missing.
This is also the time when you bring out any external tool you’ll need that is not included in the kit. Arrange the pieces into containers to save time and confusion.
Step 2: Build the Structure

Once you are acquainted with the instruction manual, it is time to begin assembling. Begin with the base because it is the foundation of your house. Next, go to the walls and roof.
If your kit requires glue, use the glue provided to assemble the wall frame and make sure the pieces fit correctly.
Step 3: Add festive details

Now is the time to focus on the inside. Assemble the furniture, tiny gifts, and festive decorations. Place decorative trees, small wreaths, garlands, ribbons, and other objects to make a good-looking display. Take care with these parts as the pieces are small and can easily be misplaced.
Step 4: Add Lighting
What’s a Christmas miniature house without a warm, glowing light? The good part: most Rolife kits include LED light components. All you need to do is follow the instructions to install them carefully. You’ll need batteries and a cable to test that it is working correctly. You can turn it on when you are finished to make your place cozy with a festive feel.
Step 5: Add Personalization

Looking to make your miniature house really special? Include something that appeals to you. It could be a handwritten ‘Merry Christmas’ sign, a small photo, or small handmade ornaments.
