NEW – Miniature Wood Kits

©2024 Teri Hanson/The Covered Chipboard

These kits will be a new product line venture for me! Over the next several months, and beyond, I will be adding miniature furniture wood kits to my product line as I continue to work on the Lighthouse build and after the first of the year, a new project: The Witch Apothecary.

These products will be offered in the form of unfinished wood kits as well as finished kits with a price range from $8.99 for kits and $15.99 for finished items. I will not be offering SVG files for these as most items will not cut well on Cricut-type machines due to small details. I’m debating on offering Laser Cut files for Laser Cutting machines in the future. Leave a comment below if this is something you might be interested in.

Here’s a bit of information on what’s coming soon and on my first offering: Wood Weather Vane kits. Note that these will be designed and created in 1:12 scale to start but you can request them in smaller scales and eventually, I will offer the kits in smaller scales as well.

I currently have nine weather vane designs for you to choose from. I’m happy to discuss a custom design for the top of the weather vane, currently at no extra charge. Feel free to contact me if you would like a custom design!

At left you can see the 9 styles available along with the finish choices for those who want to purchase the finished product. I will show all three finishing techniques in the construction video that is included with the purchased download.

Construction & Kit Information . . .

The weather vanes are very easy to put together but they are fragile so you should use care when building! All construction materials are included in the kits. Feel free to contact me should you have questions.

NOTE: A LINK to the construction / finishing video will be included in the instruction PDF file inside the download folder for those who have purchased a kit. These links will be a “private video” for only those who have purchased a kit – please do not share the video link – thank you!

Suggested Materials you will need . . .

• Gorilla Wood Glue
• Super Glue – any brand – optional finishing technique
• Regular Baking Soda – optional finishing technique
• Acrylic Paints – I suggest Folk Art Multi Surface Matte Finish – a few exceptions are noted for certain finishes

Finishing Paints you will need . . .

• IRON FINISH – Folk Art Matte #925 Wrought Iron, Folk Art Matte #6463 Pale Grey
• BROWN METAL – Folk Art Matte #940 Coffee Bean, Deco Art Americana Cinnamon Stick
• AGED COPPER – Deco Art Metallics Copper, Folk Art Matte #4664 Dutch Aqua
• SEALER – Deco Art Americana Dura Clear Matte Varnish – this is a paint on varnish that dries rather quick. You could really use any spray sealer as long as it’s a matte finish.

NOTICE: All purchased kits will include a download folder with a PDF step-by-step construction guide with photos as well as a link to a complete construction video with finishing techniques. This will be the same for all of my wood kits offered.

The next few kits will be up soon and will include the following . . .

3 in 1 Dresser – Non Working

Moon Goddess Trundle Bed

Bathroom Sink

Just a reminder that all kits will be offered in a 1:12 (Full Scale) size but you can always contact me to request a smaller scale. If I wind up offering the Laser cut files you could of course size the files as you need for your own project.

One last note . . . All of my wood kit designs will be for Personal Use Only. If you purchase the Laser Cut files, you are welcome to make multiples as gifts for family or friends but you may not sell the files in any way, nor sell the finished items in any form.

Thank you in advance for your interest and/or purchase. I hope you will be as excited to get these products as I am to bring them to you! And be sure to register on my Blog and FaceBook groups to keep up with new release notices!

Happy Mini Crafting!
