Oh happy days! My MiPad floor plan 3 arrived from MIAIM Miniatures by Elaine Shaw. It took less than 15 minutse to unwrapped and assemble. The only tool needed for the design I chose was a screw driver to attach the front hinged wall to the house.
I set up the house with a black and white theme and I'll try to photograph and post photos later tonight.
The house was incredibly well packed so there was no damage from the oversees shipping. The walls, floor and ceiling were all individually wrapped so they wouldn't scratch or damage each other durning transit. The directions are super easy to follow (although the house is designed so well you don't really need them). You are supposed to attach the stairs before you assemble the house, but I wasn't going to use them for my first design so you'll notice they're missing in the first assembled pics. Then I changed my mind, and popped them in place, as the stairs are too cool not to use.
I love how every edge is finished so once assembled it is ready for decorating. The high quality materials and polished edges on the acrylic really make this the best manufactured dollhouse I've seen. I'm really impressed with Elaine's designs and the manufacturer she's working with.
Elaine is working on more floor designs and extensions. I can't wait to expand on to this house. Currently there are 4 floor designs to choose from at £150 per floor, along with some great modern furniture. More info on the house designs can be found on MIAIMminiatures.com
