A Wizard's Wand Shop That Opens Up
On a cobblestone corner, the Magical Wand Shop is ready for business: a round bay window crowded with wands, floating books and candles, a green door with its letterbox, and a second display window piled high with boxes, bottles and a crystal ball. Outside, a luggage trolley waits fully loaded. The whole shopfront opens on hinges, so you can swing it aside and see the cabinets, wand shelves and counter inside, lit by candles, lanterns and an oil lamp. This is a dollhouse-style kit for people who love detail: you make around a hundred tiny props yourself, from wands and scrolls to real glass bottles, before the building goes up.
