The Sweet Marie book nook recreates a Parisian sweet shop, its sky blue front carved with gold scrolls under a pink and white striped awning. Behind the arched glass door, wooden drawers hold rows of macarons and croissants. Out on the pavement, a small dog dozes by a bench under a cast-iron street lamp.

A 242-piece build for anyone who loves French pastry and tiny details. It makes a lovely Christmas or birthday gift for someone who likes to work with their hands.

Who is the Sweet Marie Pastry Shop made for?

The Sweet Marie Pastry Shop is made for anyone who loves French patisserie, soft pastel colors and shops packed with tiny things. Rated Medium with 242 pieces and 3 to 6 hours of assembly, it suits a first kit as well as a tenth, on your own or shared with someone over a weekend.

Its sky blue, powder pink and gold sit well next to cream shelves and pale book spines. Nearly as deep as it is wide, it sits on a shelf beside your books rather than slipping into a narrow gap.

In the evening, one touch lights the shop windows and it doubles as a small night light.

Book nook details

Inside, the shelves are labelled by hand: jam on the top row, candy below, with jars of preserved fruit lined up between them. A lace-trimmed counter holds two tall sundae glasses, and a chalkboard menu sketches the day's desserts above a pink rotary telephone. In the tall cabinet, loaves of bread and boxes of cookies sit on pale blue shelves. On the side wall, a slate welcomes you to Sweet Marie and lists the opening hours, beside a street signpost and a lit wall lantern. A green parakeet has landed on the folding sign out front, just above a crate of greenery marked sweet.

FAQs about our Book Nooks

What's included in my miniature decor pack?

Your DIY Book nook Kit includes everything you need to get started: a detailed instruction guide, cutting tools, crafting papers, solid plywood sheets, and LED lights. Due to shipping restrictions, we can't include glue and batteries with your order.
If you run into any issues while building your diorama, just shoot us an email and we'll help you out!

Can I get replacement pieces if something breaks or is missing?

If you have a missing or broken piece, you can contact us and we'll send you a replacement.
Please note that the replacement process may take some time since we're not a large company and we need to individually manufacture missing pieces, which can take a few weeks. But our team will be there to provide you with all the necessary information via email.

Is it too complicated for younger children to assemble?

The recommended age is simply a guideline, many children ages 6 to 8 have successfully built their book nooks and miniature dollhouses on their own, simply by following the instructions provided in the boxes. If your child is used to building with Legos, they'll manage without too much difficulty.

Are the book nook pieces dangerous for my child?

Our book nooks are made of wood, which is completely safe for children and adults. They are certified to safety standards and are free of high-concern chemicals.

Do I need additional tools to assemble my miniature book nook?

No, you have all the necessary tools to assemble your book nook without difficulty. However, batteries are not included due to customs and shipping reasons. Check the specifications section to see what batteries your book nook requires.

Here's a list of other optional tools that can help you assemble and strengthen your book nook:

  • Silicone-based glue can also be useful to reinforce your wooden miniature decor
  • Sandpaper can help you slightly file down pieces that might be too hard to insert
  • A mini hammer to help push pieces into place
