Warning: CHOKING HAZARD – Small Parts. Not for children under 4 years.
Required tools: scissors, damp cloth, straight edge (square), sand paper
(optional), tweezers (optional).
Helpful tips: Read instructions, check all parts, and do a dry run before
gluing. Use only a small amount of glue. Glue one log and place before
gluing the next log. Keep each row of logs even and straight over the row
below (look from above for alignment). Periodically check that the door and
windows fit into the openings. Ensure the good side of the parts face out.
Tweezers may be useful for placing small parts. For the best fit and finish,
lightly sand the notches, the ends of the logs and other parts before gluing.
When finished enjoy your kit natural or paint some or all of it.

Building the Base

Step 1
• On a flat surface, glue the edges of the floor planks together as shown.
Use a square or straight edge for alignment.
• Glue two half logs (10.5 cm) across the floor planks 1 cm from the edges
of the base and evenly spaced from the ends as shown.
• Keep the base square as you carefully slide the base to one side and
clean any excess glue from the work surface. Set aside to dry.

Building the Roof Panels

Step 2
• Arrange three "3 ridge" roof pieces and one "1 ridge" roof piece with the
ridges up and the thin edges facing the same direction against a straight
edge (square) as shown (3 ridge, 3 ridge, 1 ridge, 3 ridge).
• Spread glue along the thin edge of two 3 ridge pieces and the thin edge
of the 1 ridge piece.
• Press them together against the square or straight edge in the order
shown to form the left roof panel. (3 ridge, 3 ridge,1 ridge, 3 ridge)
• Repeat for the other roof panel (3 ridge, 3 ridge, 1 ridge, 3 ridge).
• Keep the panels square as you carefully slide each panel to one side and
clean any excess glue from the work surface. Set aside to dry.

Making the Flag

Step 3
• With scissors, snip the sharp ends of the toothpick.
• With printing out, fold the flag in half. Unfold the flag.
• Spread glue evenly on the inside of the flag.
• Ensure hands are clean of glue and place the toothpick in the crease fold.
Ensure the top of the toothpick is even with the top of the flag.
• Evenly refold the flag over the toothpick, pinching it around the toothpick.

Building the Balcony

Step 4
• Take four railing posts and glue one in each corner of the balcony.
• Glue two more railing posts, equally spaced at the front of the balcony.
• Glue two railings (3.3 cm) onto the side railing posts.
• Glue the railing (9.7 cm) across the two front railing posts.

Step 5
• For the door hinge cut a (1 cm x 4 cm) flat piece of the paper bag
packaging.
• Spread glue on the left edge of the door (do not glue hinge to the back of
the door).
• Place the paper hinge on the glued edge as shown. Ensure the plastic
side is facing out and the hinge is even with the back side of the door.
• When the glue has dried, fold the paper hinge back on itself.
• Glue the door knob into the hole in the door so it sticks out equal dis-
tance front and back.
Step 6
• With scissors, cut four 0.4 cm pieces from the toothpick. Each piece
should be the same width as the skis.
• Glue two pieces of toothpick across the middle of both skis.
Step 7 (front & back - row 1)
• On a flat surface, arrange one half log (3.6 cm) and one half log (7.5 cm)
at the front, and one half log (14.3 cm) at the back as shown.
Step 8 (sides - row 1)
• Glue the notches of:
o two 2 notched logs (10.5 cm); and
o one 1 notched log (3.6 cm).
• Place the logs with notches down across the half logs as shown. (use a 3
notched log (14.3 cm) as a guide).

• Glue the notches of:
o one 2 notched log (14.3 cm);
