NOOK natural | five paper houses DIY village kit

Build your own NOOK village

NOOK is a set of five very different houses: some look traditional, cosy and rural, others are sleek, urban and modern. They’re true prefab houses: pre-cut and pre-scored. Inside, the walls have trendy grid-pattern wallpaper in matching colours.
All you need to do as the village architect: open the shutters and doors (and, where needed, gently press out the windows), glue walls and roofs together where indicated — and voilà!

Village square or Wall Street?

Assembling this little neighbourhood is pure joy. And once it’s done, the real fun begins: arranging your mini village! Will it be a cheerful Christmas village on your dining table, a neat row of houses along the windowsill, or a cute little street up against the wall?
(We actually made a fun VIDEO of such a “wall street”: it features the previous generation of NOOK houses!)

Hot tip: light up your houses with an artificial tealight! A small LED tealight fits perfectly. I use rechargeable ones — they last for years, and you won’t need to waste those nasty button batteries.

A set of NOOK houses comes in a flat A5-sized pack — easy to send as a gift, and yes, it fits right through the letterbox!

Frequently asked questions (FAQ's):

Question 1  What is the difference between NOOK natural and bright?

Answer  Jurianne Matter gave both sets the same five house shapes. Natural has quiet, earthy colours; bright is more playful. Pick the street you would like to live in.

Question 2  Are the NOOK houses difficult to make?

Answer  No. The parts are pre-cut and pre-creased. Fold the houses, open the windows and shutters, then glue the walls and roofs in place.
