A hidden garden, waiting behind the gate. Inspired by Frances Hodgson Burnett's The Secret Garden, this scene is a little green hideaway for your shelf. Build it piece by piece, slide it into place, and let the sensor light greet you each time you walk past.
Why you'll love it
- A garden to discover. A secret green corner, full of quiet charm.
- Two ways to light it. The sensor light switches on as you approach and off again after a minute or two. The touch light stays on until you turn it off.
- Dust cover included. A clear acrylic cover keeps your finished scene looking fresh.
- A gift that gets built. For the gardener, the classic-novel reader, or anyone who loved this story growing up.

Glue and batteries aren't in the kit box. This pack has both, for less than buying them separately.
Tips for a smooth build
Dry-fit first
Slot each piece into place before you glue it. It's far easier to spot a misfit now than after it sets.
Test the lights early
Switch the lights on before you close up the walls and tuck the wiring away.
Go light on the glue
Thin layers dry cleaner and are much easier to correct if something shifts.
