The door stands open a crack, a blue-green crystal ball glows on its golden stand, and an envelope sealed with red wax waits in the bottom panel of the door, the kind of letter every young reader once hoped would arrive by owl. This magic shop miniature house kit lets you build that shop yourself, one tiny shelf at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wm-answer\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Magic Shop miniature house kit\u003c\/strong\u003e is a 230-piece DIY wizard's shop that finishes at 16.3 × 10.9 × 14.2 cm.

A curved green cabinet bows out to the left, its glass panes crowded with rolled scrolls, a zodiac chart, a golden skeletal hand and a pocket-sized globe.

A framed bat specimen hangs above the counter. A white skull and a pink crystal ball share the top shelf with a silver teapot, ready for a Divination lesson. Near the gothic window, narrow boxes are stacked floor to ceiling, exactly how a certain wandmaker would store his stock. Black-and-white checkered steps lead up to the entrance, moss creeps along the base, and a green plaque reads \"Magic Shop.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wm-row wm-row--rev\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wm-media\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wm-text\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow long does it take to build the Magic Shop?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpect about 16 hours for the Magic Shop, which most builders split into four or five evenings.
