Before You Begin
Here’s what you’ll need to assemble your Tiny Treehouse:
Cutting board – Protects your table or workspace when cutting out the elements.
Something straight with an edge (like a paint mixing stick) – Helps make folding easier and ensures sharp, clean folds.
Scissors – For cutting connection points.
Knife – Useful for cutting precise connection points.
Tweezers (optional but helpful) – Makes handling small pieces easier.
Important Notes Before Starting:
Bending the metal back and forth too much will break it. Follow the assembly order to avoid unnecessary bending.
Watch out for sharp edges. Some cut corners of the metal may be sharp, so handle with care.
Step 1: Pop Out All the Elements
All elements are pre-cut from a brass sheet. To remove them:
Push firmly on the connection points to release the pieces.
For smaller elements, use scissors or a knife to cut the connection points—this is often easier than pushing them out with your fingers.
Step 2: Build the Walls
Start by building the walls of the Tiny Treehouse, and use the edge of something straight to help fold the walls neatly.
Align the fold lines and press firmly to create a sharp 90-degree angle.
Repeat this on all sides until the walls form a square shape.
Don’t fold the roof yet! We’ll get to that later.
Step 3: Fold the Base
Begin with the large tabs, folding them at a 45° angle. Then, fold the smaller tabs.
Use a straight edge to keep the folds crisp and precise.
Repeat on all four sides.
Step 4: Attach the Ties
Gently bend the long ties and insert them into the top and bottom slits at the back of the treehouse.
These ties will allow you to secure your treehouse to a branch later.
Step 5: Attach the Base to the Walls
Align the tabs on the base with the corresponding slits on the walls. Insert the tabs and bend the base slightly downward so it forms a 90-degree angle and fits snugly to the bottom of the house. Fold the tabs on the inside to lock everything securely in place. Repeat on all four sides.
Step 6: Assemble the Roof
Use the edge of something straight to help fold the roof neatly.
Press down gently with your fingers to create a sharp fold.
Insert the roof tab into the slit and bend it upwards to secure the roof in place.
Step 7: Add the Tiny Details
Unfold the shutters and window sills using tweezers.
Free the flower using tweezers or scissors, fold the sill downward and the flower upward.
Free the ladder and fold it downward.
Optional: Open the long legs at the base for an alternate display.
Step 8: Assemble the Rope Ladder
Cut out all the rungs of the ladder, and cut the rope into two equal pieces.
Tie small knots at the bottom of each rope, about 1–1.5 cm from the end.
Thread the rope through the small holes in each rung
Continue tying knots and adding rungs until the ladder is complete.
Match the knots on both sides for the best result!
Step 9: Assemble the Swing
Fold the seat panel in half and bend the side tabs upwards to form the seat.
Take the swing bar and slide the small tab through the slit in the round piece.
When the T-shaped end hits the round piece, it’s in place—fold it slightly to ensure it stays straight.
Thread the small tab on the swing bar through the slit on the side of the seat and bend the tab upwards to secure it.
Repeat this process on the other side to complete the swing.
Step 11: Time to Set Up Your Tiny Treehouse!
Place the treehouse in the potting soil or secure it to a branch with the tie.
Hang the swing and ladder on different branches to complete the scene.
Add all the little friends and bring your magical treehouse world to life!
