Handmade Wooden DIY Model: Retro Saigon Room 1 box

Miniature DIY Wooden Model – Old Saigon Living Room

A touch of nostalgia from the past…

What does your living room look like today? Perhaps it has been replaced with modern, stylish furniture and technology. But in the old days, before all these conveniences, everything was crafted by hand—with skill, patience, and incredible artistry.

This miniature model recreates the timeless charm of a classic Saigon living room. Imagine the deep golden walls paired with dark wooden cabinets, delicately carved with dragons, phoenixes, and flowers—each detail showcasing the craftsmanship of generations past.

The glass-top table wasn’t empty as it often is today—it was filled with framed family photos lovingly arranged by mothers, simple yet full of warmth.

The walls carried more than just paint; they carried pride—school certificates carefully hung by fathers, portraits of beloved movie stars, and decorations that told the story of a family’s joys and dreams.

And who could forget the old treasures? The sewing machine a mother used to mend clothes for the new school year, the iron fan that rattled noisily but faithfully kept the family cool, the black-and-white TV that fathers proudly “fixed” with a firm tap, or the mother-of-pearl inlay paintings that shone after daily polishing.

This DIY miniature kit is more than just a model—it’s a heartfelt journey back to the Saigon of yesterday, a reminder of the warmth and beauty found in simple family living.
