Hello folks!

Hope everyone is doing well!

Looking at my "Carrot orange" filament, from Spectrum Filament, i had this idea two days ago!

Cuter than cute, here's the carrot house! Another nice fairy house that can be added in your flowers, your landscaping or (why not) in your vegetable garden!

Its almost the same story as the two others:

All parts (no matter which option you choose) are printable without supports.

The assembly is really easy, using small amount of glue.

The model can be scale to any size, but the original size is the smallest one i have tested without loosing details. So its possible to scale it up with no proble, but scaling it down may cause some issues.

FOR THE LEAVES: They are flat when printed. Use a little bit of heat (i.e. heatgun) to slightly bend them at the angle you want. You need to print 5 of them. To assemble them you may need a bit of practice but it is still really easy. When joined together, the base of the leaves will form a circle. Make a few dry fit tests (without glue) to see if they are bent correcly and where you want each leaves. What i did on my side, is to put all 5 leaves in place, arrange the orientation by bending/rotating them in the carrot body, and then drop a bit of glue in the center to hold them in place.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE CHIMNEY: Make a dry fit check before assembling everything together!!! Put the chimney base in place on the carrot body (the base has a specific orientation, look at the dimples)

Next. insert the elbow and the chimney, make sur everyting is correctly oriented and then glue all the parts!

Detailed instructions are also included in the form of exploded views.

You will find in the files a ground spike. Because this model is higher than the two others, a ground spike is included to prevent the house from falling on its side. You can use it without gluing it! Simply push it in the ground and put the house on it. This way, if you wanna change the house location and can't use the spike (like on a stump or a rock) your gonna be glad you didnt glue it!

Again, if you have any problem or suggestions, feel free to send me a private message!

Have fun my friends! Hope you like it! Pascal

I was thinking we need all the birdhouses made fairy sized. lol

Rosalyn Seeger

Any way we can make this into a bird house?

PA1 MAKER

i can have a look at it. It Will be quite a challende the way it is shaped, but i think maybe a "two story" birdhouse would be great and appropriate for this design.... Will keep this on my list! 😉

Is there a base for the carrot if we don't want ro put it outside?

Jonathan Steele

Any chance you might do a hollowed out version that a tealight can go into like your other fairy houses?

Chris West

You should check the remix folder. A lot of people have made changes to fairy houses to add a hollowed out version.
