Setup and Assembly

Follow these steps to assemble your Mini Brands Create Garden plant:

  1. Unbox the Capsule: Carefully peel off the outer wrapping and separate the two halves of the capsule. Inside, you will find individually wrapped components and an instruction booklet.
  2. Identify Your Plant: Consult the included collector's guide to identify the specific mini plant you have received and its corresponding assembly instructions.
  3. Assemble Components: Follow the visual instructions in the booklet to connect the various plant parts (e.g., stems, leaves, flowers) to form your miniature plant. Ensure all pieces fit securely.
  4. Place in Pot: Insert the assembled plant into its designated mini pot or display base.
  5. Apply UV Resin: For plants that include UV resin, carefully apply a small amount of resin to the base of the plant where it meets the pot or to any connecting points as indicated in the instructions. The resin helps to permanently secure the parts.
  6. Cure the Resin: Expose the resin-applied areas to natural sunlight for approximately 15 minutes, or until the resin has fully hardened. This process ensures the stability and durability of your assembled mini plant.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Mini Brands Create Garden collectibles:

  • Keep the assembled plants clean by gently dusting them with a soft brush or cloth.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight after the UV resin has cured, as this may cause colors to fade over time.
  • Store in a cool, dry place to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during assembly or with your product:

  • Parts not fitting: Double-check the instruction booklet to ensure you are using the correct parts for your specific plant model. Apply gentle pressure when connecting pieces.
  • UV resin not curing: Ensure the resin is exposed to sufficient natural sunlight or a UV lamp. Curing time may vary depending on light intensity.
  • Missing or damaged parts: Contact ZURU customer support for assistance.
