How can I make a DIY bookshelf diorama insert?
What is the process, the materials, steps you've taken to put together a bookshelf diorama? I keep seeing these beautiful inserts (see examples pictured) but can't quite figure out how to put one together. Help!

Hello what an interesting project. I would consider making a liner constructed with foam core and then working with that to insert into your book. Perhaps using some dollhouse Items accessories that are miniatures might be helpful in the design of your project.
Just look at the pictures and duplicate them or use them as a guide. Use miniatures, doll house furniture. Some even look hand made.

I've never seen anything like this and now I want something like this to add interest to my book shelves. If you do manage to make one (or more), please post a project on Hometalk so that we can see it. I'm thinking tiny doll house furniture, build the sides and then put it together. I can't imagine working inside such a tight area.
The examples above are good for inspiration, but keep in mind that they have been assembled by professionals with all the requisite tools. I would suggest that if you have never made a diorama, to start with constructing a simple one, to learn the techniques of working with 3D miniatures.

To facilitate working with small pieces in tight areas, I would recommend using extra long tweezers. They come in different lengths, in bent or straight styles, and are often sold with aquarium supplies.
I am in awe of these, I need to make one!
Hope this helps:
