Making a "flat chimney sweep"...

What kind of figures have been used with cardboard Christmas houses and villages, where do you get appropriate figures today, how do you make, prepair, repair or otherwise maintain figures?

Making a "flat chimney sweep"...

Post by Howard »

Good morning...

"Never was there a more happier crew, than them what sings Chim Chim Chiree Chim Chiroo!"

Approximately 1 5/8" tall figure...2" or so to top of 1/4" hardware cloth ladder...two light coats of gray spray primer, two light coats of gray craft paint, painted details and glass glitter on base are next...then two light coats of high gloss clear spray...

My very best regards...Howard...
