House on Ebay

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?

The video turned out well.

Are the windows flocked. At least the gold colored ones.
They look silk screened.

Steve the windows aren't flocked, but I did hand paint them which might give them a thicker appearance. I printed off a pattern for them on some cardstock I got from Office depot and then painted them to match the photo of the original. I took some photos of how I did the windows, if I get a min I'll post pics of that. They aren't as crisp as Pete's die cut ones, but I didn't have any of his and didn't know if it was a custom size so I just made my own. Pete told me that the original had a curtain on it. I wasn't familiar with the curtains, but it does look like there might have been a light brown sheet of cellophane or film that was torn away from the door. I need to do some further investigating. :)
