Very small custom glitter house...

Post by Howard »

good afternoon...

i finished this highly detailed piece months ago...it is a very "close to scale model" of the client's home located in the historic district in a southern city with a rich music tradition...

i could not post and share the pictures until now since it was a gift...it was presented on thanksgiving when they set up their village display...

as you can tell by the quarter...the house is very small...the base is only about 4-inches square...

i may have another picture or so to post and share later...we'll see...something sort of special...

my very best regards...

howard
