Howard builds Lucy’s “Christmas Farmhouse”…

Post by **Howard** » Tue Sep 25, 2018 9:38 am

Greetings to all…

I’ve been following Lucy’s website, reading her blog and looking at her free patterns for quite a while now…if her site is new to you...go to this link…https://paperglitterglue.com/

One if my favorite patterns is her “Christmas Farmhouse”…here’s the link…https://paperglitterglue.com/wp-content ... erglue.pdf

(Note…her patterns are provided free of charge for your personal, non-commercial use)…

The photo below is my little glitter house version in the raw cardboard state…and since I don’t copy exactly…I made a few small changes to the pattern…I shortened the overall height an inch or so…added my favorite windows…adjusted the base size to 4” x 5” x ¾“ thick…and cut a ¾” high cross buck fence design with 1“ tall x ¼” square balsa wood posts…I also added a small porch over the front door but its not shown in the photo…

Lucy, I hope you approve…I must say it’s a pleasant change not having to draw a pattern!…

My very best regards…

Howard…

Howard, I can't wait to see your version. You not yet painted version is incredible on its own. Mine just don't look like that at this stage. And the fencing - I LOVE this fencing. I actually think I have a die that is a little bit similar. I will have to check because this fencing is a great idea.

Thank you, Howard.
Lucy
