For now I'll call this unique putz house "Frankinsteined". This is what Tom Hull would call a "Friday Afternoon Putz House!" It seems as though our Japanese Artisans looked forward to the weekends as much as we do. Here is one of the most Frankensteined houses that I've ever seen. They must have used up what ever bits and pieces that they had left over from a week of manufacturing houses. Part Loggie, Cotton Topper, Sandy, Foil Top and 4 different colors of Coconut.
