Here's something I put together over the last few days. My wife actually gave me the idea! Still a work in progress, but I thought I would show you all what I've accomplished up to now. I have never displayed my putz ever like this, but it's been fun so far! :mrgreen:

Christmas Cheers to you all!

~Will~

Will...

Is the "tree" hanging from the ceiling or are there metal suppout rods between each level?...I couldn't tell from the photos...

It really is a great way to show off both your vintage original houses and you own creations...

My very best regards...Howard...

Yes Howard, it's actually hanging from a "vintage" 1970's plant hanger hook! It's to keep my little 2 year old TERROR away from it!
(Doesn't work though.. LOL!! :lol: )

This is a neat idea for displaying your houses. I may have to think about something like this for the future.
