just a quick reminder...if you use different windows you'll have to adjust the openings shown on the pattern to fit the particular window you use...

my very best regards...

greetings to all...

nothing really special about this little house...it's more of a remake from a project from years back...but revised to fit a 3" x 4 1/2" x 3/4" thick base...see the PDF file for a free pattern...

my very best regards...

Howard, each house is special in it's own way

here's a remake of the "brown house" from the original "pack-o-fun house" patterns from the 1968 magazine...i did change the colors a little and scaled up the patterns for the major pieces...see the PDF below...

brown paint with glitter?...not a traditional color choice to be sure...but it does look much better in person...especially next to a lighter color house...it's actually a nice contrast...when i post the "family portrait", you'll see what i mean...

i think i've made enough of these small size houses for a while...i just counted 16 of them...more than enough for a village on our buffet this year...

now it's time to look for a challenging house subject or some new "flatties"...

my very best regards...

greetings to all...

thought i'd squeeze in one more little house in 2018...this was originally going to be a "Pack-O-Fun" size train station but decided just to make it a house...patterns and updates will follow...

i did find an inspiration piece for the station i want to build...but that will probably be a project for early 2019...

update...11-01-2018...

the patterns for the major parts of the house are in the PDF below...it's designed to fit on a 3" x 4 1/2" x 3/4" thick base...the fence sections are 3/4" tall...complete base and fence details have been posted in several of the previous "Pack-O-Fun" house topics...

my very best regards...
