Whoa! I am so glad Maria commented on this because I might have missed it. She is right - the colors are so elegant.

Update...2-24-2021...

Greetings to all...

Here is a new house I'm adding to the "Pack-O-Fun" series...I'm calling it the "Angle House"...it's was inspired by the black and white picture below...I don't remember where i saw or when i saved the image...but it fits in perfectly with all the other small houses that sit on 3" x 4 1/2" x 3/4" bases...

I did change the window a little, add a step and extend the fences down the sides to near the back edge...

Speaking of windows...mine will be hand cut card stock...if you get your windows from Pete...http://cardboardputzhouses.com/cellowindows.php ...you'll have to make adjustments to the opening to fit his windows...

I'll post a picture of the completed house in a few weeks...stay tuned...

That looks like a newspaper photo. The angle house is perfect for this series. I look forward to seeing your newest house.

That looks like it's from an old newspaper photo. You must have a wonderful collection of ideas for the future.

The angle house is perfect for this series. I look forward to seeing your newest house finished.
