I have wanted to make little houses for such a long time, but I didn't really have a place to put them or know what I was going to do with them. This year after finishing building a real house for my brother and in between some renovation that has to wait for fall, I decided the time is right for little houses. I had to come up with somewhere for them to go so I decided to have a fundraiser for a Head Start school that my work adopts for Christmas. I figure it's easier to do it in October than December when everyone is too busy. So I am making Halloween houses that I'm going to sell to support the Christmas Head Start program.
I am posting a few here so you can see what I've been up to. I call them "scrapbook-type houses" because mostly they are covered with paper, rather than paint and glitter. I am a little scared to post them, but this is such a kindly forum, I know I don't have anything to worry about. The three houses are "Steampunk Lock and Key House" (the artsy type house according to my brother), my first "Clock House" and one I call the "Flying Witch House". The clock house is almost all done, it needs some pumpkins and a little halloween decor. The Steampunk Lock and Key house is done. And the Flying Witch House will some more decor and a little glitter.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge so I figure out how to do build these little houses.
