update...3/25/2018...
finally finished!...i'll let the pictures tell the story...except for a few details...
the trees were from Walmart...i added balls cut from strings of dollar store party beads...
the stained glass window graphics were some i found online...
they're kinda hard to see...but there are vintage glass bells in the towers...(thanks to one of my longtime forum friends!)
my usual glitter and mica flakes final finish...
i think my little reproduction style candy santa looks right at home...
my very best regards...
Howard...

This turned out great Howard. Again - such a happy finish and Santa does add quite the sparkle. He does exude a welcome personality.

Everything about it is wonderful - the building itself, the colors, the delightful little fellow out front. Wonderful. It makes me smile.
