Louise, thanks for commenting! I’m glad you enjoyed the post. The houses I put on the display ranged from 3-5 inches or so. I have a few larger ones that I put onto the Christmas tree in our guest room. I’d love to see pictures when you make some little houses. ~~Rhonda

Thank you so much for posting these. I’ve been looking for how to do this ever since I first saw the ones in Martha Stewart. A good friend found your site for me and I’m so excited to get started on mine. I’m going to try to use my cricut cartridge to cut my houses. Your’s are so pretty. Hope mine turn out as well. What hight did you make your largest house?
Thanks again, Louise

Thanks so much for sharing I have been wanting to make these next year is my year to sit down and do it. I think yours is more beautiful than Martha’s.

Lisa, I didn’t prime any of mine and they look great. Some of them are three years old and they still look new. But I did use cardstock, which has a tight finish. If I used cardboard, I would prime it first because cardboard will soak up a lot of paint. But I’d give it a primer coat with acrylic, not buy latex. Basically, they’re the same thing. If you have some household latex leftover from a painting project, use that. The point is to seal the cardboard so it doesn’t make the final layer look blotchy. I hope you’ll make some little houses. It’s a fun project! ~~Rhonda

These are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing. I have been drooling over these for years, and slowly gathering materials, hoping to try it this year. I have read directions that insist you must prime with latex paint– it doesn’t appear that you do this? Is it not necessary? Thank you!

These are just amazing! I love and collect Putz houses but have never attempted to make even one. Your display is just beautiful. Great job! Pamela
