The latest listing to my Etsy shop is this summer Putz barn in dark red and light blue. Daisy, the cow, waits in the front yard to greet you.
The base is 6″ wide and 3 1/4″ deep. The Putz is 4 1/4″ tall, as measured from the bottom of the base to the top of the chimney.
I use upcycled greeting cards to make bases for my Putz creations. The colors I use to paint the building and the base are taken from the colors of the picture on the greeting card.
In this case, the colors are the dark red of the sheds, the blue of the sky and the roofs of a few of the sheds, and the green of the grass.
Aglow with light, the Putz comes to life.
You can see my Putz houses and other Christmas ornaments in my Etsy shop.

I am always happy to answer questions about the process. Please ask, if you are wondering about the details of putzing!
