Sparkling fireworks highlight this Fourth of July putz house. Sit back and enjoy the celebration!
I handcrafted the picket fence from coffee stir sticks.
The fireworks fit into plastic tubes on the back of the house. When the season is over, remove the fireworks and store them with the house for next year’s celebration. The putz comes with a protective sleeve for storing the fireworks.
My hand for scale. This putz is made in the size I call ORIGINAL. Putz this size range between 4″ – 6″ tall. ORIGINAL size churches are an exception in height, as they may have steeples that measure 8″ – 9″ tall.
In process. The first picture shows the house after it has been painted, assembled, and glued to the base. The fence and flag are added. The second shot shows the house and landscaping done except for the addition of the fireworks.
If you have questions about my posted putz houses, or about creating your own putz houses, please ask. I am happy to share what I have learned about the art of putzing.
