I have made several MINI and TINY MINI Putz houses lately, so I went back to an ORIGINAL size this time. The base has a beautiful picket fence on it. I used colors from the Christmas card to paint the Putz house. The card on the base has a large wreath, so I added two […]
I woke up early this morning and started on this Putz house. I cut the pattern from poster board, added window panes, painted and assembled it in about four hours. I didn’t know I could make one that quickly. I did have the base ready beforehand. I keep a box of bases already made, so […]
I drew the pattern for this little Putz church with inspiration from a vintage Christmas postcard that I saw online. When I make a Putz church, I like to use a nativity card for the base. This one inspired the use of yellow and red on the church building. I chose a darker red than […]
I finished this schoolhouse this weekend. It’s listed in my Etsy shop. The card I used for the base features a little school building and snowy day activities. When one of my Putz houses is tilted, the card is a little surprise on the bottom. I try to coordinate the colors on the card and […]
This Putz of a tiny house and covered bridge went to a good home right after I made it. I may have to make one for myself because I loved it so much. The Christmas card, which I used to make the base, inspired the layout of the Putz. I had a pattern for a […]
I just finished this tiny, pale grey Putz house. It sits at an angle to the side with a curved walk to the front door. The colors of the Putz are inspired by the Christmas card I used as the base. I picked up on the grey and red. The picture on the card shows […]
I finished this mini schoolhouse yesterday. I probably would have put a green roof on it if I hadn’t wanted to use colors from the Christmas card I used to make the base. After it was finished, I was very happy with the roof color. I had chosen a different card for the base, but […]
This Putz church is listed in my Etsy shop (information below). It is the original size of the pattern. The base measures 6 1/4″ wide x 3 5/8″ deep. The church is 7 3/4″ tall as measured from the bottom of the base to the top of the steeple. The pattern I drew for the […]
Sometimes, when making Putz houses, it can be hard to find items small enough for use as embellishments, such as wreaths, snowmen, etc. Now that I am making mini and tiny-mini sized Putz houses, I have started making my own wreaths to get the sizes I want. It’s easy, it’s cheap, and they can be […]
I think the blog problems have been ironed out. I had troubles in December, and again the past few months. In the mean time, I have made a lot of new Putz houses. Here are a few of them. I draft all my own patterns. Lately, I’ve been making three sizes. ORIGINAL, which is 100% […]
