I enjoy making the miniature versions of these little glitter houses and this one was no exception. It is decorated with mulberry paper flowers, velvet flowers, hand-crafted Easter eggs and preserved moss. When the lights come on, everything comes to life. The back has the traditional hole to allow the use of an LED light […]
Last week brought winter weather and plunging temps, but inside, I was all about spring and summer. On Monday, I began the work of landscaping the mini Putz barn. I had to decide on which sheep to use. I found these three in my stash. The two smaller ones came from my mother’s house after […]
I spent most of the week working on Putz houses. On Monday, this church was fully assembled and ready for embellishments. I made the pattern in two sizes. The church on the left is the full-size pattern. The one on the right was reduced to 80% of the original size. In addition to the churches, […]
I love the miniature Putz houses and this one is a particular favorite. I love these colors and the pattern, as well. Pictures don’t do this little house justice. The base is made from an upcycled greeting card. As soon as I saw this card, I knew I had to make a Putz for it. […]
I have listed two Easter Putz churches to my Etsy shop. They were a refreshing change from making snowy, winter Putz houses. The first one is a miniature version of the church. I copied the pattern at 80% of the original size. It’s always fun to see the Putz with the lights on. It brings […]

Wednesday morning started with the sunrise shining on my Santa and Mrs. Santa paper doll cutouts that hang on the side of the cabinet in the craft room. […]
I am currently working on four little glitter houses, all of them Irish cottages. I drew this pattern in March of 2017. Here’s the mini version of this sweet, little cottage. I made four regular-size ones and two minis. The mini ones are copied at 80% of the original size of the pattern. I am […]
This week seemed to fly by. So much to do. So little time. I am in the process of tailoring a planner to fit my own needs. It makes me aware of how much I want to do and how much more time I would need to do it all! But it IS helping me […]
