I made this Putz house to feature the picket fence. The tutorial for making this fence is here: Making picket fences for Putz houses The base measures 6 1/4″ wide x 4″ deep. The Putz is 4 3/4″ tall as measured from the bottom of the base to the top of the chimneys. The base […]
The little bitties are fun to make. Because they are so small, I can put two on a base for a little village scene. This is the one I just finished. Or a country scene like this one with a farm house and a tiny barn. It was the first combo I made. The second […]
After making this Putz house, I decided to write a tutorial about how to make the picket fence. It’s not hard. Just takes a little time. But after you have made a few, it becomes easier and quicker. Supplies needed: popsicle sticks X-acto / craft knife scallop scissors zigzag scissors straight scissors posterboard or coffee […]
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 […]
