This MINI Putz house has been listed in my Etsy shop. It is the middle size of Putz that I make. I make TINY MINI, MINI, AND ORIGINAL. The four bottle brush trees were painted white, dusted with fine clear glitter, then dabbed with faux snow. While the snow was wet, they were sprinkled with […]
I made the base for this Putz a few months ago. I finally got around to making a pattern to mimic the shop pictured on the card. So cute! I love this card. So many nice details. The colors for the Putz are taken from the colors on the Christmas card. The sign was printed […]
I have been wanting to make a toy store Putz since January. Yesterday, I finally got around to it. I drew the pattern, then cut and constructed the Putz. I had the embellishments in my stash, so it was easy to put together. The base measures 6 3/8″ wide x 3 1/2″ deep. The Putz […]

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 […]
