I cut the pattern for this house yesterday. I painted and assembled it, and did a little bit of landscaping. I finished the landscaping today, It went together quickly because it’s a fairly simple pattern. There aren’t as many pieces to paint as some other patterns have. The base measures 5 1/2″ wide by 3 […]
I set this little house aside because it needed something extra. I knew it needed sunflowers, so I ordered those. I also thought it needed something above the second floor window over the door. I added a decorative beam, and called it good. I photographed the needed shots and posted them to the blog on […]
A sweet autumn house, with a yard bursting with flowers and littered with fallen leaves. A beautiful card makes the perfect base for the autumn / Thanksgiving house. The back of the house is fitted with the traditional hole for the use of an LED light string to brighten the house after the sun goes […]
These autumn putz houses are listed in my Etsy shop. Two autumn houses, two looks. One with an autumn tree, one without. The bases on both houses are made from vertical greeting cards, rather than horizontal cards. If the house isn’t more than three inches wide, it should fit well on a vertical card. Wider […]

My putz houses are made in three sizes. The largest size is ORIGINAL which is approximately 5-6″ tall. It is the size I draw all new patterns. MINI is 3-4″ tall. To get this size, I copy an pattern at 75% of its original size. TINY MINI is up to 2″ tall, and is copied […]
