spring putz, beautiful flowers, and a twining vine

I found this little putz house in a drawer while decluttering. It was constructed and painted. The base was completed and dated 2025. I have forgotten why I set it aside. I pulled it out, put it together and landscaped it. The base is made from an upcycled greeting card. I am guessing the size […]

tiny handcrafted bird’s nest is a special detail

The Easter card used to make the base inspired the colors of the putz house. As soon as I saw this beautiful card, I knew I would make an Easter house with it. My thanks to the friend who donated the card to me! I appreciate donations! The base measures 4 7/8″ wide by 7 […]

open doors welcome you to Easter services

This pink and blue Easter church features a pip stem tree, a tiny bird nest and beautiful spring flowers. The base is made from an upcycled, Easter greeting card which pictures a rabbit and a Bible verse. “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation.” 2 Corinthians 5:17a, KJV The colors […]

mini Easter Putz church

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 […]

spring putz barn

I just finished this sweet, little spring Putz barn. It has been listed to my Etsy shop. Daffodil, the spring lamb, stands on a bed of grass made from preserved moss. Mulberry paper flowers embellish the scene. The base for the Putz is made from an upcycled greeting card. Aren’t these little lambs cute? The […]

miniature, spring putz house

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. […]

Easter Putz churches

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 […]

last week in pictures / feb 11 – 17, 2019

Another week has flown by. I managed to finish a couple of Irish cottage Putz to list to my Etsy shop. The second cottage included some shamrocks. 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. […]

Irish cottage putz house

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 […]

garden pics

I took these shots to share on Tuesday, but life got hectic for a few days, so am sharing them now. The columbine has come on thick and fast this week. It’s a nice long bloomer and adds color to the beds this time of year. My favorite columbine is the blue one… I thought […]
