Little Houses

Hi there friends, just realised I forgot to post my hubbies's latest little houses. I wanted him to make me some and paint them in Spring/Summer colours as he has made a few for Winter and Autumn last year (photo's at the bottom in case you missed them earlier).

 

I just adore them and switch them around with the seasons now, along with similar coloured flowers, cushion covers and paintings we have in the house. We like quite plain colours for floors/walls/curtains so I like to inject a bit of colour for each season with accessories ;)

 

He also made this sweet fairy/mushroom house, I was going to learn to felt little mice so they could peep out of the windows but he wasn't keen on the idea lol. Plus I am still getting my head around learning to felt!!

His latest project is a gorgeous little cottage, he is still painting it as yet, taken him ages to complete this one. He takes his time adding all the small details which make such a difference. The tiny windows he carves takes the longest he says.

He gets his inspiration from other smaller models mostly but likes to add his own details and colours. Anyway come and take a peek at his latest projects. Back with his new cottage too once it's finished ....I love it already ;)

Back later today with my latest Flower Challenge card too, see you then ;) Look after yourselves and stay safe!!

More little houses

Hi there friends, not cards today but little houses! I am sharing some more made by my talented hubbie. Very photo heavy so apologies in advance. I also took a few of one of the houses in progress so you can see what happens.

Anyway here they are below for your perusal. He has quite a few made now and has also made a little ladder type shelf to keep them all on. So I can show you them all together here. He has given one away to our grandson too so that one is missing,.... he spotted it and asked for it lol.

He seemed surprised I was going to show them all to you lol. I said only other crafters will know how much work you put into making them ;) ....and no he doesn't sell them before you ask, he just likes making things. Yes we will end up with a whole village soon lol! I suggested he copy people's cottages/houses and try and sell them!

Back next with our two dolls houses  we both fixed/altered and peg dolls I decorated also. Enjoy your day/week whatever you have planned ;)

This one isn't made out of wood, despite the appearance. It was created

from a tree stump, he made a silicone mould from some bark and then

created it using home made paper clay.

This one was built on a real wooden stump. Excuse my bright  coloured seahorse in the background lol (between the steps).  

Oops the sea horse sneaked in again... sorry!!  

A couple still in progress. The decoupage either side is mine btw.    

 All of them together, minus one our grandson has now. Excuse the mess ;) The church (far left) is still my favourite I think, although the windows I printed are fading a bit now. 

His latest model house, in progress. The mini roof tiles are made from egg boxes ;)

Almost finished now, chimney added and all painted. He is going to add a garden to this one soon.

Another view.

He carved the windows and said they were very fiddly!!
