Last month my sister and I got together to make glitter houses. My grandmother had a Putz house on her Christmas tree that I remember as a child and I thought it would be fun to try to recreate one. There are many tutorials and templates available on the internet and I also found Melissa Frances kits at Simon Says Stamp. 5 of the houses above are from the kits and the largest one is a template. The 3 small houses are for my grandchildren. I plan to recruit my husband to draft a plan of our house and make them for my daughters. Not sure if that will happen before Christmas though. I used a variety of glitters, PTI paper, the little trees are from the local craft store and Melissa Frances, Aleene's snow and some vellum in the windows. It was a fun project for my sister to do together.
These are all so very pretty and will be treasured gifts for years to come!.
