good morning...

lynn...so glad you included the cute little santa and sleigh detail...i saw it on the original "pack-o-fun" pattern page...

but didn't really understand how perfect an accent it is on the roof it really is...

your cutout and painting are super...wouldn't a painted profile of a deer or two be neat in front of the sleigh?...

by the way...have you...or anyone else...tried making the two-piece cardboard trees that were also on the pattern pages?

my very best regards...howard...

Hi Howard I love the idea of adding a reindeer or two. I never thought about making the trees but that's a good ides as well maybe I will give it a try.

I finished my 2nd house and first loggie. Howard, thanks for posting the pattern - it helped tremendously and my biggest problem was figuring out what order to assemble the parts so I could fit that roof correctly. Now I just need to remember what I did for the next time.

Here are my last 2 Pack-O-Fun houses, the church and the green house. I did re-size the green house a bit and like Howard my chimney is separate from the house. I would like to make some more trees, in different sizes.

Lynn...I've been away for four days...(but it seems like a week)... :D ...saw pix of the church and green house while away...they both look like part of a vintage set...just like they should :D ...so happy to see the two piece cardboard tree, too...and as always...I'm looking forward to your next project...

My very best regards...Howard...
