good afternoon...

here are the patterns for the roof and chimney...you may have to cut, score and fold the roof a couple of times to get the right fit...note that one of the score lines is on the back of the roof...an optional chimney cap can be added...just a small square of cardboard with a hole in the center...not going to post patterns for the base and fence...

my very best regards...howard...

Wonderful!
I know this must have been mentioned before, but what is "snow-tex?"
