Hello all,
My name is Luann,
I’m so happy to be here, Thank you Paul for your help getting onto the forum!
I remember the Putz village my parents had when I was little, my Dad set it up every year under the Christmas tree! I loved it.
I wish I still had it today but unfortunately, I don’t know what happened to it.
I heard about making the little houses a few years ago, and started saving cardboard.
Then last year I decided to try and make some.
I searched online and found Howard’s Little Glitter Houses web site.
I got started right away and enjoyed it so much I made four of the houses and one church,
before Christmas last year.
I then found The Pack Of Fun Houses and made those early this year, although I think when I printed the pattern out it somehow got turned around and the windows and doors are on the opposite side of what they’re supposed to be. It didn’t matter to me, I still loved them so I left them that way.
After a few months I started thinking about making more houses.
I was reading posts on the forum and saw The Ten Cent City Houses, I knew they would be my next project.
I have five houses made and the church is in progress.
I have red cellophane for the windows but not the doors.
Would someone please help me with where to get the doors.
Thank you.
I will post pictures as soon as I figure out how.

Hi Luann
Welcome to the forum!!

We love to hear about each other's projects and see the pictures, so please share yours we would love to see them!!

Thank you all for a warm welcome and for help in finding doors and other pieces I may need.
I’ll try to post pictures of my houses and what I’m working on.

Top left five houses are Howard’s patterns, I started with the pink one and enjoyed making them so much, I had to make more.
The manger I made by looking at a larger one that I already had.
Thank you for the patterns Howard!
Top right are The Pack Of Fun Houses and at bottom are Houses I won at an auction on eBay. They are all stamped Japan on the bottom.

Ten cent city houses I’m working on.

Really nice job!! You have a great collection!

Yes! And welcome

GREAT START on those houses, Luann!
