2014 Putz Village - It's a beginning

Please use this forum for photos of your putz villages - some of you don't make your own houses, but you still display a lot of artistry when you combine and arrange them. And the rest of us would love to see your work. Again, it works best if you resize your photos to 800px wide or less before you upload them - Paul

2014 Putz Village - It's a beginning

Post by Laurie »

My first Putz Christmas Village with my restored houses and a few post war ones as well. Ten houses is my limit so that it fits on top of a small bookcase. Thanks to the tips and the inspiration I received from the villages posted here, it turned out pretty cozy. It will be fun to add to it each year.

Thanks for sharing pics Laurie. I really enjoy how everyone incorporates various elements and creates a unified and beautiful scene like yours. Now I pick up any trees in roughly the correct size range no matter the color or style because they all can work together. It makes putzing enjoyable without worrying about the strict scale correctness of a model train layout or architectural model.

Thanks again!

Laurie, your village looks great!! It always amazes me how we work on our houses and collect our figures all year long and then at Christmas they all come to life just like yours have done!!
