My Christmas tour continues with more tiny treasures. This time, I'm featuring my collection of houses and miniature elves that are currently residing on my living room fireplace mantle .
Most of the houses were estate sale putz houses that received fresh makeovers with a bit of new paint and lots of glitter.
I've mixed plastic houses with putz cardboard houses.
My mother made this little church several years ago. I love the flocked roof.
This winter wonderland is made up of lots of white felt and frosted garland. Such a happy little Christmas village.
I love your village and all the special touches! It looks like you have the perfect mantle to display it. The church your mum made is lovely. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI love your Christmas Village mantle . . . I can imagine your girls dreaming of a life in the village as they look at your creation. So lovely Kim . . .
ReplyDeleteI remember a village with a church, a steeple and houses and stores in the window seat in our living room at Christmas time. The village laid on a cotton like felt that glitzened a bit like snow crystals. I would sit beside the window seat as a little girl back in the mid forties and pretend . . .
Thank you for bringing me those memories . . .
Very happy indeed! Thanks for sharing! ♥

You've created a magical little neighborhood! I'm curious if you made your felt icicles or not. I need some, but have been wondering if I should tackle it myself or just buy some. I bet anything you MADE them...knowing you! lol
ReplyDeleteErica :)
Ooh, this makes me eager to put out my decorations! Hopefully this weekend. I love your putz houses up on the mantle- maybe I'll change things up and do that this year- I usually put them in a glass cabinet. Keep the eye candy coming!!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet --love these!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful and sweet village!! I love the flocked roof on the church your mom made, too! xo Heather

Kim, your little putz Christmas village is delightful! And I think your elves would be very good friends with the little tomten and woodland creatures on my piano.
ReplyDeleteI love those pine cones guys that look like they are playing instruments or drumming. Very cute village!
ReplyDeletePure sweetness! I wish I was really there to play! Sweet hugs!
ReplyDeletethey're so sweet!
ReplyDeleteKim,

You have inspired me to spruce up a bit some of the Putz houses that I have in my little village under my Vintage Tree...Totally adoring what I did with yours!! What a wonderful display to have on your mantle!
