Target Transformation! A fun Christmas crafting project!

I'm not ready to pull out the Christmas bins yet (Halloween wears me out) but in case you happen to be interested in future Christmas crafting projects, Target is selling these reproduction putz houses for $3.

 The colors are a bit "bright" so I decided to tone it down. I removed the pipe cleaners and replaced them with my own. I also brushed the entire house with white glue and dusted it with fine glitter.

 The decorating options are endless and this could even be a project that you do with your kiddos (minus the glue gun part).

 I haven't had time in weeks to do any crafting, so this gave me a much needed fix. Happy Christmas crafting!

Tiny tweaks...a tour of my Christmas putz village

The living room fireplace mantle almost didn't get decorated this Christmas. 

I misplaced my putz houses.

I have quite the stash, including this amazing red and white one designed by Erica (Golden Egg Vintage).

I searched through every tub of Christmas, but couldn't find them ANYWHERE!

It took Chris taking apart our furnace/storage room and moving a box of Easter to discover these little treasures.

 Most of the houses were estate sale acquisitions that received fresh makeovers with a bit of new paint and lots of glitter.

Such a happy little Christmas village. 

I'm glad you were found!

XOXO
