I bought some (5 or 6) on closeout last Christmas, white, to be painted. I was going to paint them over Thanksgiving down in the garage, but... with the broken leg, they simply have to wait until next year.

I like your collection.

Love your bookcase display, arcy! How cool that you were able to personalize the houses!

My snowman village is twenty years old this Christmas. It has three shops and a clock tower. They're made of white porcelain so they really glow when lighted. I have saved cotton from pill bottles and elsewhere over the years and try to make the snow look like drifts--it's a lot of work getting it to look like the real deal! The snowwoman with the broom has to sweep paths through the entire village. I hope she gets paid well!

How fun! next year we will need this thread again and I will add mine. For years it was an annual project for the boys to pick out a house for mom to paint and once they got older they each tried one themselves. These are those white ones from the craftstore too. I have a bunch but they are also not out this year. I also have a few of the cardboard antique houses to put out as well. My oldest son and his wife have started buying the houses and painting them too

I don't have one, but I love looking at other people's!
