Christmas isn't over here

I know Christmas is over but it doesn't mean I have to stop making decorations. I have been obsessed with vintage paper Christmas houses. I would buy them but they are either too expensive or I don't have the patience to try to find fabulous vintage ones or I am not a good enough shopper to find a great knockoffs somewhere. So I am going to make them myself. I have big plans in my head that I will make a whole village. Here is the first try. It is not quite finished. I still need to put the paper in the windows and sprinkle on that fabulous mica glitter. I ordered some today but I won't have it for a week or so. I had to take a picture though because I am very happy with it so far. Now I just have to be on the lookout for fun little things I can embellish them with. I found a website today that has some beautiful handmade houses.

I think this new day job I have (see below) has renewed my interest in making pretty things. After being around kids who's whole life revolves around x-box and rap stars, I can't wait to be around all things pretty and glittery.
