Pretty Little Putz



Did I mention that  I have another little addiction....I can quit this at anytime, really!
I love little houses and country churches...

There's something so quaint and comforting about a little meeting house out in the country or back in the woods.  I have a few wooden churches as well....I keep them nestled in my forest of bottle brush trees so the pinecone elves and gnomes have a place to meet an celebrate the season..

 Have a Merry VCM!

    Those are sweet little houses...I have a couple that go around the train tracks. Even Michaels is starting to sell them. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas.

    How sweet to build a little village for the pinecone elves! I love these little houses and churches too. They tend to make the imagination run wild making you want to be a tiny little person so you could go inside.
    I understand your addiction.
    Love it!

    I can understand the addiction! These little houses are adorable. I love how you have them displayed in front of the old tin ceiling piece.
    I would love to participate in Silver Sunday...can I be added to your list? Thanks!
    Have a great week.

    You have a wonderful collection, and I can see why it would be an addiction! You're building a neighborhood, for goodness sake, so of course you need more!
    Merry Christmas and Happy VCM!

    I would love the houses and churches as a collection, so sweet! Is that Santa checking his list in front of the house on the bottom? What a great collection. ~ Theresa

    Hi Beth, I love these little houses and churches too. I just wish I would have known about them as a child at Christmas, they would have been so much fun! Now I want to see the gnomes and elves!

    I just adore putz houses, but I don't have a single one! I've been on the lookout for some as darling as yours.

    Thanks so much for making your way over to visit me!

    Betty, I love little country churches too! Whenever my husband and I take a drive we always take along the camera and whenever I see a little church, I get a picture of it! I can't get enough of them!

    I just recently fell in love with 'Putz' or 'Glitter' houses and just the other day posted about making my first one . . . a church! LOL! Hope you'll stop by the Manor for a peek!

    Thanks so much for sharing.

    Blessings,
    Teresa
