xmas houses for Harley


My 9 year-old nephew is one creative dude.He has talked about creating a winter village for xmas and this year I have finally gotten around to giving it a try. These tiny houses originated in germany ( I believe) and they are called putz.Yea,you read it right,putz.A terrible name for such a great item.Anyhow,here's house 1 and 2.The white house is 4.5 inches tall(including chimney). The yellow one is 2.75(again,inc. chimney).To give you an idea of scale, the doorknobs are glass seed beads I personally love them,I hope he does too.
