Christmas is coming so it is time to make another glitter house

For the last 7 years I have made a glitter house a year, the patterns were all freely available on this website http://www.littleglitterhouses.com/ This is a picture of last years house in progress. This became the dark house on the right hand side in the following picture.

It is made of grey board. Traditionally they are made of cereal packets, but I wanted them to be more robust. Cereal packets would have been so so much easier to cut. However they are sturdy.
This is the village, each house is a different year and at the bottom of each house I write the key events of the year. They get wrapped up with the christmas decorations and put away every year, so when we take them out again it is really lovely to read what has happened. It is time to make a new house! Only problem is that I am running out of space. 


Ah no!! the village has been invaded by many rudolph's.
