I was not happy not having a project while recovering from my auto accident.  I could handle the cross stitching but it was getting old!  Sooooooo! I ordered the Greenleaf 1/4 scale village kits. Not knowing if I would be able to handle it or not!  But thought the pieces would be small and lightweight, and being tab and slot construction not a lot of cutting and sawing...
There are 2 houses, an english tudor and a victorian.

I placed them on a styrofoam base, 2 inches thick by 2 x 3 feet.  Made a hillside on one end with another piece of styrofoam cut in 2 pieces, stacked and shaved down on one side to an angle, pined the street lights down with floral pins and covered the whole thing with sheet cotton, fluffed and pulled up around the base of the lights. Placed the houses on the hill and made the appearence of a road running across the bottom of the hill in front of the houses, with an intersection at the center with the roadway down the center of town.  The white trees with no leaves are dried crape myrtle flower stems cut from the yard and sprayed with the foam snow. Even though I was still working, my browsing was limited, because my traveling was limited. But, I did find some tiny icicles and glued them to some of the eaves and sprinkled snow on the edges of the roofs.  The large tree between the 2 house is lit with a battery pack set of lights that were being sold for sweat shirt decoration...made perfect lights for the little tree!  I made furnishings, sofas,chairs,tables,store counters, etc from scraps. Used lace trimming for the curtains...
 This is the church, toyshop and stable.....

I used scraps from everything to make furnishings for all the little buildings.  Found a cruxifix just the right size at the local dollar store in the jewelry dept.  Made a few pews, an altar for the church and placed the cross on the wall behind it. I  found tiny things to use for toys in the toy shop.
