I'm hoping that there may be a designer (or group of designers) here that may want to take on this challenge.
I love looking at the Christmas/Winter villages that are on display at the department stores and craft stores this time of year. While they are fun, for my budget I cannot justify the expense (most are $40 and go up to $120 or so per building) and another main concern is that I live in a small space (and storing a huge ceramic village would not be a wise use of my space either).
I've tried looking at the options for inexpensive, smaller alternatives out of paper mache or plaster. Problem is, I'm not a talented artist and I'm afraid it would look like a kid did it.
My request: Could someone here come up with a printable of various village houses where I could just print them out on cardstock, cut and put together. I'm looking to have them already look like houses. I would just cut out windows to add a battery tea light and maybe use some glitter glue for snow. I was even thinking that Heather's Milk Carton template might work as a base house design if she would want to be a part of a 2 scoop or triple dip.
I would love to have a variety of buildings or options for making a variety and I would be willing to pay between $20-$35 for a large set of houses.
Thanks for considering.
