Home.

There's just something about houses that is so heartwarming to me. When I was younger, I would doodle a house with a tree out front, a mailbox, a fence. Amazingly, I can draw that house right now and it looks not unlike my own today.  Houses symbolize strength, warmth, joy, family. They elude feelings of security and love. And do you notice, the houses that we are drawn to are not masive and expensive, but cozy, simple and quaint. 

I made this glittered little saltbox house this weekend.  It had been sitting here, seeping no inspiration, until the Tiddlywampus got out my glitters for a project of her own. I covered it in ModPodge, sprinkled it with glitter, and Viola!


All of this inspired me to go house hunting! But not for expensive Real Estate, just shopping around on etsy!



Love the felt roof on this house by Humblebea



This one reminds me of my Uncle, who lived in the mountains.
