I threaded twine through clothes pins to hold the houses and create a garland. I need to add some pins because my mantle is full and I need more space.
This year I am just organizing. There’s a lot going on in October and I’m floored that the month starts tomorrow!
Ohhhh
it looks amazing!!
I’m anxious to start!!!
Me too!
Partners:

I’m excited to see what y’all make! I’m going to set up the gallery. Link will be at the top of the first post.
I’ve already started planning out for my two partners!
@marionberries I always enjoy the challenge of making something unique and different for my regular swap partners (man, have we swapped a lot over the years!!!).
@MissingWillow I’ve got way too many ideas but I know I will have fun crafting for you and adding to your awesome collection!
I dunno if people will still be looking at this thread? But if you are I wanna see if anybody would be interested in doing more houses and doing a personal swap for an additional house. I would like to add two more!
I received from @MissingWillow ! I will post pics tomorrow. It is fabulous and very different and clever!
*hints: pumpkin, purple, glitter!!!
I am in the let paint and glue dry stage. I have a hard time walking away. But I think I will have lunch…..
I hate that part too. I started using permanent glue sticks .. ![]()
I finished up both and they’ll be on their way to their new homes tomorrow! ![]()
Hey there, Chunky House makers! Please consider entering your spooky houses in the Halloween Spooktacular Challenge for 2025!

Almost finished. One is done and the other just needs a magic potion to bring it to life. Mailing by the weekend.
Aaagh…I need to start on this! I think I signed up for too many swaps at the same time. I’ve been seeing more I would like to join, but do not want to get over extended.
The send out date is fast approaching! It is this Friday, Oct 24. If you can’t make the date, please let myself and your partners know.

We got a bit of unexpected humid weather so I am just waiting for everything to be really dry. I hope to mail tomorrow since my partners have mailed out early. I love displaying my houses!
Finally finished! I was a bit worried about this one, but after some more brainstorming I’m excited for my partners to receive their houses. I just have to pack it up and send out (probably tomorrow).
Oh wow, in October even!
It was very windy and chilly here yesterday. Today it’s sunny and pleasant.
