Tiny Christmas Houses - 2 (set of 3 hanging ornaments)
PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Marie-Anne Réthoret-Mélin

Part of Marie-Anne Rethoret-Melin's wonderful collection of creative Christmas ornament projects, here come the New miniature houses series, that can either be hung from the tree or paired with some wood or foliage to create a little Christmas village. These 3 new ornaments come with matching colors and complementary motifs to the initial Tiny House ornament series.

The new designs include the Green shutter House, The Hearts House and the Potted trees House. Metallic highlights of golden light shine through the windows, giving them a warm, welcoming feel and snow on the window sills shows it's a cold winter night.

The devil is always in the detail and that is what makes a really good design. This is no regular cube. Notice how the designer has given the walls and roofs a unique shape that makes the houses look so cute.  When mounting the walls, you will need some thin but rigid felt to add a bit of structure (although you could also use iron-on adhesive if you are more confortable with it). 

The houses measure approximately 3 inch (8 cm) high. The cross stitch chart comes with a well-thought out tutorial to guide you through every step.
