I am really really trying to get a handle on my overstuffed studio- first I attempted to organize and straighten up what is hanging around- but I always seem to fall back into default mode- to clean up supplies -use them to create something!
So looking at a bag of old wooden blocks, a pile of paper scraps and bottles of paint I thought why not just make some art houses to use up the materials. So that is what I did and here are some of the pieces I created.

Back of House
It was so much fun to make these pieces! How adorable to give someone who has just gotten married, or is celebrating an anniversary, or moving into thier own place one of these to celebrate the occasion!
One of the fun things about making these wooden houses is finding embellishements in my stash to use - the picture above uses some old washes, bingo chips, wire scraps and discarded metal.
I made a house for each of my daughters for the new apartments they live in- this one is for my youngest who lives in Philly. My oldest lives in NC but I forgot to take pictures before I sent it out and am waiting for her to send some to me.
I have a few of the ones I made at Chimayo Gallery in Perkasie, and have a few to list yet on Etsy--and in the end- a little bit of the studio spaced got cleared up!
