Jan-chan’s Tidbits

Last week we had a tone of snow and for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day I didn’t get to go anywhere so I decided work on yet another paper craft project. This time is the Santa’s house. I found the pattern on Canon’s Creative Park website. It’s got lots of interesting projects you can make as gifts.

Here’s a look at the interior of the house. The neat thing about this house is that there are three main components, the exterior of the house acts as a box, the interior of the house can slide out showing two levels, then the lower level can also be pulled out making it easy to see all the details inside.

[Completed house with the first floor tucked inside.]

It took about 25 hours to finish the house. There were many little components to cut but I had fun making it, especially near the end when I was decorating the house with all the presents and little details.

I’ve posted more photos of the house, with shots of individual rooms, in my Picasa Album.

PS: Kaya ♥~ the gold fish pattern is from the Yamaha paper craft website. Have fun! I’d love to see photos of your completed project!
