NEW SERIES WOODEN HOUSE/NOV-INT

The new series of WOODEN HOUSES starts in November. The themes below are in stone, so if you're really enthusiastic, you can start them early.

There is a thread in the forum titled 'can you cut WOOD.' There are pictures and inspiration for you there. Also if you have questions you can ask there as well.

This will be a monthly swap for 12 months. Each month will have a theme.. These houses can be decoupaged, beaded, painted, classy chic, somerset style, you name it. I have also seen them made into fishing shacks, restaurants and saloons. Let your imagination get the best of you.

The houses are cut from EITHER a pieces of 2 x 4 or 1x4. Not to be taller than 7". Please use different angle cuts at the roof area so everyone doesn't receive all perfectly cut roofs. (pics on thread)

PLEASE sand any rough edges to smooth. This will be a part of the rate you receive for the overall project.

Low down;

ONE house. Edges must be smoothed. No special requests. Try not send the same roof style every month (see thread in forum)

ALL CQ members are encouraged to participate. But PLEASE, if you don't think you can send out a great quality swap, please don't join.

Sending late will not be tolerated since there is a 12 month time frame to do them in.

Nov: MUSICAL

Dec: snowflake

Jan; newspaper

Feb; dragonfly

March; free choice

April: flower

May: bird

June: a key

July: an animal or animal print

So each month you will have to incorporate the item for that month.

The color of the house is entirely up to the crafter/sender.

HAVE A BLAST!
