It's coming along!




The glitter house that is. Over the weekend I cut out the parts, glued it together, and got on the white base coat. I did not start this from scratch: I repurposed a microwave popcorn box. The base is assembled from pizza box lid. Thank goodness the lid was totally clean!

I didn't want to recreate the wheel, so I used the instructions here:
Building a Glitterhouse-Howard's How To

Because I was working within the dimensions of my recycled box, I had to scale up the measurements. Not as hard as it sounds, I just multiplied everything by 1.5, except for the light hole in the back. I've got a special idea for that one. My lighted house is going to be cord free.
