Than you for your compliments! I really enjoy my village and the time I spend setting it up.

Thank you, Merry Christmas!

Thank you, this past year (2022) I did an extension of one of my platforms because I added three new houses and one new building. That was a lot more work than I expected because I had to reconfigure a number of areas. But in the end when completed I was happy with the results. Thanks for watching.

@@frankrich4153 You did a great job on it. I am looking forward to seeing your display this year. There is a video here on TH-cam of mine. I'm new to this posting video stuff.

Thank you!! ... Down for this year now will go back up next Nov 1, 2023.

Thank you for watching Nikon. And Merry Christmas to you from Jurupa Valley, California U.S.A.

You are welcome! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

This weekend I will be posting this year’s video. I expanded the platform a bit and added four pieces. So come back and see it!

Thank You for watching my video and your comment Mars. While there are a few segments of showing individual areas being created , the idea behind this video was to show the entire display and how I assemble it. As for the speed, over the years in creating videos I found that having a long video gets boring and most people lose interest quickly. So that is why I did the time laps and speeded it up. That said I totally get what you are saying and will start working on a story board for my next assembly video. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

You are welcome! Merry Christmas. I have added four pieces this year and will post a new video next week!

Sorry I missed your comment/question when you asked it seven months ago. However, here is the answer....it is the Dept. 56 "2000 Holly Lane". Was sold around December 1999 and was retired that year! It was like a stand alone starter piece with several components, that would get you off and running to a larger village arrangement. Thanks for watching and asking you question - Frank

Thank you, Merry Christmas!

Very nice and thank you for your comment.

Thank you, Merry Christmas!

It is a craft material I got several years ago from Amazon. Here is the link but you may need to search elsewhere since it is no longer available. It is like the black material on the bottom of furniture.

"Oly Fun Multipurpose Craft Material 60"" Wide 10yd D/R-Jet Black" www.amazon.com/dp/B00KKUXF8E/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_WEAPFW1V528FHH52F4ZQ?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Thank you! I just finished setting up for 2021 yesterday.

Thank you!

Thank you for watching and your kind words.

It is 48' long x 18' deep, so it is 864 square feet. Starts at 9' tall to around 12' tall in the back. Openings at the front are 14' wide at the widest point and 7'6" tall.

Thank you for your kind words and watching my video! I truly enjoy and love setting it up and sharing with people, it is a labor of love and joy of the season. I will start putting it up this year right after Halloween so it will be up for Thanksgiving.

Thanks for visiting. I will start putting it up next week for 2021.

So true, thank you for watching.

Thank you for your kind words. I am happy you enjoy my village. It will be going back up again soon!

I got two Snow Village houses as a gift one year. And I started buying more on Ebay. Didn't know better and I bought Alpine, Christmas in the City, Dickens. Later on I realized what a mess. I gave them away and kept the Snow Village. I downsized my living and now I live through the lives of people like you with your beautiful Village. I still have maybe 20 houses and many figures. You have inspired me to set them up this year, thank you! I look forward to seeing your village this year.

You are so welcome!

Thank you for watching and leaving a comment.

That is awesome! Remember in the video I talked about I started with just 5 or 6 pieces. So just get a few that you like and build form there. If you need any help or have any questions feel free to ask me. I too am looking forward to this 2021 Christmas, last year we were unable to share our village in person with family or friends due to the pandemic.

Thank you!

Thank you and good luck with your project.

AROUND $90 THOUSAND

Thank you.

That's great that you learned something. Thank you for subscribing! I hope you and your family are all well and safe.

Thank you!

Thank you, with the pandemic sadly we can't have people over to see the town. If you would like to see my finished display for this year, I just posted a video here on my channel a couple days ago. th-cam.com/video/iv7zV90XRnQ/w-d-xo.html

@@frankrich4153 Thanka you.

Not sure if I will answer your question correctly or not because almost all my pieces are porcelain / ceramic. I do prefer the glazed look of them, while the poly resin units have more detail and depth. I believe it depends on the piece and how it fits in your display. Also of course as with all items in life, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Thank you for viewing my video and your question. Happy New Year!

Thank you for your comment, Merry Christmas!

Thank you Beverly I hope you and yours are safe and have a Merry Christmas!

Thank you for your kind words, Merry Christmas!

Thank you, I added four new pieces this year and last Thursday completed the setup for 2020. Happy holidays!

Thank you Lynn and Merry Christmas!

Thank you, very much. I actually got four new pieces this year so it will be interesting to see how I make them fit...lol. Starting to set up next week!

Thank you. Will start setting it up next week.

Thank you and that is a wonderful idea. It is something that always brings joy at Christmas and is a tradition that everyone can appreciate. You can purchase on line new from Dept 56 or there is a lot of them for sale on eBay and Facebook. If you are a Facebook person here is a link to a site that you can see a lot of items for sale.(FYI - it best to get it in the original box) facebook.com/groups/717644038315869
