Take care of yourself. I always get excited when it gets time to do the village. Little chunks of time is how I have to roll this year.

[@TheasChristmasVillages]

Best way to work at it. When I do a marathon I end up paying for it!

[@sherrisurles1155]

You inspire me ladybug, I’m learning and watching. You are so artistic.

[@TheasChristmasVillages]

Thanks so much 😊

[@debbikelley2357]

Good to see you again this year Thea. Glad you are better. I never would have thought to use a wire brush on my mountains. Great idea. Thanks. Can't wait for it all to come together. You are so inspiring.

Will you make it for us if we order

[@TheasChristmasVillages]

No, sorry, shipping would be impossible.

[@sherrisurles1155]

Thea when you made the little ridges in the styrofoam for the snow cap areas, what tool did you use? I’m at that point now. Not sure is it was a hot tool or what. Thanks in advance 😊

[@TheasChristmasVillages]

I used a simple box cutter. Just don't
too cut too deep! Good luck... send me a pic?

[@sherrisurles1155]

@@TheasChristmasVillages Thanks gurl, I already made one mistake, but live & learn. I went back to your earlier video &
saw you were using the box cutter. So I
went to it on the front porch. The error was I made on of those ditches in a area
where snow would not settle, but any way
maybe I can fill it with sparkle lol😂I’m doing larger panels so only doing two.
Finished with the little snow cap troughs on one, but need to do the 2nd. Did you
texturize the boulders with the only the
wire brush? Will send a pic if they turn
out half decent 😂

[@TheasChristmasVillages]

@@sherrisurles1155 yes, I only roughen up there will be no snow. I leave the snow caps smooth. the wonderful thing is you can't really make mistakes. there are always ways to work around the boo-boos. only you will know they are there! 😅
