I don’t know if you still check comments on this but -WOW! Please make more videos like this. Your work and creativity are amazing but you are also a good teacher, which is very important. Thank you for taking the time to share this incredible project.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked the video. I do hope to get back to making them, my life is just a little crazy at the moment, but hopefully I'll be able to carve some time for it later this year. Thanks for stopping by and leaving such a kind comment, it made me so happy!
I have all 3 sets of houses. I have made them out of paper and cardboard and added some detail. Now I want to get them out again and follow your inspiration.😊
Oh yay! I'm so glad to hear that! For me these dies are now old friends that I have fun with every time - I keep finding new ways to use them :D I hope you'll have just as much fun! ❤️
Thank you for sharing this wonderful creation. I’m so glad I found your Channel and look forward to seeing more projects using the Tim Holtz Village Die Collection.
Thanks so much David, so happy you liked this little house! I've actually been working on a village collection house in a livestream series for the last few weeks. It's definitely longer than the short edited format, but I feel that I can touch on so many more options and answer questions directly. The whole series is on my channel, if you're interested, and this Thursday will be the final video in the series, with some fun details (I do love details 😉)
So many great tips and ideas. I have both these Tim Holtz sets and had no idea that the window frames would match! My first house was an attempt at replicating my daughter's first new house (which I haven't been able to see in person due to Covid). It came out great. Tim's village dies are very adaptable so you can create exactly what you need even if it isn't actually one of the die cuts. I love what you did with this set and look forward to seeing more.
Thanks so much! That sounds like an amazing project! I'm sure your daughter was really touched, and hope you got to see the actual house by now (and more importantly your daughter ❤). I absolutely love these dies, like you said, they're very adaptable and it's so much fun thinking of new ways to use them :)
I love that die set and I really love what you did with it, your shack is fabulous, especially with the added dormer, the windows and the amazing roof!
Thanks so much Anne! I love this die set too, and I may have squealed a bit when I realized the Snowglobe windows fit it 😆 I honestly don't use it enough but I think I might have just convinced myself to get them out more ;)
Thank you so much! I was talking about the butterflies and optional dies in my last livestream. I have a few different die sets that have tiny butterflies included and I use the interchangeably. I think only one of them is still available: the Creative Expressions by Sue Wilson, Window Box and Accessories set has 3 beautiful little butterflies (and is a cool set to boot 😉)
Wow, it is amazing. But I got lost, making copious notes, I’m trying to figure out from your list, exactly what colours/paints you used for specific making (ie wood grain), I’m trying to make a list so I know what to buy. Do you have a more specific list of what items you used exactly for each part. Do you know what I mean? Thanking you in advance, I really really want to make this, I’ve ordered and received the 87 piece die set. Now I want to get making and I have nothing in ways of colouring tools, starting from scratch. Would really appreciate any help. thnx.
Thank you so much Yvonne! Welcome to the Tim Holtz houses club ;) I can give you more specific details of what I used, but please know that you can use anything you already have. If you have some inks or watercolor around they will do a great job too. I happen to love distress inks and use them for a lot of things, but I don't want you to feel like you have to buy what I use to get great results! The textured paper (I used Distress woodgrain paper) does a lot of the work for you in getting a realistic wood texture, so I would start with that. For the coloring I used gathered twigs and brushed corduroy Distress inks, and added a little frayed burlap distress oxide ink. The frayed burlap oxide is brown with a green undertone, and when you add water it really looks like old moldy wood. After the inks dried, I used a little bit of walnut stain distress crayon just on the top of the texture to bring it out. You can also use paint for this step if you don't have crayons. I recently colored some woodgrain paper in this livestream: th-cam.com/video/avjjZueWwiY/w-d-xo.html (you can skip straight to the "Let's talk shingles" chapter about 1 hour in). This video part of a series of building a Tim Holtz house live, it's longer, but this means I can go into more details than in an edited video. I used the woodgrain for the roof, not the walls, in this case, but the coloring technique is the same. Well, this came out pretty long... I hope it helps!
@@PeculiarisArt Thank you very much, you are very helpful. I am starting from scratch here, and I am watching more of your videos. I really like how you have added chapters on the newer ones, very thoughtful. Thnx again.

Naama it is beautiful, great meticulous work on the walls. I adore it!
Thank you so much Sue! I guess it wasn't much of a surprise after seeing me doing floor-making-meditation 🤣

Its sooo Beautiful and I learn a lot of your video’s. Thank You
Thanks so much Astrid! I'm so happy you liked it and that my video was helpful 😊❤
Thank you so much for showing your techniques! I found it very helpful to see how the original die cuts can be customized for a unique look.
My pleasure! I love playing around with them, and so happy it was useful! Thanks so much for your kind words ❤
Thanks for such a creative video! Your descriptions of what you did are very helpful. It is great to see and hear your process.
Thank you so much! I'm always happy if my videos are helpful in any way so this really means a lot! 🙏❤
Very fabulous house. So many ideas! I’m just starting to put my houses together. Your video is inspirational. Thx!
Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed the video, I'm sure you'll have tons of fun with these dies! ❤

This is amazing! And soo adorable! 😍 🖤
Thanks so much! Kinda makes you wanna live in a bubble doesn't it? 😜🖤
Absolutely love this ❤. What did you use on the room?
I enjoyed your tutorial! Did you use a specific die or machine to cut your butterflies?
