Everything looks marvelous! I love the mailbox!

I loved seeing all your ideas. I made a more primitive version using small cardboard boxes and utilized small limbs off of a tree that died on our property this year. I made a cabin village. I used the petal pieces of pinecone as the roof shingles. I put led tealights in the bottom of each one so they will light up. I used empty tp rolls formed into cones and used the petal pieces of the pine cones to make trees. Painted them green like all the beautiful pine trees we have on our property. I love that I was able to use treasures from our little piece of heaven.

Oh Sherry! You made my heart smile so much with your little villages! When my sons were little they loved two ceramic houses I made while taking ceramics classes. They were mesmerized by them with their little bridges and streams. Now my grandson is just like his Dad. I loved them all so much!

My favorite was the mailbox diorama! Inspired by your original idea, in addition I think it would also be cute to add a few Christmas cards sticking out of their envelops somewhere on the mail box or inside of it to sort of keep the theme of it being a mail box where one would receive said Christmas cards.

As usual you have outdone yourself. The radio looks like an old fashioned Tv. We use to make Diaramas using loaves of uncut bread, Cut out the middle of the loaf leaving an opening oval big enough to fit what you wish in your scene. Mini trees, snowmen, small mirror or a pond, let the loaf dry out before placing chalking for snow sprinkle with glitter or fake snow. Tie a ribbon around and display on a breadboard. You can make a doll house room, gingerbread house, mini kitchen, fairy garden or whatever you want. Leave the loaf plain or paint with a clear coat like Mod Podge. You can bake your own loaf or pick some up at a bakery. Thanks for sharing, Sherry!

Last year, inspired by one of your projects, I made my brother a village using birdhouses. I placed it on a large wood slab from Hobby Lobby. I even had enough space to put in a Christmas tree lot using tiny bottle brush trees. 😊 Every year I display a village I made for my dad, many years ago, using plaster paint-your-own buildings from Michael's. While I don't have space for your fabulous 3 tiered village I'll keep it in mind for my other brother. And the cute wreath village would make a beautiful centerpiece. You come up with the most amazing ideas Sherry. ❤

Well, I've never seen mailbox or radio villages, and I have to say that I'm impressed...except I keep hearing the dogs barking "Jingle Bells" when I look at the radio! I didn't think the book village would work out, but it's really cute. Your fireplace village is way cuter than Balsamic Hill's. And your wreath village is cuter than Martha Stewart's. Your cleverness is amazing!

I was surprised at how cute the second wooden village turned out! ADORABLE. But I would have garbaged it up with froufrou because if there’s no glitz on everything, I can’t sleep at night. AND, I would have tried to make the buildings myself and the project would have languished for years in my craft room. Well done, Sherry!

The first one with the book village, I absolutely knew was going to be my choice, until I saw the second one. Then the mailbox village was shown, and I was so indecisive that I decided to like them all. It was very coincidental that for the village wreath, I was laughing to myself that there was no ice skating rink in the center! Then, sure enough, ice rink in the mailbox! The dupe of the village is incredible. I preferred yours!
