The first house is the flower house. The base of this and all the houses is fabric/paper made with muslin and tissue paper. Techniques include lace dying, beading, and collage. The second center house is trimmed with pearl buttons, and trims. The "gingerbread" is cut from a doily like napkin.
I call this the Heart house. This house is embellished with lace, fabric beads, dimensional paints, beads and sequins. The backs of each house are also embellished. The birds are purchased and the sticks are from my back yard. This class is open for lots of possiblities as far as the shape of the pages and the materials that can be used. For more information on the classes, go to the RibbonSmyth site. Feel free to browse but I warn you--don't expect to come away without buying something!

Just totally exquisite, Stephanie! You are all in for a magical experience together....*sigh*...wish my calendar wasn't already filled up for those dates....
Stephanie, just love, love, love the project! We are going to have so much fun! Great to see how that napkin creates "gingerbread"!
I am in total awe of these... I wish I lived close enough to you to be able to take this class on the houses.... totally awesome!
Your dolls are incrediable, but I love these house shapes and those purses ... What a beauiful blog.
