How to set up a Christmas Village Part II



Tonight, after dance practice, dinner and homework, we finished setting up our Christmas Village.  We made some final adjustments on the 'skyline', then got out all of the accessories to make it really come to life.  People, pets, trees, fences, signs, benches, and even deer all around the city.

The last ( and most fun part) is sprinkling on the snowflakes.  We used large 3 bags this year.  I like the kind that is ground up plastic shavings and a mixture of iridescent glitter.  It looks great reflecting the light.  Ok, the actual last part is vacumming up whatever has fallen on the floor!





 The other thing that I really like about the village is the lights and shadows that reflect all around the room.

    1. They are just the lights that come with the buildings. They are night light bulbs maybe C7?
