    Love these houses! Great job! I’ve been looking for an idea for displaying my Lori Mitchell figures. I collect the Halloween trick or treaters and they need something simple like this ! I just realized this is from last year I hope I can find something similar! Can’t wait to look! I make paper tags of my embroidery floss. I use a large paper punch, a smaller round punch to thread the floss through and the smallest hole punch that fits on binder rings. It keeps my floss looking festive and fun and organized.. Great tutorial!????????????????ReplyCancel
