BookArtz house swap

I'm over half way through making all my little houses for the chunky book swap I'm participating in on BookArtz.

The little house measures 3 inches wide by 7 inches tall. The little chimney is one of my handmade paper beads.

8/10/07 UPDATE:

I finished all 34 of my little houses! I'm proud of the fact that I didn't buy anything to do this swap. It was a self-challenge. I've been spending too much on supplies lately so I decided I wasn't going to participate unless I could do it VERY INEXPENSIVELY. I used cereal and cracker boxes as my substrate, painted pages torn from a book I altered...I used bits and pieces and scraps for everything. I guess you'd say that glue, paint and UTEE for the paper beads I had to pay for but that is from long ago so I wouldn't really count that.
