Earlier this year bought a small packet of vinyl for $3.30 from Daiso with the intention of making tiny vinyl houses. I thought this was probably some time in May. Imagine my astonishment to discover it was in January. January!

I love how in that post past me was determined to execute the plan by the end of that month. Ha!

At some point I made a house shaped template from lightweight card. Who knows when? This year has been weird – my sense of time is very much distorted.

The template has been sitting on the noticeboard above my desk for at least a couple of months, reminding me to set my subconscious to work out a house-construction method.

I rediscovered the vinyl sheets while book-making^^ a couple of weeks ago and decided it was time to get this idea out of my head and into the world! After my brain had done all the heavy lifting over those months, it was fairly straightforward and I’m quite pleased with the results!

Cutting and punching.

I am such a fan of those quilting clips, they’re useful for all sorts of things! Stitched with a heavy weight sewing cotton.

I’m sure there’s a completed version of a house with the clips still attached as a metaphor for … something

Fin! And supplies for more houses!

A set of wee houses – mostly experiments by me.

The wall/s in the not-craft room really do need attention.

^^ a post for another time!
