A GingerBread House
Painted bushes - window and door - stick on " diamonds " as lights and butterfly and flower stickers!!!
Typical Bread Box
I added some small moldings to use as planter and architectural detail over the front door
some tiny planters were cut out of spare " trim " wood I had laying around -
I painted in some foliage
and used a stencil to create the " iron work " between the windows
This is the "drop door " for the bread box - I turned it into the front lawn of the house

What a cute idea!! Sturdy enough it can really be played with! Fire House or Barn for boys; will be keeping my eye out for a bread box next time I go garage selling. Thanks for sharing.

Plain bread boxes like plain garage doors are boring. But you have certainly kicked it up many notches with your very active imagination. It's so special! I'm sure you receive many complements for it. Please let us see more of your artistry!
