This was a much bigger project that I thought it would be. Started last year. Ran out of time. Finished it today. I used Leo’s video on the Dreaming Tree YouTube channel to follow along. I accidentally did the roof the wrong way. I had to make modifications along the way because of it. Oops. The tower would be on the left. Mine is on the right. I used 80 pound cardstock and found colours I wanted at Michael’s. Bought a big bottle of tacky glue. Got the Nightmare Before Christmas figures from an advent calendar last year. Used white translucent paper in the windows. Used two of the string lights in orange colour. One set for the tower and fed the other one into the rest of the house (there’s a back flap to open). I’ll add more photos in the comment section if I can.

The back. I have the two battery compartments where I can turn the lights off in the access area.
