 Our American Ink team's Christmas village held all the entries for the Design-a-House Contest. You could tell there were countless hours put into the construction and details on each and every house. They were amazing! Everyone received a prize for their efforts. Prizes included a few items from the Occasions Mini Catalog, numerous hostess sets, a punch, fabric, and smooch spritz. |

| 1st place: Pearl's musical house. It had a red flameless tealight inside that lit up the windows. Pearl made the fence too. |
 |
| My neighbor, Beth, created a church for the village. My son helped make pews and an altar inside, and added two flameless tealights. He also created the angel (in his own likeness, I might add), as well as a snowman for outside and a Santa Claus. |
