These little 2 by 2 inch houses I have been making from scraps from my art table. In my clean up process I did not have the heart to toss some of the smaller scraps so I ended up making these. [They are in a slide folder so if you enlarge it and look the lines are the plastic sleeve they are in.] They take no time at all and seem to satisfy the creative urge I have had but know I can't start anything big right now. After making them I realized I definitely have house stuff on the brain...

Thanks Elizabeth for your visit and you comments! I hate all these computer glitches! Hopefully, it will work itself out!

I'm totally in love with these colorful houses. To think they came from scraps is even better.
Since we both seem to be cleaning and organizing (what IS it about this time of year?), I'm going to have to make some of these beauties. I, too, have a fondness for houses.
I use my slide folders for smaller paper art, too. I've even stuffed them with found objects and sewn around the individual tops. Love that you use them, too.
What a beautiful way to use your scraps. I can't toss anything away either.
Love your tiny houses!! Looks like a great little art quilt!
These would make great fabric. If you could print them out you could use them in an art quilt. Then you could even create bigger or different ones in addition to them.
I just LOVE THESE!!!!!! They are adorable.
So, are you still thinking about whether you should move or not?
Been dreaming about anything to do with transportation, trains, planes, driving somewhere? Just curious, you know me. :)Bea

Elizabeth--this is my kind of art--I LOVE it--it really inspires me--thank you for sharing!!
Wonderful! So colorful and vibrant. I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has trouble getting rid of even the smallest scraps.
This is my kind of neighborhood!!!!
These are sort of like little quilt blocks. You could collage them together on a large canvas to build a quilt-like artwork. Hmmmm, gives me ideas!
Elizabeth,
I love these little houses.
These aren't digital are they?
Love the colors and patterns.
House and Home are definitely on your mind, and these are colorful and so charming, Elizabeth! Hugs, Terri xoxo
they caught my eye!
so wonderful
little works of art
Just love these little houses of yours! Over at Everyday Creative the theme has been "Home" and until now I couldn't get inspired. You have inspired me to end February with creating tiny houses! Great idea!
Funny I do the same with fabric scraps. Love your little houses. I shall have to get mine out to show you sometime. Great minds.... and all that stuff. Sharon
wow - great use for scraps?! they are fabulous. I've done inchie swaps, how about one for this size??
what a artistic way to be creative...i'm thinking of borrowing your idea for a dreamboard of my house being renovated!
So lovely! What a great way to use the little scraps. You are such an inspiration to me.
Much Love!
Totally sweet! I love to use the scraps on my work table too.
How are you? I miss conversing with you...
I love this idea. I might just borrow it and make small houses of my own. Thanks for the inspiration.
