Lighting Glitter Houses

I'm playing with lighting the glitter houses today. There is a tiny LED light inside that casts such a nice, warm glow. The lighted houses are reminding me of the snow village that I would help my mother assemble on the fireplace mantel every Christmas. We would set the houses on top of polyester snow and hang stockings below. Hmm.... I think I need to start designing some stockings to go with these little houses!

  3. Thank you for your kind comments! Patty, right now I have them on a Cr2032 size battery. The battery is about 3/4" diameter and flat, so it would be easy to hide.

  6. Your house is shining like a star! Really nice. I like the touch of snow. Can you make more of this and set a village with cute little houses that glow? :)
