Mini Scrap Wood Village

For this project I used a combination of acrylic and chalk paint because I didn’t have the colors that I wanted to use in one or the other so I used both.

Once you get the mini block houses cut choose your paint colors and start painting each house a different color leaving the roof unpainted. Paint the trees green.

Go back and paint the roofs of the mini houses brown.

.
Use black for the windows and doors. I went back and changed the door color to brown.

Then used a detail brush to add white around the windows and doors.

For the door knobs I used Metallic gold and a craft stylus.

Once everything was completely dry, I went back and distressed all the edges on the mini scrap wood village.

Next, I added Mod Podge to seal and protect.

After that came the smoke stacks. I used small carpet tacks, and that’s it for this diy mini scrap wood village. Do you save your scrap wood pieces for little projects like this?
