dutch dickens christmas village 2008

[MsHolidayLights]

Gorgeous! And yet, the village you created for 2009 was twice as good. How is that even possible? You have talent and creativity.  I love the charm. I'm afraid you just inspired me to go buy more trees of different varieties. That other video really convinced me.

You have a wonderful knack of handling the small shrubs and mossy things growing among the buildings. Well done!

Thank you for posting and I look forward to the 2010 display.

This is very nice. The detail is amazing and it is definitely one of the best I've seen on YouTube.

Thank you very much. Always hard to film steady. Mum did a good job filming.

Hi Moon,

Your Sydney pal here - a masterpiece, as usual. I love your backdrop and the way you have blended it all together. All necomers can take lessons from a master at work !

Inspiring for my own Xmas Forest. Thanks, Robert

This is beautifully done! I love your sense of realism with the placement of trees, reminds me of myself. I would like to know what your mountain backdrop is and where did you get it? Thanks.

[Dutchmoniquepol]

Thanks. Backdrop I painted myself after 5 lessons of 2 hours Bob Ross this summer.

VERY nicely done! The houses are beautiful and ones that I've never seen before. Did you make them?  Carol

[Dutchmoniquepol]

No I did not make any of them myself. There are two Lemax houses, The Todor post office and the Shakespeare Inn. All the others are department 56. Many bought on eBay.

[Stoltenbergchristmas]

I see. You've displayed them beautifully. "stoltenbergchristmas" is my village. I have just recently gotten into this "hobby". It's quite magical and I love it. I learned a lot this year looking at the other villages. I will be doing some serious thinking about changes, additions, etc. You've inspired me also. Carol
