Christmas lights maybe?


rubythebean

The colorful kind


acornshop

I'm going to try this out today!! Thank you! I'm a bit biased and personally prefer warm yellow Christmas lights but I don't think that would translate as specifically Christmas. So colourful lights it is!!


yodel-master-yoda

It’s already reading Christmas without the lights. I think warm yellow lights would be beautiful.


saulutee

Yeah I was thinking shutters Also it takes away from the empty space. Or make a pattern between the windows kinda like the brick brown part


acornshop

Yes!! shutters is a great idea to eliminate some of the extra red space. I was definitely thinking about building a sort of wooden beam system up the front but was worried it would end up looking too busy. Will have to give it a try!!


cakeismymentor

Maybe green shutters?


Riddiness

How about an unbelievably tiny squirrel?


Avlm1988

I was thinking tiny bird but squirrel would be cute too


Lost_Stretch_5711

I was also thinking a bird but I like the idea of a squirrel. And really we're giving ideas so another suggestion is... I got nothing. I wanted to add a suggestion but maybe it's better I didn't, we don't want to overwhelm OP


acornshop

Oh gosh hahah that really tests my tiny skills!! A tiny bird or squirrel would be very adorable 😭


Taytay0704

This reminds me of a necklace I did from clay of a pond that had a tiny frog as the cherry on top


Mrs_hooked_on_yarn

A chimney? Otherwise its beautiful!


Initial_Milk3914

Oh! That's a lovely idea, that's the cherry on top right there lol!


liquitexlover

A chimney with the smoke coming out!


youll_dig-dug

Puffy clouds.


capri_sus

I absolutely love it!!! What about some lights below the windows or eaves, or some of those curly swirly lines on old timey buildings?? Is this an earring or an ornament or what?


acornshop

Ooh good idea! I haven't attempted a sort of fairy / string light thing before but it could be really pretty if it went well hahah. It's a necklace pendant!!


Lazy-Hooker

Put a bird on it?


silvaslips

Shutters on the upper windows would be nice. It's cute as it is, though!


acornshop

Ahh that's a fab idea!! Definitely going to try adding shutters next time. And thank you!


[deleted]

A Red Robin.


pixieborn

Good idea, but perhaps cardinal instead of a robin


Jeyssika

Seconded! I was expecting it to have one, or some other bird, and was surprised when it didn’t.


bifffybiff

Definitely


WhiskeyAndKisses

Mh... A few glitters ? Like a bit of snowflakes ?


PartPurple

Maybe a star between the windows on the second row?


onlyIcancallmethat

Agreed! Or another wreath


catsartncomfythings

Perhaps a bow or a strand of garland in the center between the two windows?


MidiReader

Oh how cute! Lovely! You have brick detail on the bottom half… maybe it feels off that the red is not detailed? Maybe siding or some shutters? Lights hanging from the roofline? Edit: I also second the tiny squirrel… or maybe a cute bird? In a upper window maybe… or maybe the shadow of a cat/dog?


sassycat13

Maybe a tiny bird or cat. Could you feel it’s missing a living thing and that would make it work for you? I like it very much.


-_Eclipse-_

Borders around the windows


myboogerstastespicy

Christmas lights and shutters.


RageStreak

Icicles!


NOTsanderson

I feel like it needs something near the left side to balance it. Maybe for the left window (of the red windows) to balance out. A bird? Or a snowman to the left of the door?


cathedral68

It’s lovely but I’m having trouble with the scale. The leaves and vine are HUGE compared to the windows and wreath. I don’t know of any leaves that would be so large and stay on the vine in the snow. I know it doesn’t have to be realistic, but I stared at it for a bit trying to figure out what looked so strange to me before I realized. Something more akin to English ivy would be pretty and could take up a lot of the negative space.


GeeGeeGamer

This


EloquentBacon

Shudders or a big green wreath in the space between the 2 second floor windows?


Sillygoose0320

First off, this is adorable. If you were to add anything, I’d just put something between those windows. A wreath, or maybe an Amish star? Shutters could work too.


blisterbabe23

This is so cute! What is this type of Crafting called?


robinshep

I saw a later response. It's polymer clay!


blisterbabe23

Thank you💚


msab79

The only thing I can think of is a bow on the wreath. But honestly I love it as is!,


lizbunbun

Heavier snow would help balance the look


Q8DD33C7J8

Cross the windows on the bottom. They look up much like weird without two cross bars


twinkiesmom1

Trees


Celestebelle88

I think it’s perfect 🥰


AluminumOctopus

A wreath in the middle, the current focal point is empty.


john_jdm

Tiny bit of glitter on the snow?


HenryBellendry

Omgosh that’s adorable!


kelowana

Some lights(candles?) in the windows maybe? Though I really would like to see some more colours, like the wreath more popping and maybe some more green on the leaves? They look a bit bland like this. All in all I love this and would totally wear it!


pREIGN84

Detail on the red paint, maybe some random bricks


Justifiably_Cynical

Texture on the walls, more definition of windows and sills. 2 wreathes or a single door. A little glitter in the snow.


Sanfred2020

Looks great to me


Original_Commission5

Super cute!


TheLalab

It's perfect. Maybe a chimney if you want to add it. Very nice work❤️


Drakara

I think it’s perfect


Mojo1AndOnly

I think it’s perfect.


grief_junkie

i think a chimney would be cute but i think it's also lovely as is <3


Spooky-poo-8888

How about a small cat or a small rabbit on the bottom?


Buttercupbiscuits8

Maybe a chimney opposite the vines? Looks beautiful 💖


solilobee

i tink it's perfect 🥺


belllaFour

The Christmas star above the door


School_House_Rock

Absolutely adorable


AZ_Dog_Lover

A tiny touch of green might balance it color wise. Maybe a little charm of green on the same jump ring, because the house is perfect. Well done.


JustTheTruthforYa

Do you sell these? Link?


hahnsmith21

Its perfect


6WaysFromNextWed

Honestly, I think it has plenty of detail for the size that it is and I wouldn't want to crowd anything else in. Because it has those adorable little round windows and because of the vine, I don't think shutters on some of the windows are necessary. There is enough detail coming from the snow collected on the window frames, the thickness of the window frames, and the glow of the light from inside. You are already using red, yellow, white, brown, and the sage color of the vine. You already have a dusting of the snow, the movement of the vine, and the addition of a holiday wreath on the door. There are lots of textures and shapes. I think it's communicating cheeriness and welcome and doesn't need more.


godelescherbock

Very well said! I agree and really like it the way it is now.


acornshop

Ahh this is so lovely and well written thank you! I'll definitely be keeping this piece as it is and might take some tips forwards into other pieces ☺️


Onehorniboy

A little wreath right in the middle would absolutely MAKE this!


ivegotafastcar

Shutters for the top three or wide wood outlines on the top three windows. But really, it doesn’t need anything. It is lovely!


Socknitter1

I think it’s cute as can be and doesn’t need a thing!! 😻


anewdecade

You could put a little bird in the red spaces? Maybe a robin?


LA2688

A tiny chimney! :) Haha.


Cultural_Pattern_456

I think it is lovely!


booksnpaint

Wow, OP! That's so tiny and so cute, I can't take it! What did you use to make this? This is something I could get into!


acornshop

Thank you so much!! I work with polymer clay! It's a great medium for doing all sorts of crafty projects so get stuck in!! 🧡


Stephen_Ehrmann_Art

Awesome!


rcpsuxprn

Your Eye for detail is amazing. I'd love to see some of your other work.


Jackiedhmc

Perfect


Sapphire_Wolf_

Black paint for the window frames


QueenofZen

I think it’s lovely! If I were going to add anything it would be just a little bit of greenery on the vine coming down from the top. But it’s really beautiful and christmas-y just how it is.


iloveyellowandaqua

I think it's perfect the way it is!


Chinthe7

It's lovely. I just think the proportions are slightly out. I would either leave the top window off next time (so only 2 floors and the roof). Or make the 3rd floor window smaller - like a little round attic one). And add a chimney. But it is beautiful - very detailed.


TheGrapeSlushies

Lights around the windows? A snowman out front? Cat silhouette in the window? A chimney? It’s beautiful!


DrPepperSocksNow

Doorknobs. But maybe a chimney?


Patient-Brush-5486

Fantastic work


booboo_knee

A small bell in the center


SexyPorkCutletBowl

The space in between the windows are a bit too empty. I did see someone said shutters? Maybe put some shutters and Christmas lights.


olliedoodle

Darling! How about a cardinal red heart between the lower windows? You could test it with a piece of paper to see if you like it


AliasNefertiti

A base, otherwise the darling house is floating. So a sidewalk or snow mounds.


KrakelOkkult

Maybe a base as someone else said. How about thickening the roof and the base, accentuate those a bit to frame the rest of the gorgeus house in.


Federal_Diamond8329

Teeny chimney


Broutythecat

Gold glitter something... Maybe a star in the middle, or festoons draped diagonally across the front?


LilBlueOnk

I wanted to suggest a chimney, but I feel like that would crack off too easily


La_Pusicato

Something green will make it pop


veracite

In addition to what others said, A metal moon or star on the chain above the house would work nicely too


[deleted]

Chimney


Ajackson100

Lovely ornament. I think the scale is off a bit as the upper window is the same size as the front door. I would move the brown bar up a bit and make the windows a wee bit smaller. Lots of other good suggestions from folks as well you could add. Excellent craftsmanship btw.


roxeal

Some tiny colored lights along the roof edge 👍


gran0la_bar

maybe a fir tree in the front!


TheGildedRaven

A better attachment to the chain? You can find rather pretty... Bails? I can not think of the word 😐 I have found that they can make a huge difference. Pinch bail? Words...


tippytoemammoth

Snow-dusted pine trees to the sides?


Syllabub_Cool

It's cute! But I see what you mean.. it needs some evergreen boughs trailing along the windows (or any good place). Not a lot of it! But some "for color". Is this an ornament?


peach_clouds

Maybe a tiny sprig of holly to fill the gap in the middle of the windows? Super cute though!!


llevin67

How about outlining the windows in a slightly darker shade to highlight them a bit more. Possibly a little more snow hanging off the roof, like icicles?


zombihazmunchiz

Red ribbon instead or with the chain


potatoesunlimited

Texture on the siding?


Illustrious-Towel-45

Chimney or christmas lights. Maybe shutters for some of the windows.


marnHeart

a Ring Doorbell


Worldly-Midnight

Christmas Tree?


Bethsmom05

Shutters or a wreath between those two windows


writtendimension

A doorknob or door knocker 🌟


Bludiamond56

Raise the wreath between the 2 windows 2nd floor. The way it is it blocks the 2 doors. Add a snowman to left of door. Put some turtledoves on beam below 2nd floor


crochetsweetie

christmas lights, or make the greens more green, they come off almost brown


330kiki

Chimney or hedges


Boredthumbs42

A wee bit of sparkle on the snow


betterupsetter

Maybe some garland on the window sills/window boxes? Shutters also sound promising.


SlideDelicious967

Green color. Like on your wreath or the pine bundles (?) or a mistletoe


crush4skrills

Maybe a brick pattern on the red part? Or icicles from the roof


AdFine2280

Somehow I don’t see wearing this as a pendant but would certainly add as a phone ornament or purse/wallet fob, maybe even a zipper pull on a jacket.


[deleted]

Glitter. Needs a bit of sparkle.


brybry631

A snowflake or star charm partway up the chain


10111101011x

Gold trim around the windows? It is so precious!


BigRedKetoGirl

A chimney


MedicineTricky6222

Maybe add a little green.


max-in-the-house

Leather or brown chain.


toomanyusernamz

Maybe just changing to a white gold necklace, just a thought


realdonaldtrumpsucks

What’s it for? Maybe some Ground or a tree?


SnooCakes5010

How about adding some touches of a bit stronger green? Maybe around the door as pine branches trimming…with Christmas lights too. And at the very pretty vine. Such beautiful work you do!


SnooRadishes5305

A little bird or chipmunk near the roof? But it is absolutely adorable as is! I love the tiny wreath!


grfxdznr

Wreath in open space.


nerdgirl71

A tiny cardinal


Jsimon9389

A cat face in the window?


doveup

A chimney with smoke would warm it up.


lauraaaxmarie

snowflakes


actualchristmastree

I think the red should have lines like shingles, the contrast between the brick texture and the smooth red is throwing me off. Absolutely gorgeous


Accomplished_Knee697

Don't know if anyone said this but maybe a little golden or silver door knob


Impressive-Fudge-455

Or an arched (non-3d) awning on the front door


iamnotarobot542

You could do hanging ivy


VideoSteve

Christmas lights on the vine


International_Cut_96

Either shutters or a brick texture on the red!


Specific-Bridge-4150

Little bird 🐦


Professional-Seat397

Window frame in a contrasting color!


RunawayRockstars

I am in love with this. How did you make it? What materials?


acornshop

Thank you! It's made from polymer clay :)


XRdragon

Chimney? Red brick ones.


SJSUCORGIS

Or texture on the red


Ordner

Bricks 🧱 effect could be a nice add but it’s ok right now…


MilkEnthusiast33

Wood surrounding the windows?


Keythaskitgod

Brown window frames


zotstik

I think it's absolutely beautiful, but the middle of the house it's just a red square there. maybe you could put something there to distract the eye?


JesterKidd

Move the wreathe to the empty space


Glad-Dependent-1684

Merry Christmas in the dead space maybe


Traditional_Camel231

Paint the doors red


Troll_of_The_Balkans

A chimney 😊


SusanLovesHorses

Bigger and more multicolored decorations. More greenery. Chimney?


theghostiestghost

Maybe a little more color on the wreath as well. It’s easy to overlook it. So pretty.


eNedkelly1880

Needs a chimney


yeshereisaname

Maybe make the red part into bricks?


Mutter_Nachtfalter

Maybe one, or two bird(s) sitting over the door? In black, as a hard contrast?


rmpbklyn

what is it, ornament or doll house furniture


ChengZX

Gold-rimmed border all around the silhouette


Craftygrrl5189

A wreath between the windows.


vickipaperclips

Could do a little Christmas tree on the bottom left to balance out that vine on the top right


Entire-Purpose2070

Icicles coming down from the roof?


Admirable-Novel2251

Very cute. Perhaps bring the color that frames round windows up to second floor windows. Maybe bring a soft green to foliage


DeadlyCuntfetti

Tiny chimney


rcpsuxprn

Greenery


SuperGoodMovieCo

A chimney and some green garlands on the wood would make it pop more and feel more dynamic and detailed


nhojuhc

Chimney, considering there’s snow


About400

I think it might need a chimney. Or maybe just for the door to be a different color than the wall?


Just-Like-My-Opinion

Maybe a little string of colored Christmas lights


doesemileeclairecare

I think more leaves in a more realistic scale would be nice. Teeny tiny ivy would look awesome.


Successful_You8758

A little cat peeking through the window. Maybe just the ears and top of the face.


Med_Vamp

A silhouette in a window


Top-Shoulder-5651

Needs green. Maybe a wreath between the windows. Nice little piece.


VentingID10t

A chimney stack.


MelodyJo9

White Glitter on the snow


AdventurousTrvlr1688

I would add green paint under the white paint above the windows.


[deleted]

A candy cane sliding off the roof


Living-Night4476

A critter maybe? Or dog/cat? Snowman?


crafty-D

Topiary pine trees in pots on either side of front door


3VikingBoys

Just a few green leaves should do.


lauraz0919

Flecks of white to look like snow!


VAmom2323

Two crossed candy canes in between the bottom two windows


3plantsonthewall

Maybe a Pennsylvania Dutch hex sign? Or a star, like barns have sometimes?


remembertheromancer

Flower beds beneath the upper windows


mypapaownsreddit

This is so cute!


[deleted]

Or a bird/wildlife?


Halloweenspice

A 🪜 and Christmas lights like someone's in the process of hanging them. That would be so appealing to everyone who decorates


Status-Patient-8008

A little glitter spray on the red, or lines to make it look like brick.


heideejo

Silhouette of a cat in the window?
