Well here it is!!!!! What do you think? The platform is kind of smallish but our house is so tiny so we had to make it work. We had 4 but this weekend my MIL got us 2 more for Christmas ( we celebrated this weekend because she lives in TN and we won't see her) so we squeezed them on. IMAGE

REALLY!!! Thanks! We worked hard on it but it really wasn't that bad.
We just used the snow blanket and cut out areas for the path (which was like a moss blanket. We just cut the moss to look like a path and stuck into the cut out areas of the snow. ) The rest of the stuff is just dept 56 village accessories.

Re: christmas village ideas.....UPDATED WITH PICS
Ok...here are ours. I think DH is more obsessed with it. We've been collecting since last year -- and DH is expanding it every day. LOL.
Our is the Christmas in the City set -- and I love the old time NYC theme. Makes me less homesick. 
This one is in honor of our engagement in 2004 in Little Italy. DH bought me the "wedding shop" last year and I think Santa is bringing me Ferrarra's this year since that's where we went after we got engaged. I title this one.. "don't do it, don't say yes!" LOL.

Re: christmas village ideas.....UPDATED WITH PICS
Your villages look great!! Wow, you guys really do it up with the paths and snow and lights and people!!
We don't even have people yet. I have a few pieces and I'm bidding on another two on ebay right now.
One of the pieces I'm bidding on went up to $112.00 on an auction that ended yesterday. There's no WAY I'm bidding that high!

Re: christmas village ideas.....UPDATED WITH PICS
I lOVE ALL of your villages! They totally remind me of my childhood Christmas' at my aunts! Love it & I think I'm going to start a small collection myself. You have inspired me
Where does everyone get their village pieces from? I know they sell them in hallmark stores but anywhere else?

I got mine from Fortunoff at the day after Christmas sale. They were half off that day and even more in the next week. It was the first year they included Department 56 villages (which is what I think most people get) in the sale so I have no idea if they are going to include it agian this year. I HOPE SO!!! I got 4 last year and MIL got us two for Christmas. They have the cutest stuff to go with them.
If you don't want to do Dept. 56 I saw some cute villages at Home Depot.

I also recommend ebay - I've gotten some great new Department 56 items for amazing prices.
