Christmas Houses

On a recent trip to the local Wicker Emporium I happened on these cute little houses! At $1.80 each, I had to buy all six! "What are you going to do with these?" asked the clerk. How much time did she have? So far I have been told by my DS6 that they would make great houses for his Lego guys(not likely), I have thought I should fill them with tiny treats for a 'welcome to the neighborhood' gift, paint them black for "Booing"use them for Christmas gifts, and keep one or two back for my mantel. Any ideas?

Disney's Prep and Landing has a great printable to help the kids get ready for Santa! It's actually on Family Fun's website. I reinforced the covers by gluing them to cardstock insted of just each other. And bound them with jute twine. I would love to have used the baker's twine from Bake It Pretty but I could see alot of procrastination in my future if I waited until I ordered it, you know how it goes-besides, the boys won't care!
