Ornament #26 – Dog House {30 Days of Christmas Ornaments}

30 Days Christmas OrnamentsOrnament #26 – Dog House019e036df1a6a55f1767bf52862110be4f777cea61

The first, and only, dog house we owned was for our first dog Sugar.  It was used for precisely two weeks.  Sugar would stay outside while we were at work, but since she was a barky girl, we had to keep her indoors.  And that was our only experience with a dog house.

I thought it was time to add one more dog ornament to the collection.  I’m going to be decorating a tree for the dogs this year and I felt it needed a dog house.  So here it is.01360fb0d7f4c792ef097037801b9fb1ae10a819fc

I used my Silhouette Cameo and a purchased cut file to cut out the house from white cardstock.  Before I assembled it I colored the structure with Ranger Distress Ink.  I made one with red walls and another with beige/brown walls.  I then assembled the walls, glued on the window frames, the roof, the dog bone decoration and the snowflake.

Here are some closeups.

Is this your way of telling us we’re getting dog houses? If we are, can we keep them inside?  I’m too old to become a outdoor dog.
