Default House of the rising Sun and Moon

Hello all. I've been really busy lately. Haven't had much time for browsing the forum. These two houses are my latest bark carvings. Hope you enjoy them. They both have new homes, didn't last very long in my gallery.

Just love those bark houses Dennis, especially liked the sun/moon over the rooftops......no wonder they didn't last long, thanks for sharing with us.

Wow Dennis, fantastic little whimsy I love the addition of the sun and moon very creative. Excellent carving on the houses and your tree's are just great.
