You're right, it's great to have this at home. I have made recordings of a Christmas village in a garden center 🙄😊 ruclips.net/video/mphpyvywxJk/видео.html
Très joli village de Noël, beau travail.
Amazing village. This video has gotten my three year old and I excited to work on our first village. He is in awe! Thank you

+Martin Treasure Hi Martin! I would like to create a stand just like this one to display my Christmas Village this year and I was wondering if you can share with me the height, width, and length of the two tiers utilized on this video. Also, do you happen to know a website that sales "MY VILLAGE" mountain bases, that will also deliver to the U.S? Thank you in advance for your time... :)
+Lymari Lopez Hi Lymari,
Thanks for your email. The stand was a large 10ft-long dining room table and I extended the width to around 6ft, as I wanted to leave plenty of room for pathways and the green park at the front. If you don't make the tiers wide enough, it is difficult to create the detailed scenes with the people and other miniatures, which to me is the best bit! The tallest tier at the back was made with wooden boxes that were around 14 inches high, with the mountains adding extra height on top. I hope that this helps.
Re. the My Village mountains, although they look really good, they are ridiculously expensive (GBP45 each) and incredibly flismy as the plastic is so thin, although they are very good shapes and really useful realistic elements, to add height. Therefore, I'm not sure how well they would travel to the US. You might be better off making your own using chicken wire and modroc plaster. However, check out the resources page on my website: christmas-village-displays.com/ . Webbs Garden Centre, Longacres, Millrace or Swallows might be worth contacting. If they can't help, they might be able to recommend someone.
If you want to try something on a slightly smaller scale, I have some nice printable cardboard houses on the website: christmas-village-displays.com/christmas_printable_houses.html .
This is a longer, narrower display that I did (top link in the description above): ruclips.net/video/_uHreZVXf7M/видео.html
Please let me know how you get on!
+Martin Treasure Thanks for the information Martin... I wish I could make my own as you suggested, but I am definitely not talented that way :)
+Lymari Lopez Hi again, trying taping some cardboard boxes together (different heights) for the platforms and then draping plaster bandage over them. Paint the sides grey and sprinkle a bit of green powder on the paint, and the flat parts white for snow. I'm sure it would look pretty good, but most of it would be covered by the buildings and trees anyway. I've made things like that before and they are really much easier than you'd think. If you email me through my website, I'll send you some photos and instructions if you like: www.christmas-village-displays.com/ (contact us at bottom).
+Martin Treasure You are the BEST!! Thank you kindly for your help... :)

truly perfect 😊😊 and awesome 😉😉😉
Kunal Anvade I just put up my village, I ‘d love for you to check it out :)
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️💚💛💙
This is incredible! What do you use for the snow covering the ground?
Martin I love your work. It's always nice. The brick road at 850. Was that crafted or embellished by you? It's stained white like icy snow.
Thanks for sharing. See Linsterville
What is the actual size of this display (length x width)?
Approx 3m x 1.5. Hope you liked it!
@Martin Treasure . I loved it!! Congratulations on your beautiful talent. Thank you for replying. Greetings from Colombia 🇨🇴
Why would you quit putting the village up
WOW! THIS IS AWESOME! IS THE ICESKATING PART SOMETHING SPECIAL YOU HAD TO PURCHASE? EXPENSIVE?
Thanks. The Ice Skating Pond is from Lemax and is around £70 online. Well worth considering, as it makes such an impact with its numerous moving skaters on magnets. More info here: www.christmas-village-displays.com/christmas_moving_pieces.html
There was an interesting song that was part of this video in 2013-2014 what was it? I found it to be so perfect for this video. Was it deleted due to copyright?
Buetiful 😘
Very nice!!! Where do you buy these houses and figurines if you don't mind me asking?
Check out my website - christmas-village-displays.com for more info!!!
Where did you get the large buildings?
Martin, what happened to the original music to this video? It was so beautiful.
You have a good memory, lol. Copyright issues, can't even remember what it was, lol. Thanks for the comment!!!
😱😶💝💞💞
Where or how and with what did you make the background?
Im having a difficult time finding a village background. Need one 70 inches long. Any suggestions?
This display probably cost between $3000-$5000.US
Great video, do you have a link to the music at all?
+Joe Hylands It's background music from the RUclips library, called '89Ford Christmas'. Hope that helps.
gorgeous how did you get or make the miniature flowers
Thanks for your comment! Some of the flowers were made using Fimo, others were made from old plastic fish tank plants and some were purchased from a Dolls House shop. More info here: www.christmas-village-displays.com/
Martin Treasure thanksso much for that I would never have thought of it I am good at copying but not very inventive lol..
Martin Treasure do you know what scale the vehicles are in depart 56 i am collecting from Australia and we dont have villages over here so everything i buy has to come from USA..which is a major pain as everything has to run through a stepdown transformer..I thought i could save a heap of money and just use toy cars.
geri G From what I have seen, the scale of Department 56 and Lemax buildings does vary a little. Most people tend to use model figurines and cars that are slightly larger than the scale of the houses, so that the details stand out more. It is funny, but when they are exactly the same scale as the houses, they often don't look quite right! I think that toy cars would be the perfect solution and hopefully save you some money. Are you setting up a Christmas village in January then?! :) Please send me some photos of your finished creation!
Do you sell these and how much is the price?
No, I don't sell them, but if you look at my website: www.christmas-village-displays.com/ - you will find out how to make lots of the accessories. The resources page contains a comprehensive list of stockists for Lemax and Department 56 buildings, many of which will soon be having a sale! Hope that is helpful.
Martin, I posted a video last week. Check out Linsterville when you feel inclined.
The Nominees for the 2020 Village Video Hall of Fame have been selected, and you made the list. Check out the "Hall of Fame" page at www.TheVillageCollector.com and tell everyone to vote for you, every day between Friday, December 18, 2020 and Monday, January 18, 2021. Congratulations!
how to do this?
+benedict santiago You need and lot of time and patience, and it is good to plan ahead. Check out my website for ideas: www.christmas-village-displays.com/
Uu
Magnificent effort martin...I have found the challenge now is more in making the video and editing it than building the village itself....
It's wonderful to see how this tradition has caught on around the world...
My contribution is at:
vimeo.com/82163584
It is the best quality and crisp video and sound. You may need to wait a minute for it to buffer down, but it gives a beautiful playback. The soundtrack is spectacular so hook your device up the best sound you can get your hands on.
The RUclips link is very good, but not as crisp as the Vimeo one. Use it if you have a slower connection.
