I absolutely spent an entirely too large chunk of my last day of vacation trying to make sense of the last five years of Target's Hyde and Eek Mini Mantle wooden village.
If there's an obvious checklist out there already, DO NOT FUCKING TELL ME. I will dissolve into a puddle on the floor here and now and sob/rage incoherently if you do.
About halfway through, when I realized that trying to figure this shit out was going to take the last of my sanity, I debated giving up... but by that point I'd realized I wanted the finished result and I could either power through or trust that someone else was just as insane, in the same way, as I am.
Considering I'm still managing to confuse friends and family by just *existing*, I decided it was best not to wait on someone else to share my delusional wants.
SO. Uh. I did the thing. And I might share it around here sometime soon, because we are absolutely going to discuss the line because now I have PICTURES so you can follow along. You're welcome in advance.
