    Wow, those are so cool! Gee, I wonder if there's even a single Lego in this house anymore. Maybe hidden under a dresser or something. ;)

    Mum

    P.S. Yeah, I'm home now. I'll call you back later. :)

    The house is my favourite - the lights remind me of boiled sweets! I love Lego. I was always envious as a child, of a friend who had shelves full of it. One day, I hope to own my very own plastic bricks :)
    P.S. Your mum is so lovely!

    Very cool! And since today I feel like keeping my children by my side forever and ever, this will help keep us occupied while we're hermiting.

    I understand. Just think of the pile of things you can build over the next decade or six.

    This LEGO DIY is about 50 times easier and quicker: http://beinggeekchic.com/post/37858429365/dollar-store-ornament-lego-brilliant-diy

    Would be great to put these one on the trees with the others.

    LEGO is A-Mase-Zing! Not so much when you step on it in the middle of the night... but every time other than that it's A-Mase-Zing!

    This is awesome! I wanted to find something my son could make to give to my husband as a gift. One of these would be perfect!
