This may be the first of several counting house pieces. The little hand pieces were designed using Affinity Designer then individual pieces were cut with a Cricut machine from card stock. I glued four of each of the hands together to make a sturdy thicker piece which were then painted first with white paint then several coats of yellow paint. The tiny books are made from pieces of wood covered with heavy paper then painted. I used an extra tiny chair leftover from the dripping yellow chairs piece and made this one dripping blue.
It was new and improved, but now this bona fide A-1 expendable counting house seeks new management.
