Thanks for the compliments! =)  Glad you like the mushrooms. =)  I tried
making splotches of color on the red and black mushroom houses but it's
difficult (for me, anyway) to get them to look as round as I want them to
be.  It's hard to do with the curve of the building the way it is, if I had
more 1xn and 2xn plates I think I might be able too.  I'd like to,
eventually, have a mushroom house for just about each color LEGO makes, the
hard part is getting tiles in the sizes and colors I need, I'm always
running out and I'm on a limited budget =\.  Blarg... =)  Thanks again for
the compliments!

Merry Christmas!
