Free Papercraft: Mid-Century Christmas Village.

The popularity of Christmas village decorama hit the big time during the mid-century modern craze of the post-war United States, but largely, their motifs didn't explore the sharp geometricism of their contemporary era, but harkened back to a more quaint holiday aesthetic of the Dickens era.

Thankfully, we midmod holiday fans have a friend in Em from Modern Cottage, who has created three free, downloadable patterns to make your own mid-century Christmas village from a single sheet of paper. Check 'em out here.
