Spooky Town Village Season 2008

Building New Worlds has been going through some changes in the past year and they are BIG, very BIG! On May 31st of 2007 we opened up the Building New Worlds online community through the Ning Networks. At that time we started out with a hand full of devoted members and an idea for something new to take village collecting to the next level. On our one year anniversary this year we were over 200 members strong and as of this writing today we are now at 300 members stronger and growing. Along with the start of a open social network for village collectors we also started the retail sector of Building New Worlds with an online store and a store front. As if this was not enough we have started regrouping our dream somewhat and are in the process of redeveloping our inner workings. Marketing and managing BNW in ways that we hope will make a loud noise within the village collecting community. Now we will talk some about these things we have just sprung on you.
First there is the BWN open social network. Manned by a team from all over the world, this network is designed to be a safe and family friendly place for villagers to join, set up their own personal space in the network and get to know more about village collecting while meeting new friends. Building New Worlds network is safe and monitored through out the day to insure that you have a place to go to that is not full of unwanted postings and spam. We take great pride in the vast amount of information stored there.
Members of Building New Worlds can not only feel free to post threads and blogs but they can share video, pictures and even music. There are groups to join and a live chat set up on the network to talk to fellow members about village collecting and landscaping. There are a wide rang of tutorials, threads and groups devoted to teaching new ways to landscape and how to make interesting new things for the villages. We also offer the latest news and information on lighted villages and are open to collectors of ALL types of villages. No one brand is singled out. You can find the Building New Worlds Community at

This year we opened up the retail sector of Building New Worlds with an online store and joined forces with Finch Family Water Gardens in Albany,Oregon to bring you Lemax Spooky Town 2008. We have the complete line of Lemax Spooky Town offered for the year. Along with that we also offer in the store bases created by Neo Dreams for displaying village pieces. These are one of a kind and each detail is hand crafted from start to finish. Our goal in the coming year is to bring the online store into the next level of guest service by offering more products and expanding not only the Lemax lines we carry but also landscaping supplies as well. We seek to become a one stop shop for all of the needs of village collectors. Our online store is located at the following link

Along with all this I personally have been developing my skills as a villager this past year and have made my work very public for the first time. This year if you live in or around Albany Oregon you can drop into Finch Family Water Garden and see my Spooky Town 2008 village in progress as I work on it right in the nursery. If you do drop in please say hi, ask any questions you might have and feel free to take pictures. I love pictures and that is what I am leaving you will today.
