Winter Village: Butcher Stand

[MaineBrickFan]

Happy Holidays, EB! My kids and I are happy to present our market-themed entry this year: a butcher's shop, for all those looking to pick up some meat for their holiday dinner. Ham, goose, steaks, roasts, chicken, sausage -- it's all here. (Some quick Google work convinced me that butcher stands do indeed set up at Christmas Markets in Europe, so we thought this was fair game.

We've got lots of different meats -- what would you like?

The butcher is slicing some ham.

Here's a view of the interior from above; you can see the sink, fridge, etc.

And, around back, somebody else is taking a treat home...

Anyway, hope you all liked it We always enjoy these contests and everybody;s entries, and we really enjoyed the build this year.

Nice build, clever use of the sack as the Ham and good looking meat.

Good luck in the competition...

Fantastic entry there and a very practical idea! I love the extra little details you have put in, all the different kinds of meat and the dog out the back is priceless!!!

Good luck and happy building

Nothing much to add on all the details to what the others said.

Good luck in the competition.

Excellent entry here with some really nice details and touches. I like the interior work and the display of meats for sale :) good luck in the contest :)

Good work. The dog in the back is a nice touch. That butcher looks familiar.

[wonderpuddle]

Love the knocked over trash in the back. Good luck in the contest.

[MaineBrickFan]

Thank you all for the very nice compliments! We are a little proud of the ham design; and I owe credit for the brick-built steaks and shoulders to my 10-year-old son.

Good luck to everybody in the competition... I cannot wait to see the other entries.

Nice market stall you have created 'MaineBrickFan' I especially like the ham being sliced. Pity you didn't have the butcher from the CMF series 6 on the stall, but good all the same.

[TheOrcKing]

Interesting 'choice cuts' you have there.
