That is so clever!
This year, Joann’s had exquisite little paper houses and churches, with tiny LEDs inside that make the windows light up. I couldn’t resist, and bought one; but I put it on the tree and forgot to turn it off, and now it doesn’t light up.
Husband says it just needs new batteries, which can be replaced; and those little houses would be perfect in the apothecary jar scene.

Those little paper houses are adorable.
Maybe you could put a flickering tea light in the bgrnd...to light the houses from behind?
I’ve seen some scenes in a jar w/ little figures of children and lamp-posts (some actually light up).....easily found in Christmas shops selling various Christmas villages.
