Gingerbread House Making Ideas For

KidsLovely Gingerbread Inspiration!

This past Sunday selling art supplies at my favorite farmers market in Encinitas, I got inspired to make gingerbread houses.

One of my best customers told me about her families tradition making gingerbread houses every year.

Their tradition started when visiting a candy shop and wanting to display the beautiful candy they bought.

Now their gingerbread house making is so grand including trains, bridges and large landscapes.

The gingerbread houses are so big the family takes them to community events to share and be eaten up.

I love that community idea, no waste art!

The idea of designing a small house with peppermint, icing icicles, lollipops and yummy gum drops sounds like a really fun time for me my kids.

I have a feeling we will each need to make our own house after looking at these ideas and designs online.

I have to admit as a crafty-designer I have never made a gingerbread house before, but I can already imagine my cute gingerbread house done.

I have made an army of gingerbread men so I know I can

Have sweet fun making a gingerbread house or just eating someones!
