Not My Gumdrop Buttons!


Had to share! My sister & I made our first gingerbread house this afternoon, and boy are we proud! :) Okay, so we are 26 and 29 years old and this is the best we could do, but hey, we are impressed! The icing was a disgusting consistency - a cross between toothpase and spackle - and it wouldn't even stick to the gingerbread. Oh well! After doing all of our last-minute Christmas shopping, wrapping and food prep, this was a great way to get us in the spirit on Christmas Eve!!

Your gingerbread house turned out great! We used that same kit and the icing WAS awful. That is why I am so amazed that you got it to make those pretty swirls. Way to go!

Thank you! We watered that icing down so much so we could do the swirls!

One of the hardest parts when it comes to making a ginger bread house is not eating the parts.
