Simply delightful!! What a fun bunch of houses. They are just perfect! Love the girls working on them and love the finished products. Very nice gingerbread adventure. Thank you for sharing the fun with us.
Opal and Agathe love adventures, and this one was a particularly delicious and delightful one!
So industrious! They look delicious. I hope the girls brushed their teeth because surely they must have nibbled, for quality control of course.
I am pretty sure the worrywart Mary Ann will have reminded them about tooth-brushing!
The girls look so pleased and so proud of their gingerbread accomplishments! What a fun and beautiful gingerbread village!
Thanks, we have been having so much fun with the Gingerbread project…now we just have restrain ourselves, and admire it for a while before we demolish it!
Wonderful village! So cute and am impressed that it was from scratch. Looks like Hittys were a big help. We have been known to hot glue the houses together before decorating as could not get them to hold!
We like to eat the houses afterward, so we use royal icing – 3 cups icing sugar, 2 teaspoons lemon juice and 2 egg whites. It dries very fast, but you have to get just the right consistency – too runny and the sides of the houses fall down, and too thick and they won’t stick. Just a few drops more of lemon juice or water – literally a drop or two at a time if it is thick…
Wow, they look great and what god helpers the girls were….hope their tummies are feeling okay as well!
The wooden girls were happy to see the project through! It has to be said that some of the small participants were very excited, and some of them may have ingested slightly more candy than was good for them…
What a perfect little Gingerbread house. A lot of work, but the end result is outstanding. As always, great pictures.
Thanks! It was a lot of work, but with the girls helping, somehow it was not onerous at all!
the girls look so pleased with the results – and they don’t even have a splatter of icing on their aprons!
They were surprisingly non-sticky at the end of this session, perhaps there was a bout of licking and face-wiping before I got the camera out!
