Hammie's problems with a gingerbread house yesterday reminded me that my owner had gotten me a kit to make a gingerbread house too.
So me and my owner got to work today to make the house.Everything we needed was in the box.
first we laid out all the pieces on a piece of aluminiumfoil.
Then we mixed the sugar into a paste to use as frosting and glue.
We put it in a plastic bag and cut a hole in the bag so we could use it to draw decorations on the gingerbread pieces.
Then we had to wait awhile for it to dry a bit.
We put the house together using more of the frosting as glue.
Tada!Here's the finished house, I really like how it turned out.

I think that your gingerbread house looks very festive! Are you going to get to eat it? Some of the people whose blogs I read have to wait till New Years, and others have already started to eat it!
@Hammie: Yes, she got it at that store. She bought it before Sinterklaas and put it away for Christmas, so that's why we almost forgot about it.
@Marlowe: I think we'll keep it standing at least till New Year and I'm not sure if it will still be good to eat by then.
What a brilliant house!! I love the slurpy glue drips!!
I think I would have eaten the house before I got it put together. :)
Me too!!!!
Looks great! I've always wanted to put one together...but I have a feeling it would turn out odd shaped...maybe sideways...;)
Take care!
Thanks everyone! and I had a bit of trouble to get the walls to stay upright, but luckily the gluey sugar stuff worked very well.
