Wish I had the dimensions for this house to make this for our almost two year old Aurora. Looks like they used a large appliance box as the base. I would decorate it a lot more but the concept is great.

Save each of the five images above. Print on 8.5″ x 11″ paper borderless. Do this by selecting the image one at a time and click print. Options should come up: uncheck option to fit in frame and select 8.5′ x 11′ borderless and print. These will give you uniform pattern. To make it slightly small you can check the 8.5′ x 11′ with border. This plan can have moderate changes made by decoration to make it a church, house, post office or school.

Stained Glass Star Gingerbread House

I love the stained glass (candy) window added to this gingerbread house. This one has a clean design leaving the corners undecorated as well as the edges of the gingerbread men. The stained glass is made from melting a shiny candy. Melt the candy, pour onto wax paper to let it go flat and press same cookie cutter (cover with Crisco type product) that was used in the gingerbread itself and cut a shape out. You can also lay the gingerbread with the cutout directly onto wax paper and pout the melted candy into the cutout until filled. Make sure this is poured a little thick – otherwise it will be very fragile. This could be a school, church or house.
