So, here are some pictures for anyone interested. This post has a lot of pictures so, hold on, here we go...
First pictures up.. the candy. I tatted every bit of candy on the house. I had someone, who saw it in person, think the chocolate kisses were real.. that was a big compliment!
Peppermints, gumdrops, lollipops and kisses.
Non-pareils and taffy trees.
Good and plentys and 'licorice' scotty dogs. I have a red one on the house, too.
The house beginnings..candy canes and block tatted door.
...and more. House on plastic shape I made, later made a cardboard one.
The house complete with tatted snow on the base. (I think that took the longest and was the most tedious.)
Closeup of Peppermint girl and you can see the red scotty in the background.
The back with licorice all sorts, candy canes making a heart, and gumdrops.
One of the sides. Gumdrops, taffy and "m&m's" on the roof.
The official picture of the Gingerbread house.
