This year, I decided to gift a few of our friends with their own little Gingerbread House Party in a Box! I thought it would be fun to give them a little something to do on one of our cold, snowy midwest winter afternoons…that get dark a whole lot earlier than any of us mommas would like.
These kits are so easy to make! Just grab a few basic house constructing supplies, graham crackers and a can of white frosting, and then add in your choice of fun and festive candies for decorations. I even added in a few packets of hot cocoa mix and stripey straws to keep the little architects bellies warm while creating 🙂
I included starlight mints, gumballs, red hots, holiday sprees, holiday tic tacs, and holiday gumdrops along with a bunch of miniature candy canes which would also go great with the hot cocoa mix!
That’s cute! I know some people who might like a gift like this. =)
It is such a fun gift to make and give! Enjoy!!!
Wonderful idea! I love it! (I’d like to be given a gift like this too!)
Thanks Jill! Happy gingerbread-ing!!!
Love this idea! Where did you find the little tree and deer?
I bought them both at Michaels! Have fun!!!
I know this is old but I was wondering where you get your boxes?? Thanks, Happy Holidays.
Hi Liz!
I buy my boxes from Uline or the UPS store!!!
I would like to see a finished one
