PATTERNS |
| |
| |
There
are many different ways of making a gingerbread house,
and you can find patterns for it on the Internet to
download. But from the smallest log cabin to the biggest
walk-in house, you need to consider the following:
-The space you have for a house to be displayed for
3-4 weeks.
-The time you have available for making the house.
-The money you can afford to spend on your creation. |
|
The
patterns you can download from this page are for the houses
I made in 2002, and if you are completely new to baking
gingerbread houses I suggest you make a basic 4 wall house
with a roof as your first project. The middle part of my
design is a stand-alone house and can be used without cutting
out for windows. Instead you can use icing sugar to draw
windows and door. This will make a very stabile, easy made
first time house. |

| How
to make the pattern: |
| |
|
Click
on the link to the left and download the zip file GBH_files.zip.
Print out all the files included, or alternatively, open
and print the 8 PDF files to the left directly from here
one by one. In order to read PDF files, you need to have
Adobe® Acrobat® Reader® installed in your computer.
You can DOWNLOAD
the latest Acrobat® Reader® for free from Adobe's
website.
|
You
will now have 8 A4 sheets of pattern.
For best result, either print on thick paper, 170g for example,
or glue the sheets to cardboard to make a sturdier pattern.
You can also print on plastic acetate sheets which makes
long lasting pattern you can wipe after use. Cut out all
the pieces and cut out openings for windows and door. |
