Santa's Summer Cottage

Some time ago I thought, where does Santa spend his summer vacation?
It's a great idea to make Santa's summer house. Gingerbread house

I made this little )))  Santa's  house. Its dimensions are 30x30x50 cm. I spent 6 kg of gingerbread dough and 2 kg of icing on it. It consists of about 500 parts. I decorated the house with royal icing transfer technique elements. To make them all at once, I needed 38 sheets of cardboard.

I made  Santa's Summer cottage  for two weeks. In the first week I drew up the  house drawing and royal icing elements  designs. I draw them with a pencil on paper or  on the computer. It all depends on my mood. And the second week I baked and decorated my house

I think Santa will be pleased )

I think Santa will be more than just pleased - this is fantastic! Thanks for sharing the progress! How did you come up with the design?

Sofiya, I can’t get over the hours and the amount of details in this masterpiece! Congratulations and my deep admiration for your very hard work. I hope it goes to some International competition, because it’s absolutely amazing!👏👏♥️

Thanks a lot❤️❤️❤️

I like to draw houses on paper. I don't limit myself in any way, and I draw whatever comes to mind. After that, I take a photo of my art and download it to a computer.  I draw a  house templates in Wilcom. This is a special software for embroidery machines, but I like to use it for my gingerbread designs. After that I print drawing and start baking cookies
