Gingerbread Barn

I’m really looking forward to Christmas this year, and making all sorts of tiny Christmas-y things. I think this is because I felt like such a scrooge last year (retail does that to you, what can I say) so THIS year I’m making up for it. Or something.

Anyway, today I decided to kick the mini stuff off with a gingerbread house. Or rather, a gingerbread barn, because why not?

It was one of those… easier said than done projects.

So it’s not perfect.

But it’s still cute so I’m happy. 🙂 I couldn’t make it without a set of cookies to go with it, so those were next. The icing was a mixture of solid and liquid polymer clay, which made decorating them incredibly difficult… so they’re also not perfect.

But neither are the real cookies I bake, so that’s my excuse. That and these are each smaller than my fingernail.

I’m craving gingerbread now though…
