Halloween gingerbread houses— yay or nay?

[Foreverfox]

I’ve been marinating on this since I saw the thread post. I love the idea of making gingerbread houses, and despite my artistic abilities, I am AWFUL at assembling gingerbread houses. If I picture a Halloweenly decorated gingerbread house, I‘d maybe put on purple icing for the roof, and black cobweb shingles. Perhaps some bats and some ghosts and skeletons posted up somewhere. Will I do it? Nah, probably not. Too many animals to worry about getting into it XD

YAY! That sounds like so much fun and the perfect combination! I love making Gingerbread houses during Christmas time so I am surprised I haven't thought of Halloween ones!!! The decorating with candy makes an even better orange pumpkiny halloween look! I do not think I have time this year but oh that is now on a list of fun things to do eventually! LOVE IT!

I love gingerbread houses in general! My family buys one for Christmas every year and I love decorating them.
Come to think of it, I think they actually bought a Halloween gingerbread house last year!!

sounds pretty groovy!! and they look rad, though i'm not a fan of gingerbread so i don't think i'd construct one. also i'm not certain about my artistic abilities

I've never made a gingerbread house of any kind myself, but I really like seeing them! ^^ Even if gingerbread houses are more typically associated with Christmas, I don't think they necessarily have to be a Christmas-only thing. All the Halloween ones I've seen have been really cool, and I love the idea of making them for other holidays as well.
I'd love to make a gingerbread house (or other form of cookie house) at some point, and I'd been thinking of it as a potential Christmas activity, but it might be fun to try for Halloween too! Either way, I'll probably just use a kit ahahaha

I think they are cute. I wouldn’t eat them and I don’t make them myself or planning on making them, but they are adorable. I like the way they smell as well, but not their taste.

Yes, there also should be more Halloween trees.

Bonus points if you manage to make the creation edible.

I have a small light-up Halloween tree from QVC…but it would be fun to make a big one, too!

I'm sadly not much for crafts. I can never make good gingerbread houses, cute as they are. I did, however, arrange a really beautiful fall-themed "sweet charcuterie" board. Not an actual charcuterie board, but it was pumpkin candy and graham crackers with various chocolates, melted caramel, cookies, marshmallow, etc.. Was a hit with my party guests. Centerpieces were those seasonal Little Debbie Pumpkin Delight cakes lol.

i don’t really like gingerbread so i’ve never bought one, but i think they’re cute! i love the idea of using them as decor instead of eating them though, so maybe i’ll give one a try one day. i loved decorating gingerbread houses at christmas time when i was a kid.
