Making a gingerbread house that lights up | Glass Gingerbread Greenhouse | Holiday Baking

Happy holidays everyone! I tried to make a glass gingerbread house (or green house?) from scratch this Christmas. This took me 3 days, from drafting the template, making the dough, baking the cookies to assembling them and decorating. But realistically, a few hours would be enough :) Really fun project to undertake! Was a perfect centre piece for my cheese and charcuterie board.
