One of my favorite traditions every year that we do is creating gingerbread houses. Now, let me tell you OUR gingerbread houses never look anything like this! But, I do love to look at beautiful gingerbread houses! I’m always inspired and I think they are so gorgeous!

This is a whole gingerbread village! Or as Josh put it a giant gingerbread castle. Either way it’s gorgeous!

I love the details on this house! That snowman, the stack of wood and the trees! Adorable!

How cute are these macaroon trees? The colors are just so sweet on this gingerbread house!

Everyone loves a gumdrop roof! This gingerbread house is super sweet!

This gingerbread house is super colorful. I love the piping and the wood door!

Sigh. This is love. Seriously, this Victorian Gingerbread house is just perfect!

This is one of my favorite gingerbread houses EVER!

Santa’s castle is fit for a king! They did a fantastic job creating this!

I love this neighborhood scene. It’s different than some that I’ve seen, but I really am in love with it!

I’m not sure if the vanilla waffers would have time to make it to the gingerbread house or not! Those are some of Josh’s favorites!

Are you inspired? Whether your gingerbread house comes out like one of these or if it comes out looking more like mine usually do – either way, these are a super fun Christmas tradition to do with your family!

Don’t forget to pin!
