Every year during the Christmas season, one of our traditions as a family is to decorate gingerbread houses. This year we figured we would make a party out of it, inviting a bunch of friends in our building and community over for the evening for dinner and decorating.
I took a trip to any expat's favorite store... Ikea, where I purchased the gingerbread house kits and majority of the holiday party decor. For a fun festive twist, I decided to tie a red ribbon around each individual package and top it off with an ornament that each guest could take home with them at the end of the evening. Wrapping paper in a coordinating color and style was lined down the center of the table, and on it was placed bowls for the different candies that would be used to decorate each house. The white candy bowls are the perfect backdrop to hold all the colorful candies.
