Lopsided Gingerbread House Leaning Under a Scalloped Roof

A lopsided little gingerbread house leans a bit to one side, with a big scalloped roof made of overlapping rows of curved icing and a border of round gumdrop circles along the edge. A tall brick chimney sticks out at the upper left. The arched front door has a small four-pane window and a round knob, with a swirly decoration above it. Next to the door is a window with curtains pulled to each side, and a large swirled lollipop stands on a stick at the right. Wavy icing trims the left wall, and small gumdrop shapes line the ground, with a couple of dark stepping stones out front. Try coloring each scallop row in a different shade to make the roof look like layers of frosting, then use bright colors for the lollipop swirl. The thick outlines are friendly for younger kids, and you can print it free for a holiday baking day or a classroom center.
