Gingerbread House Preservation Tips:
- Let your gingerbread house dry in a warm room for 24 hours.
- Place the dry house in a well-ventilated room and spray well with varnish.
- Warning: A brush might knock off candy.
- Make sure to cover the house completely with varnish – inside door frames and windows included. Spray the inside first, and then circle the outside.
