30+ Gingerbread Crafts

Many, many years ago, now I would slave away in the kitchen for days baking lots and lots of Christmas cookies to give to neighbors, co-workers, and friends for Christmas. The effort was a total labor of love and a great way for me to show the people that I cared for that they were worth my time and effort. My gingerbread men were especially coveted. Since I didn’t care for the strong flavor of traditional gingerbread, I had made my own version with far less spice and a special ingredient (butterscotch pudding!) Since I still love the idea of gingerbread though I don’t plan on baking any this season, I decided to make some gingerbread inspired crafts. In love with the idea, I also started to look around at some amazing gingerbread inspired crafts by my fellow bloggers. Today I’m sharing with you all of the awesome projects I found…
