Color choices

Building the gingerbread house can begin with warm brown walls and roof panels. Use white or pale pink for the piped icing along the edges, window, and scalloped decorations. Choose red, green, yellow, and purple for the candies in the bowls and on the work surface. A bright door or window trim will contrast with the gingerbread walls.

Candy Pattern Plan

Choose a repeating color sequence for the round candies and peppermint swirls, then carry the same sequence onto the decorated panels.

Before you print

With about 145 areas to color, Building a Gingerbread House Coloring Page sits at a medium level of detail. Use crayons for the big shapes and switch to pencils for the narrow parts.

Print the PDF on US Letter paper, or pick “Fit to page” for A4. Try one copy first to check the line weight and margins before printing more.
