The first step in making a gingerbread house from scratch is finding a recipe to make the dough. Then a template is needed to determine which shapes to cut the dough into. Then the dough needs to be baked according to the recipe directions. Once the house pieces have cooled, royal icing will be needed to "glue" the structure together. Lastly, candy will be needed for decoration!

Here's a link to a website with step-by-step directions, too!
