Making a Gingerbread House Using Construction Materials

This concrete gingerbread house was born after the 2019 holiday season. I had some inspiration for making a gingerbread house out of unconventional materials (videos linked below) and dove into this DIY project excited to see the final result. I used nothing but construction materials, silicone molds, and a little craft paint to pull this together.
And I couldn’t be more excited how this one turned out! Well, except the snowman but that’s another story haha.
I had so much fun making this I think I might try to make more stuff using unconventional materials. And if I can pour concrete to get there I won’t be sad.
Let me know in the comments how you think this turned out and give this video a like!
