DIRECTIONS:
- Print out your gingerbread house stencil. You can print this onto photo paper and trace directly onto the paper or you can print onto normal paper and use a screen protector over the top of it to trace onto.
- Trace the Front Panel in Brown PLA filament, and decorate it, copying the design on the stencil using your choice of different color PLA filaments.
- Follow the same process for the back panel again in Brown PLA and then decorate it copying the design on the stencil.
- Trace the Side Panel twice in Brown PLA and decorate the panels in colors of your choice copying the design on the stencil.
- Be sure not to trace over the hatched parts of the stencil - these parts need to be kept clear, as these are the windows and door ways.
- Use the pen to stick the Back, Front and Side Panels together in the form of a house.
- Trace the doors in Brown PLA and the use the White PLA to draw the snow on the top of the doors, copying the stencil.
- Use the pen to stick the Back Doors on the Back Panel, one on either side over the gap left for the door way. Stick them at an angle to make them look like they are open slightly.
- Use the pen to stick the front door on the front panel over the door way, again stick it at an angle so that it looks slightly ajar.
- Trace over the roof panel twice, coloring the different sections in different colors.
- Stick the Roof Panels together using the pen, and then attach them to the rest of the house.
- Use the White PLA to trace the snow for the Roof Panels, and use the pen to attach them to the front and sides of the Roof Panels.
