Instructions
Step 1
Decide where you want your Gingerbread House doodle on the page and start by drawing a triangle. Then draw a wavy inner line. This will be the icing on the roof gable of your Gingerbread house.

Step 2
Next, draw the rest of your gingerbread house's roof. Use a wavy line for the bottom edge of the roof, for more icing effect.

Step 3
Now draw two the shape of your hose. Note how the back corner of the house is slightly shorter than the front. This will help give your gingerbread house a 3D look.

Step 4
Use a fish scale pattern to create the roof tiles on your gingerbread house.

Step 5
A door is next. Don't forget the door handle.

Step 6
Now for some decoration. We drew two circular candies for the windows but you could do any decorations that you feel like doing.

Step 7
Draw more decoration. You could use candy canes like in our gingerbread doodle or jelly tots, gummy candy or anything you want to.

Step 8
Add a chimney next. We drew stripes on ours for a candy cane effect.

Step 9
The last step is to have fun and color your Gingerbread House drawing.
