- Spread a thin layer of hummus or cream cream across entire house to act as your stucco.
- Make the roof by laying overlapping shingles of radish and/or cucumber across the entire surface of each side. Leave a space to press on your nougat chimney.
- Next, make an outline as you wish across the house, with red pepper and skinny pretzels.
- Use your quadrant pretzels to make windows, and carrot half coins to make awnings. Press firmly so everything sticks.
- Stack your circle pretzels to make little "pots" to fill with thyme sprigs and broccoli pieces.
- Stick a dab of hummus on the table and "plant" your rosemary sprig standing upright, like a tree. Garnish around the tree with some kale, for "plants."
