Hi folks, Do any of you sell gingerbread houses (either Halloween or Chrismas themed?)

If so:

1) how much do you charge? (if you do not mind me asking)
2) do you sell "kits" or fully decorated and if so, how much decoration do you do??
3) Do you box them or shrink-wrap? Do they come with decor like a christmas tree in front?, etc....

Just wondering and planning icon_smile.gif

I charge $.25 - $1.00 per square inch of the design. I calculate it based on the size of each wall and don't factor in the roof.
