This house has "glass" windows made from melted Halloween candy and battery-powered "candles" that cast a flickering glow through them (even in the dormer).  Note the hidden trap door so you can turn the lights off.

The walls are real gingerbread and royal icing is what holds everything together.  The indoor Christmas tree, curtains, and snowman's scarf are made from flavored Tootsie Rolls, molded like clay.
