A gingerbread daydream in pastel pink. This hand-painted glass candy house has satin pink walls, a mint green roof and a peppermint swirl window, and its rooflines and base are piled high with tiny seed beads in white, red, sky blue and pink, like sprinkles that never stopped falling.

Pink bows dress the upper corners, an arched candy cane doorway sits front and center, and little blue and gold lollipops stand guard beside the door. At 4-1/2 inches tall it hangs from a gold string loop, ready for the tree, a wreath or a frosty window. Build a pastel Christmas around it, add it to a gingerbread village on the mantel, or tuck it into a gift for the baker who starts the holiday cookies in November.
