What happens here
Once the gingerbread brick pattern is in place, simulate the white 'icing' that typically outlines gingerbread house elements. Use white puffy paint, acrylic caulk, or even thin strips of white foam or felt to create lines around each brick and along the seams of the elevator walls and ceiling. The video shows distinct white outlines that give a snowy, frosting-like appearance. Additionally, add 'snow' accents to ledges, corners, and the top edges, possibly using cotton batting or artificial snow spray for a soft, fluffy effect.
Goal: Outline bricks and add snowy accents
