Trace your windows on a piece of parchment parper - flip over<br />2. Crush hard butterscotch candy's into small chips<br />3. Fill in the shapes of the windows letting it overhang a bit<br />4. Put in 350 degree over until melted. <br />5. Let cool until stiff and you can pick them up<br /><br />If the crushed candy isn't even it could bubble, bu tthat's fine by me you can always pop the bubble while it's hot and put back in the oven. <br /><br />Once cool, ice into place from the back like you did the construction paper.<br /><br />Good luck next year!DAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06242691304393481987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2755172747868483778.post-54013951178173148532012-12-10T20:29:32.545-05:002012-12-10T20:29:32.545-05:00So neat...but lots harder than it looks isn't ...So neat...but lots harder than it looks isn't it?Pura Vidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04423379787232688763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2755172747868483778.post-72156365348970133662012-12-10T18:58:04.072-05:002012-12-10T18:58:04.072-05:00Very charming and lovingly homemade.
