To make roof tiles for your Gingerbread house, run a line of frosting across the bottom edge of your roof. Place the first row of crackers/candy at the bottom edge of your roof. For the second row, offset the "shingles" by starting with 1/2 a "shingle". Continue until your roof is covered.

When decorating, be careful not to put too much weight on your roof. Heavy candy or too much frosting could cause your roof to cave in.
