I'm so glad I photographed these gingerbread buildings at the Tamaya Hilton resort in Bernalillo because I can see some of the details better.

I love the little gingerbread horno/outdoor baking oven in this one along with the corn grinding station and the lady making tortillas in the back right. I think the luminarias/farolitos are made from candy corn someone put a dowel through to shape them.




Every gingerbread village needs a church.



I've made a few gingerbread houses and always wanted to try the technique of making stained glass from hard candy as shown below in the windows.



I like the cinnamon stick gate door and the ristra made of real chiles.



I have a few more gingerbread photos to show you tomorrow.
