Making a hamster DIY gingerbread house

Post by ForgetfulBreeze »

I made a "gingerbread" house for my hammies! It's made from only glue, paper, wooden cubes and cardboard, so it's a 100% safe hideout!

First, I cut out the pieces. I planned it out size wise. 2 roof pieces, 2 sides, a front and a back.

Then, I cut it out using an exacto knife. I glued it together using wooden cubes and decorated it by cutting out paper, bunching it up etc!

Thank you! I really tried to make a dog-safe (hamster safe too) mini gingerbread house for them, but it was SO sugary and syurpy that I wouldn't ever give it to them. Even for a little bit haha. This was the alternative. I hope Azi doesnt pee on it or something.

Franchement, c’est une super idée, ça a l’air à la fois créatif et utile pour tes hamsters. Le fait que tu aies tout pensé niveau taille et utilisé des matériaux simples montre que tu as pris le temps de bien faire les choses. En plus, si tout est vraiment sans https://shinywilds-casino.fr/ danger, c’est parfait comme cachette. Les petits détails comme le papier pour décorer donnent un côté sympa, même si tes hammies s’en fichent un peu, toi tu sais que tu leur as fait quelque chose de spécial.
