Enchanting Details
The gingerbread house is adorned with an array of delightful features, including:
- Character-themed Trees: Small tree-shaped figures decorated to resemble beloved Disney characters, including Pluto, Mickey, Goofy, Minnie, Donald, and Daisy, stand front and center on the balcony.
