The directions on the back of the box only make sense AFTER you put the thing together, or, well, if you had building these things all your life.
First, you have to make the "glue"-- a mix of egg whites, sugar, and a little vinegar. "Whip until it is very foamy"--- uh-huh.
Then it seems really impossible that the house is actually going to stay together, but you have to have faith! Even though it takes about a day for the egg whites to dry out and become hard, the stickiness will keep the thing from collapsing.
Aaaahhhh! The witch is HUGE!
