Ginger bread help

[gaited horse]

I have this really cool ginger bread house designed but I can't think of a candy that looks like straw and pine shavings.
Does anyone have any ideas on what i can use to make straw bedding and pine shavings?

Lemon peel/zest? Toasted coconut?

yup! good ideas! grated lemon peel or toasted coconut.. yum!
and we need a pic when its all done!

Shreadded wheat is a good straw stand-in.

 

[redhen]

ooh..another good idea! Your house is going to look great gaited!
make a pig barn with piggies for me...
