Using scissors or a paring knife, trim gum sticks, graham crackers, wafer cookies, or candy bar to fit the length of the window.
Using medium consistency royal icing in a decorating bag with tip 3, pipe a small amount of icing on the back of the shutter.
Position shutters, icing side against the house, on either side of the window.
