As the Yuletide season
approaches I thought that I’d engage in a little Christmas spirit and offer a
few resources to help you out with the coming festivities.
First up is a series of
creative craft items – who doesn’t love a bit of glitter? (Though now
apparently you need to get bio-degradable glitter) – as well as some fun-filled treats.
I used Pinterest to search for these craft ideas – no
systematic search here, I just chose what I thought looked fun and reasonably
easy. Most of the links go to blog items from hobbyists and some related
companies. Be aware that the pages will include a lot of adverts.
Creative Crafts
- Paper Christmas Tree Craft – fun with cardboard, paper and glue
- Handprint Christmas Tree cards – decorate your handprint Christmas tree
- Paper Plate Christmas Characters: Santa, Rudolph, Snowman – decorating paper plates
- Glittering Popsicle Stick Christmas Trees Ornaments – you could use card if you don’t have an endless supply of popsicle sticks
- Tea Light Snowman Ornaments – clever use of tea-lights, you can make penguins too
- Popsicle Stick Santa ornaments – you could use this idea with any kind of decoration
- Button Snowflake – more uses for popsicle sticks
- Paper plate masks – be as creative as you like; fun for selfies
- Christmas Wreath Ornament – go all-out Blue Peter and try this yourself
- Candy Cane Wreath – simple but effective
Fun-filled Treats
- Snowman Snack Cups Recipe – fun way to have snacks
- Reindeer Treat Bags – I want to make these!
- Strawberry Santas – you could use writing icing or chocolate drops for the eyes, what about a healthy cream-cheese instead of cream?
- Grinch Kabobs – healthy fruit kebabs dipped in chocolate sauce
- Watermelon Christmas Trees – a healthy festive snack
Have fun everyone!
