Christmas is knocking at the door!

2008-12-01T16:15:00.000-08:00

Christmas is only a few weeks away, and its around this time of the year that the wreaths start to appear on your neighbours doors. After being kept in a box for almost 11 months, your much loved decorative door ornament might be looking a little worse for wear! Why don't you wrap it back up safely, and try making your own new one? Here are some examples of some beautiful wreaths we have found...

Go green and make one out of recycled materials

Add some hand made animals, like these gorgeous little owls

Use found objects like buttons in a variety of different sizes and colours

Or why don't you make your wreath edible?

This wreath has been made out of Christmas tree baubles... you could use all those spare ones you will never use again cause one year you decided to have a bright purple theme, just to be different.

Paper pinwheels

2008-11-10T20:53:00.000-08:00

We thought this was a fun and easy craft idea. You will need some funky patterned paper, colourful push pins, a pair of scissors and wooden sticks. In the example below they have used pencils instead of sticks, although if you do use a smooth wooden stick, you can wrap it in ribbon to give your pinwheel that little extra touch!
