We have been awash with cards from their school friends and they have been filling every side of my kitchen. So yesterday I gave them the task of making some card garlands.
We just sellotaped the cards to some string and then fixed some raffia to it and tied it to the banisters. It takes up no room but lets them show off their cards.
This afternoon we are in the process of making a Gingerbread House, (if I stop eating all the dough!) I found the recipe here and so far its going good.
I've also been making a box of these paper wheels to make into a garland, I'm using the off cuts of wrapping paper so just need to put it together.
I also managed to finish my wreath for my front door on Sunday, I used and artificial wreath that I get out every year. I added some dried pomegranate, (which I have been drying in the cupboard for a few weeks) battery lights and some bright red ribbon.
Then after Christmas I can strip it all off and reuse it next year.
I hope you are having a good week and are not to stressed by the Christmas craziness. xxxx
Your wreath is brilliant, clever you! We have our cards in long lines taped together too, it's nice that the kids can see theirs isn't it? I've put up loads of those foil garlands, they are very 70s but I'm loving it.
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh about your and breathe post as that was my sentiments exactly today, I was photographing some of my pressies before wrappin them and I think there may be light at the end of th tunnel!
Hope you have a lovely Christmas with your family, it's all so special isn't it?
I love the idea of organising Christmas activities for the week before Christmas! Your wreath is gorgeous
