Well, if I’m honest, we’ve not done it but here is a whole batch of Christmas Hama Bead Patterns from days of yore, with a special appearance by “Santiclors” designed by a very young Gwenny.
Make a Fireplace Christmas Craft
Or how to make sure Father Christmas can get into your house if you don’t have a chimney. In our slightly nomadic past, which ended abruptly almost 5 years ago when we bought this house, we always managed to rent houses with chimneys, making it nice and easy for the great man to access the […]
Christmas Characters Pom Pom Craft
We’re busy here, doing better than you might think at enjoying each others company and being together. After being hectically busy, trade pretty much stopped when the Daily Mail started banging on about the weather so I was able to come home and be with the kids and Max hasn’t been so stretched either. We […]
Christmas Wreaths & Fimo Xmas Shapes
A couple of weeks ago I did a round up of some Christmas craft ideas, when I still had hope we’d replicate last years happy Christmas crafty month. We’ve not quite achieved that so far, but there is still time and we finally made a start on it on Monday,yesterday and today – thank heavens […]
Christmas Crafting & Ideas
Last December we called time on ‘home educating normals’ for December as I felt that after years of me being immersed in business during the festive season, the girls deserved my full attention and some old fashioned fun. As it happened, we ended up, through a variety of add on conversations and the sheer joy […]
Matisse/Klee Art Day
There is always a danger to deciding to make plans – and that tends to be for me that I automatically rebel and stop working to them 🙄 I think this is probably a behaviour I should have outgrown by now. Anyway, we did an Art.etc day with added Beans which was really lovely. I […]
All the other things we've been doing.
I’m so far behind on the day to day life around here that I don’t think I can remember. Maddy went on her PGL holiday and loved it. I wasn’t really worried about her going, though it didn’t feel very long after all our traumas. She was very pleased to be going and came home […]
Xmas Pomander Display – and Merry Christmas.
Craft #20 was the most beautiful of the season. Much easier than I imagined and smell and look really lovely. The key to this is definitely to cut out simple designs in the peel with a fruit knife yourself and then let the kids push cloves through the pith. We’ve finished Christmassing the house – […]
Quick Xmas Sweets & Wrapping Paper
Oooh, nearly there now!!!! Loads we didn’t do but never mind, we can either finish them over the holiday or do them next Christmas i guess! #14 was the handy John Lewis Cracker Kit we got cheap while buying presents. A certain amount of frustration initially until they got the hang of minimal glue being […]
Candle, Foam & Felt Xmas Crafts
Made easier by being fairly snow bound still, although i think that will change tomorrow. Our street is an ice-rink – i went out last night and kind of wished i hadn’t as the roads were VERY slippy. These little chaps were mostly made while Uncle Rich was still here. And this charming little foamy […]
