Christmas crafts with the kids



Just before i put away all the christmas decorations, i thought i would post some of the christmas dec's i made with the kids. After my recent brief about sustainability, i thought it only fitting to include are hand-made dec's made from waste fabric. We had a lovely afternoon sewing, stuffing, gluing and sticking. We even made green rice reefs made from a mixture of glue [pva],cooked rice and green food colouring. By adding some glitter into the mix we were very pleased with our end results, although they turned out a little heavy for our tree. The fabric creations are beautiful and i will keep them for many years to come and i am very happy with y boy's sewing skills.
