Introduction
With this part and only two weeks, until Christmas arrives, I'm presenting part 15 of Crafting 4 Christmas. There are still a few decorations left that I wish to make in the next weeks, and I also hope the biggest project will end up being awesome. But more about that next week!
In the last part, I showed an example of how to make a Christmas wreath (the basis) from scratch using only what's in the house. In my case, I used aluminum foil and paper mache on top. You can find the post here: Paper Mache Christmas Wreath. The first part is suitable for small children, as you will get sticky hands, and we all know most children love that!
I didn't share the decorated end result yet, as we have started that part today. Today my daughter was in charge of which items we would put on the wreath, I attached them as I don't want her to use a glue gun yet to avoid painful moments.
I think it took us about 20 minutes to decorate it only, which was a quick craft today.
Instructions
Some extra information about the hidden ball, my daughter was determined to add the white ball, even though a coloured one would have been better visible. It's her wreath, she was in charge, so the white one it is. :)
I also added another branch on the lower right which I didn't include in the instructions. Here's the end result once more:
Conclusion
Decorating a Christmas tree can be done with so many things, be creative like my daughter who wanted to use the Christmas candy wraps, it looks cool, I have to give her that!
Hopefully, you enjoyed this part of Crafting 4 Christmas, and see you next time!
