well I’m happy to bring you 24 days of easy peasy Christmas crafts that anyone can do to have a handmade christmas this year……..I’ve got knitting, crocheting, sewing, stitching, baking and jamming all covered.
today I’m showing you how to do an easy christmas wreath…I found this design at better homes and gardens magazine last year. You’ll need a bamboo or wire wreath from your craft store, fabric scraps in a range of colours…think traditional green red and white or maybe linen and red would be lovely too. Just cut your scraps into 2-5cm wide pieces and knot around your wreather….add a bow or maybe something else festive and voila its ready to hang on the door or giveaway.
Keira does look beautiful with her button necklace. Isabelle used to love playing with those buttons from Spotlight too, but she liked sorting them into shapes and colors and could spend quite a while doing so.
Aww….lovely necklace. She is talented.
Of course. Did you expect it to end any other way?
Oh I know the button chucking game. Mind you tipping out Mummy’s button basket and playing with them allows Mummy quite a bit of time on the sewing machine!! Mummy just has to find where they end up at the end. Yay for buttons!
great necklace. looking forward to when my little girl shows interest. aren’t they just cherubs when they loose interest and start playing toss the button?? but would we have it any other way??
LOL….. thats a well practised game in my sewing room…. or should I say the room with the button flooring. Cute pix.
I’m impressed you found buttons with big enough holes to take the elastic and needle!
