Christmas Crafting Ideas by Flyingpig - Its Good To Share.

These would make a lovely place setting on your Christmas table - although I have mine on my desk at work.

Take a fircone, paint ends white and sprinkle with glitter - micro glitter, available in craft shops is the best as it's finer - and you could also add a little PVA glue to the paint to help the glitter stick to it as well.

Use a glue gun to attach the fircone to a very small flower pot. If you don't have a flower pot, an egg cup would do equallyas well, depending on the size of your cone ..... or perhaps even a coloured/patterned shot glass.

I have been restrained with my decoration, but you could be as abandonned as you like with beads, tinsel etc. ...... and fun activity to do with the kids.

If you already have a fairy door, why not make a tiny Christmas wreath to go on it using a pipecleaner and a tiny Christmas bell or ribbon?

It's often cheaper to buy a selection bags of festive wrapped sweets from Poundshops etc. and seperate them all out to make up your own little gift/favour bags

All you need is some cellophane bags .....



Then look for cheap character decorations like these Santa's to tie onto the bags (these were from Poundland, and work out at 33p each, I have also seen angels, but other decorations would do like bells and baubles)



My bags contain a couple of chocolate coins, foiled wrapped chocolate figures, plus chews, lollies and other wrapped sweets, not everything has to be Christmassy.
