I have done a couple of simple christmassy designs on my blog using sequins that are nice and simple to do.



and



You just draw (or stencil) the shape and fill it in with christmassy sequins! I find tweezers useful for moving the sequins around. Stick them down and you have either a card or decoration. For a card you would rub out the pencil lines, for a decoration you cut the shape out.

Have to agree craftygranny. Some people don't have a clue how to organise a Fair.

These look fab - you could cut them out for a card also then attach them to a card with foam pads for a 3D effect.
