Makit & Bakit
I had some Xmas decoration stained glass ornaments as a kid. I have strong memories of putting the coloured crystals in the metal frames and baking them. I remember the smell, and loved the textures, colours and designs. There was definitely a candle, a holly leaf, some jingle bells and a xmas tree.
I REALLY want to do these with my kids. I've determined that they will have been 'Makit & Bakit', and whilst this still seems to exist in the US, there doesnt seem to be much about in the UK. I've seen what there is on ebay and some entries on Amazon, but was wondering if anyone knew of some secret suppliers or the like?
I had the same dilemma with Mini-stek which I managed to source at a reasonable price in the Netherlands. Just thought it was worth asking as my own searches have been pretty fruitless

Found the offical website for colorbok with current Makit & Bakit / Make it and bake it kits https://www.colorbok.com/product-category/make-it-and-bake-it/
you could try contacting them to see if they still make xmas designs (Colorbok seems to be owned by American Crafts)
