Feel free to email me anytime at barbgadway@live.com  Enjoy making these beautiful crafts! Only 5 more days till Christmas, can you believe it???? You can even give these as a special gift for someone special in your child's life too. 👱💚

 Number 1  Pipe Cleaner Stars

Making your own decorations has never been easier as all you need is pipe cleaners and beads.

This craft not only looks fab when it’s finished but uses fiddly fingers and fine motor skills throughout. Simply thread beads onto the pipe cleaner, twist the ends together and bend into a star shape!

Number 2 Pine Cone Christmas Trees

You will need:

• Clean pine cones
• Craft paint
• Brush
• Craft glue
• Glitter
• Small terracotta pots
• Aluminum stars                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Paint your terra cotta pot any color of your choice. Next, take your clean pine cone and paint the tip of each scale. When the paint was dry put a thin line of glue on the edge of the scales near the top of the mini tree and sprinkle glitter on the glue to make it look like the mini trees had been dusted by frost. When the glue dries set a pine cone in each painted pot and topped each pine cone with a star made out of a craft foil.                                                                                                                                                              Number 3   Pasta Snowflakes
