Firstly we made some "Twig Reindeers" - as my brother lives on a property there was no shortage of branches / twigs to choose from.
Just choose some that are a "Y" shape and this is the result after adding a couple of google eyes and a pom pom nose.
Next we gathered up some more twigs and toilets rolls and made these two reindeers - they look so good!
Both the above ideas were sourced from Pinterest.
All the children participated in making the Christmas Tree decorations, however I was too busy to take photos. By far the favourite was the "bird in the wreath" - see here for the original post.
I am not sure if I will have time for any more craft before Christmas, although I should of taken photos yesterday of the inventive ways we were wrapping gift vouchers - I can tell you, that not one of the finished gifts looked like a gift voucher. Maybe it is better that I did not take photos, as family members read my blog.
Hope you are all organised for Christmas? For the first time in many years, I am not at all organised, so I had better get a wiggle on ...
Until next time, Take care

What a fantastic crafty birthday. Great fun for all. They look terrific. How easy and all readily available. Well done I love the idea.
