a very crafty christmas

Doesn't Christmas time make you want to make a million things all at once? Well maybe not, but I seem to go into crafty overdrive once December hits, probably because of all the amazing DIY tutorials floating around in blogland. So this year I decided to do a round-up of my favourites...



Scallop edge felt Christmas trees - I love these, they look super easy to make and I love the fun colours for a bright Christmas table setting. All I need is some scallop scissors...

Baby sock advent calendar - why didn't I think of doing that?! Very cute way to count down to Santa's arrival, who doesn't like mini-socks?

Felt 3D ornaments - also looks really easy to make for a wow-factor to trim your tree.

Lumps of coal gift boxes - these are so fun, I'd love to get a lump of coal with some diamonds inside! How ironic is that? Mr M's family is Dutch and are forever going on about how Sintaklass is coming and Black Peter might give you coal! Love it.

Fabric bird ornament kit - you can buy this whole kit from The Red Thread for only $12 to make these cute tweety birds to zoom around your tree.

And my favourite Christmas craft tutorial would have to be Belinda's book page cone wreath she created over at The Happy Home. Just the right amound of tradition, whimsy and sparkle!

Merry Craftmas everyone.
