Make a dangling snowmen ornament

This easy craft will make a great addition to any Christmas tree. To make these you will need white and orange craft foam. Cut three circles out of the white foam, using as patterns some different sized lids.  Make a nose out of the orange foam. Using glue dots, glue a string of monofilament across the circles. Decorate the snowman with buttons, ribbons and markers and he is ready for use!

Create a Christmas village

Using some items that you probably have in your house, let the kids make a beautiful village. Use cardboard boxes, such as cereal boxes for the buildings. To decorate you will need wrapping paper, candy canes and candies, cotton balls and pompoms. To make some fun details, you can even print out some windows or doors. Now, just wrap the boxes and glue on the decorations!

Use those buttons

Buttons are great for crafting. One idea is to use them to make easy wreath ornaments. Just take a wire and assorted (or not) buttons. After putting the buttons on the wire, give it a circle shape and secure it. Tie a matching ribbon and you’ll have a unique ornament for your tree.

Yummy marshmallow pops

Making marshmallow pops is guaranteed to be fun for the kids. To make, you just need marshmallows, lollipop sticks, pretzels and candy melts. Also, you’ll need various edible decorations to put on the marshmallows and to create the faces or trees. With a nice ribbon, they even can be a great gift for anyone.
