Every day the girls want to do something crafty. Drawing, colouring, painting, cutting, glueing - they love it all. Even Evie - who at 18 months has a special gift for finding pens no matter how hard I try to keep them from her. I have to wrestle a pen out of her hand at least once a day. Christmas provides tons of inspiration. Here are a small selection of some of our favourite Christmas crafts.

We actually invited 6 other kids over to make these wreaths at a Christmas crafts party we had when Alice had a day off school in November.

The girls went crazy with all kinds of glitter clue on these trees. Well, Evie wasn't allowed any glue - and quite frankly, after the sparkly mess I had to clean up, the olders girls weren't allowed any glitter glue either - not that there was any left.

Alice actually did this at school during indoor recess. She is very proud of Rudolf's body, that she drew on her own. She was disappointed that it was warm enough yesterday to go outside. She was hoping to spend more time colouring with markers that actually work. Ours are running low.
Hopefully Santa will bring her some new ones.

Shiny pipe cleaners and gold and silver beads kept them busy for a whole week in November.

Okay, so I made this one. The girls were very appreciative. I made one for each girl and they played with them like they were children. Shiny snowflake children - that are practically indestructable.

How fun! You've done some awesome crafts this year, I think we're falling behind in the crafting scene. Emberly's wreath is still hanging on our kitchen door!
was there not a craft that can be fashioned out of white glue? I seem to remember something about that from my childhood. And remembering that it is amazing.
