Christmas is Coming!!

by - Sunday, November 04, 2012

After All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day it's time for Christmas. I can't wait for the cold breeze and the positive aura that December brings. To start it off early, I made a very simple craft for the coming holidays.

It's a simple and easy wall decor you can use anywhere. Perfect for Christmas crafts you can do at home.


Materials needed:
-pieces of cut out cardboard or used folders
-scissors
-pencil and eraser
-glue
-glitters
-poster paints
-paint brush




How to:
Trace and cut out as many  Christmas shapes you want. Christmas trees are perfect. You can also cut out stars,  Santa Claus, shape sleigh bells, reindeer or just anything related to this season.




After that, paint the letters of Christmas on the middle of each shape. I used the word "PASKO" which is the Tagalog word for Christmas.


Spread glue on the sides of the letter evenly. Do not put too much cause it might crumple the cardboard if it's too wet. 


Sprinkle glitters on top. I used blue and you can use any color you opted. After all the glue was covered with glitters, hold the cardboard facing downwards and tap it twice so excess glitters would fall off. Let it dry.


 Next, a Christmas is incomplete if it doesn't have a star on top. So, I attached a Paper Star Origami on top and paint it yellow.  Let it dry.



And you're done! Attach it on your wall or punch a hole and use it as a garland. It's super easy right!!
