Sequin Christmas Tree |
|
Anya hard at work |
Yesterday was supposed to be 'take Christmas photos' on our
advent calendar but I did a little swap-a-roonie and we did a Christmas craft instead. Anya's concentration waned after the first three rows of sequins but I encouraged her to keep going after a few breaks - I filled in her gaps, so it was a bit of a mummy/daughter project!
We bought two packets of sequins (maybe used a third of each pack), one small polystyrene cone and one packet of shirt pins (hardened and polished standard ball point by
Birch)... the pins incidentally made this a much more expensive craft than it should have been (I got them at Spotlight and I am sure there are cheaper ones out there). Push pins in through sequins onto your cone - that simple! Make sure you point the pins down the higher you get so they don't poke through.... ouch.

Our new little tree is keeping our nativity scene company - quite the juxtaposition :-)
