Home-Made Christmas

Unpacking the Christmas decorations, putting up the tree, and decorating the house is always an exciting time. And nestling, hidden somewhere in the corner of a box or bottom of a bag, is some forgotten favorite that revives memories of Christmasses past.

Traditionally, decorations were always handmade using materials that could be found around the house and gleaned from nature. And it's still immensely satisfying to make your own. Children love to help, and making decorations and gifts is a wonderful way to fill the days of anticipation.

You'll find most of the projects in this book require only the most basic skills, so everyone can have a go with guaranteed success! The joy of Christmas decorations is that they're not meant to be masterpieces. They're fun, they're quick, they can even be kitsch, but en masse, they're always beautiful. This book has 35 projects and ideas to get you started--use them, adapt them, develop your own. Because when it comes down to it, the best of home-made is that it's an expression of yourself.

*35 easy-to-make projects, from tree decorations to table settings, from advent calendars to wreaths for the door.

*Making Christmas decorations is hugely popular and adds a wonderful personal touch to the festive period.

*Full-color step-by-step instructions and helpful techniques.
