Anyway, 'tis the season to be crafting and today I've been on a Christmas creativity work shop. First we made a couple of cards
Then we made a pomander. I enjoyed doing this as I'd wanted to make one since I saw them on Blue Peter at least fifty years ago!
We made a pretty (fabric) gift bag and I'm now wondering just how to fill it.
And we also made some fairy lights which I didn't get finished and I'm not going to let you see them until I do!
I've had a lovely day and I'm going to have a lovely early night.
Lovely cards, there's nothing better than a day of crafting :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun filled day, there is nothing nicer than a craft day. The cards are a real delight and I loved the pomander, it will smell delicious as time goes by.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about those pomanders this week. At this time of the year, my mum's airing cupboard was fragrant with them! Maybe I'll have a go with the boys x
ReplyDeleteI really like the cards -- and I have always wanted to make one of those pomanders as well -- who knows, maybe I will get crafty too -- as soon as I finished the baby quilt I can't quite seem to find time to finish!
ReplyDeleteI'm not very good at crafts but pomanders I have made! In fact, I have a bowl of them that dates back at least 15 years and they still give off a (faint) scent. I imagine one could get oil of cinnamon and refresh them a little. Not oil of cloves though. Reminds one of toothache.
