If you're trapped stuck inside because of the dreadful weather outside, how about some Christmas crafting to keep yourself occupied? I thought I'd gather together a few of the pretty christmassy tutorials I've seen around the blogging world.
There are Christmas baubles made from fabric;
Fabric Baubles from Martha Stewart.
A pretty mitten ornament available as a free PDF download from Oliver + S
I saw this on Domesticali's blog - a paper pinecone.
Isn't that effective?
Mini stockings, another pretty idea from Marta Stewart. This would be good to make with children, probably occupy them for ages ... you can hope:)
A little more felt fun ...
Aren't they lovely?
If you've a bit more time on your hands, how about personalised placemats to add some festive cheer to your Christmas table?
Personalised Placemats from the Moda Bakeshop.
A lovely fabric chain. These look like fun to make.
I've made these paper ornaments for a few years now... in each years Christmas colour theme. I love them, they're not hard to make but they create a bit of an impact.
You'll find the downloadable instructions here
How about a Christmas stocking? Everyone needs one of those don't they ?
There is a free PDF pattern and instructions for this available from Denyse Schmidt's website.
or these from Tanya Whelan of Grand Revival Designs. These are linked off on the right sidebar and come with pattern pieces and instructions.
What are you decorating your home with this Christmas time?
