Christmas

Tis’ the season to get crafty with our Christmas craft ideas. We will get you in the Christmas spirit with hundreds of activities to choose from.

Terracotta Pot Pine Cone Creature

  • Step 1Paint your terracotta pot. We have used red on the base and white around the rim to represent a Santa jacket.
  • Step 2Cut two pieces of red ribbon approximately 12cm long. Tie a knot in one end and thread a large bead onto each ribbon.
  • You may need more than one knot so that the bead does not slide off.
  • Step 4Glue or tape the ribbons into the inside of the pot. These are his arms so place one on each side.
  • Step 5Create a felt Santa hat using the template provided.
  • Step 6Glue hat together using fabric glue or a hot glue gun and attach a little piece of cotton wool or a small pom pom onto the end of the hat.
  • Step 7Place a pine cone into the pot and glue the hat on top of his head.
  • Step 8Attach large wiggle eyes and a red felt tongue to your critter, and draw on his black buttons with a marker. Your creature is now complete!
