[Ad- gifted product] I really love the look of little Christmas trees, and making them out of twine makes a sort of rustic, lovely looking tree that looks great on a fireplace, on your TV stand or wherever else you want to add some festive cheer. These little trees were super easy to make and quite fun to work on. They don’t need a whole lot of materials so you can totally work on them last minute as a centre piece.

[Ad- gifted product] Snow Globe ornaments are one of the oldest ornaments in the book. I always enjoyed making little snow globes with my family, as there are so many different ways to make them. These globes require just a few basic crafting supplies and just serve as inspiration for making your own, as you can also bring your own twist to the craft.

[Ad- gifted experience] As the Holiday season is upon us, Viking, an office supplier in the United Kingdom, invited a bunch of us bloggers to a Christmas Crafts event. I went along with Claire (who wrote up a lovely post herself) and Dann.
When it comes to Christmas Crafts, I know of quite a few. I expected some sort of Christmas Card to be made, maybe an ornament of some kind – but Viking really blew me away with the event and the crafts featured. Once we got to the Shoreditch Tree House, a fantastic venue that looked much like an open garden, with a large table in the middle, we were met with loads to eat and drink.

At times, it can get sort of same-ish, so finding new ways to use up the giant bottles of paint I got off of Amazon is always welcomed. One of my favorite ways of painting combines bubbles and colorful paint into a great bubble painting project. This is something I did as a kid at school in art class, so it’s pretty cool to be showing it off.
Kai has a lovely Minecraft themed room. This has come about through him picking the theme and loads of things being selected for the room, to make it the best Minecraft world possible. All that was missing was a Minecraft Dresser.
Vinyl stickers that look like holes into the world of Minecraft litter his walls, the windows are covered in similar stickers that make them look like glass blocks. His curtains, bedding and lamp shade all dawn the same green checkered pattern like the top of a grass block. He’s got a redstone torch, a little blue Minecraft sheep and many other little details. One thing that we couldn’t really find for sale was a Minecraft dresser.
