It may be a bit late but wanted to share my Christmas creations with you while we are all in the seasonal mood. I made this little tree back in June, I can’t remember why I did it then , I think I just had a bit of time between projects and wanted to make an effort to be prepared for the holiday season.
These lovely little snowflakes were made last year and it was such a delight to get them out again. A simple pattern and quick and easy to make. I sprayed on some starch to stiffen them up too which worked really well.
Lastly, some festive bunting, looks quite good on the tree don’t you think?

I love love love the vase with the twigs and snowflakes! I might just have to do that next year myself!

Thank you, using twigs is something my Mum used to do when we were little so I have always done it too. I like the idea of bringing a bit of the outside indoors. They look good paint sprayed too.

It was lovely to look at your work. I have never used starch but always wanted to, i am writing it on my shopping list right now!

It was the first time I have ever used it too. It worked well and stiffened the snowflakes nicely and has also survived a year of being packed away.

Very nicely done! Last year I got it into my head to crochet ‘popcorn & berry’ garland for my tree – it looked OK, but on reflection, I should have crocheted the popcorn & berries closer together – oh well . . .LOVE your snowflakes! They look really cute (I bought mine at a garage sale; I’m not the greatest crocheter!)

Oooh your popcorn and berry garland sounds fun. Snowflakes are quite easy to do, the pattern is from attic 24 if you fancy having a go.
