A Couple of Christmas Crafts Projects For a Perfect Winter Afternoon Family Activity

Christmas is the most suitable enjoyed with all the simplest of things such as spending some quality time with the family. This year, why not just do that? Gather the family around, get yourself some holiday music and earn Christmas crafts together. Everyone will like a great family activity plus you should use the crafts you make a part of your holiday home decorations.
Here are 2 simple Christmas crafts you possibly can make:
6-pointed Paper Snowflakes
What you will need:
 Paper Scissors
Steps:
1. Start with a square small note. A regular-sized paper (8 A� x 11inches) makes 2 snowflakes so cut the paper in half and form a square from each half. If it's your first time for you to create a snowflake, you need to use the complete paper to rehearse with.
2. Fold your square diagonally to generate a triangle.
3. Make a smaller triangle by folding the greater triangle by 50 %.
4. Look at the small triangle in thirds then fold the left and the right thirds over.
5. To make the 6 points in the snowflake, cut the top from the triangle off with an angle.
6. Cut away the edges from the triangle in different shapes and variations. Use your imagination just for this.
7. Once you have your snowflake ready, you are able to decorate it with paint or glitters to incorporate an original effect.
Snowman Ornaments
What you'll need:
 A clean, used baby sock Small part of felt (1 A� x 5 inches) Tipped markers White String Cotton Balls Paint
Steps:
1. Mix paint and water right into a small bowl. You can use any color that you want to the snowman's hat.
2. Dip 1/3 with the sock's open end into the mixture. Be sure to wring off excess liquid hence the color won't spread towards the rest with the sock.
3. Set the sock aside and let it dry thoroughly.
4. Once the paint is dry, stuff some cotton balls in the sock's toe until it can be 1/3 filled. Use a string to secure the cotton balls into place. Repeat this step and make another snowball below the very first.
5. Take the small little bit of felt and wrap it around in which the 2 snowballs meet to form a scarf.
6. Draw a face for the snowman for finishing touches.
Sounds fun, don't you think? Everyone inside your family will truly enjoy making these easy Christmas crafts. A great way to spend more time your children and have them looking forward to it.
