On the 10th day of Christmas

My true loves and I made snowflake ornaments.


I realized that I do enjoy doing things like this.
It really is a lot of fun.



Annika's creation


Hannah's cool tones.



I did this same project at school with Beckham's class.
This is what he came up with.





A Snowflake potpourri
I highly recommend this craft.
It was super easy prep and all are so individual.
Just like real snowflakes.

Today was another craft. We did it right after school. I was hoping to do it after dinner. But the kids saw what Beckham had done and wanted to do it straight away. This was so fun, and didn't last long enough for me. I could have sat there and made a dozen more.

This is one activity that I'm going to include every year in our 12 days of Christmas. I am planning on giving these ornaments to Brent's Mom and Grandmother, and every year after this.
