I don’t know about you, but I love decorating for Christmas. And the best Christmas decorations are the ones we make at home. This month on our weekly blog posts, I’m listing some Christmas craft videos I’ve found on YouTube that will be fun for you and your children to make.
Each week will have a theme, and I’m trying to have videos at different age/skill levels. And I’ve selected videos that are around 5 minutes in length. If you’re like me, you rarely have an hour to spend watching a tutorial video. These ones are short and sweet, but they still show some excellent projects.
This week’s theme is Paper Snowflakes. I remember making these all the time when I was growing up. Mine were pretty basic, but the craft has come a long way since I was a boy. I hope you’ll enjoy making some of these snowflakes and hanging them around your house this holiday season.
First is an easy project for younger children:
