Christmas Crafty Bits Part 3 - Painted Pebbles and Paper Mache Snowflakes

34
This week The Princess and I have been painting pebbles and making sparkly stars and snowflakes!

We collected some smooth, large, round pebbles and painted them white, then painted a letter on each to spell 'Christmas'.  All we used was poster paint, plus a little glitter glue on top of the letters to make them sparkle!

To make our paper mache stars and snowflakes, we mixed together some water and pva glue with small pieces of torn scrap paper and molded the mushy mixture into shape using printed templates.  We left them to dry overnight, then cut them out and painted them silver, adding more glitter of course!  We arranged ours on the tree, but they would also look lovely hanging from the ceiling or window.




















If you missed Part 1 we made a Winter Nature Scene
and in Part 2 we made a Snowscene Shoebox
