Candles of packing carton
Trees of fir (appendix, cards)
These pretty fir trees are made of packaging material. The cardboard is already black on one side and is suitable for making these trees. Paints small fir trees and cuts them out with scissors.
On the black side you embellish the trees with a white paint pencil. Paint patterns, candles, balls or chains of lights on the fir trees.
You can use these fir trees for a Christmas card, as a gift pendant or as a decoration pendant for a branch.
Very much, how easy this crafting is!
Fir trees for the window
These fir trees are quickly crafted with children and they look particularly individual and original due to their different sizes and shapes. Even younger children can paint and cut the triangles for the fir trees. Tree trunks in different lengths can be easily glued afterwards.
Tip: A few dark green trees are set highlights and loosen up the overall picture of the tree rows.
Have fun trying it out!

Candles for the window
You can create a beautiful Christmas window with these candle templates. Paint large candles or print out a template and paint them with colorful colors. Then cut out the candles with the scissors and brush the back of the candles with oil. Wipe off the excess oil with a kitchen crepe and place the candles to dry. You can now hang the candles with adhesive strips on a window. The light shimmering through the paper makes the Christmas window or Advent window beautifully colorful.

Make a nice packaging for small gifts. Print motifs on butterbread bags and paint them colorfully. To close the bags you use a clothespin. In the blink of an eye, beautiful packaging for Christmas, the Advent season or the winter is created. Have fun!
Napkin rings (many templates)
Children want to help prepare each meal or small party. A napkin is quickly placed on the plate, but with a self-designed napkin ring, the table decoration looks individual. Here you will find some templates for printing, colouring and cutting out. Have fun!
The napkin rings are suitable, for example, for a birthday, for Christmas or New Year's Eve.
Younger children will probably need some support, while schoolchildren can already make the napkin rings completely self-employed.
