Don’t let Christmas money problems ruin your good time. Fun, inexpensive craft projects, not only make for some great memories to share with your children, but can also supply you with some very special holiday decorations.
1. Simple pieces of construction paper, or even printer paper can readily be made into personalized placemats, or place cards. Even very young children can create these, and each person will have a lovingly crafted art work awaiting them at the table.
2. Have a tree decorating party with your kids. Gather supplies such as, cardboard, construction paper, glue, glitter, sequins, buttons, feathers, pinecones, string, ribbon, toilet paper/paper towel tubes and pipecleaners, whatever you have around the house, that looks interesting, will do. Let the kids go wild!
3. Older kids can handsew their own holiday character pillows. Proudly display the result, imperfection and all, that’s the charm of it.
