These are the snowflakes that I made from the directions you posted. The smaller ones are made from coloured post-it notes (was quiet at work during Christmas), and the bigger ones were made from magazine pages. We still have these up over the telly -they're cheerful and they twirl with the air currents :o)

Bump for 2010.

Some great ideas here.

Another good idea for a Christmas Wreath is to get a styrofoam ring, cost 1.50euro. (or make a strong ring out of old material) then wrap old wool all round it until its completely covered, hairy wool is better. Add a loop for hanging it up and a small decoration at the bottom. I made loads of these for our Christmas Fair in work and they sold like hot cakes. If I could only get the knack of uploading photos!!!

A simple craft for small kiddies - you need pine cones,Glue, bottle tops and some spray paint. Just spray the cone, glue the cone into the bottle top and it makes a cute table decoration. Add some glitter when spray paint is wet.

I love the ideas everyone has posted. I'll be keeping info on them to use for next years Fair.

I don't know if Paprika has told you the exact measurements for those two abbreviations yet. 1 Dekagram equals 10 grams, 1 Deciliter equals 100 milliliters. In Austria these measurements are still being used! :-)

Lovely ideas here, by the way!
At some stage I have to share my picture(s) of an Advent calendar which is shaped as a teapot...now it's too late for those things, anyway! :-D

Happy Christmas to all of you!
