 Glittering Gift Jewelry Christmas Craft for Kids |
What You'll Need:
Corrugated cardboard
Pencil
Scissors
String
Glue
Gold and silver foil
Flat-backed colored glass gems
Jewelry pin backings
Tape
Thin wire
Gold cord
Draw and cut circles, hearts, Christmas trees, and star shapes out of cardboard. Drizzle glue on the shapes, and lay string in tight spirals or circles on the glue. Let the glue dry for several hours. Cover each shape with silver or gold foil, and glue it down in the back. Rub the foil so the string pattern shows through.
Glue on jewels in attractive designs. If you are making pins, glue a pin backing onto the back of each shape. If you want to make a medallion, tape a loop of thin wire onto the back of the shape. Thread gold cord through the loop to make a necklace.
Settle in front of the Christmas tree because it's time to write a story. Continue to the next page to learn how to write Santa's Story.
