Christmas: Lollipop Reindeers



These are the Lollipop Reindeers we made last Christmas to give out to Jack's best friends in class.

Materials:
Brown paper/cards
Lollipop
Gold shimmering powder
Little Red Ribbon stickers
Marker pen
Pencil and Scissors

Step by step:
1. Fold the paper into half, then fold into half again.

2. Draw out half of the Reindeer's head using a pencil. The neck bit should be on the folding side. So when you open your cuttings, you will get two heads, one on top, and one at the bottom. When you fold them up together, it should resembles to the picture below. If you drew it the wrong way, you'll get two pieces seperated. 

  

2. Cut holes so you can fit the lollipop in.

 3. Draw the nose and mouth as pictured. I used shimmering powder for the horns.

4. Once done, fit the lollipop in and glue it together. Add on the ribbon below its mouth and you're done! You can add some Merry Christmas stickers behind and write To/From to give out to beloved friends.

Fruit Art: Tulips

I made this as I was going to Holland. April is the best time to see tulips. I visited Kenkeuhof and it was really easy to get to from Amsterdam via a combi ticket on their official website which includes transport and entrance ticket. There were over 3000 tulip varieties on exhibition and the view of the flower fields was absolutely breathtaking. Its definitely a place worth visiting.

These tulips below were made out of strawberries and the stalks are sping onions.


Fruit Art: Rabbits

I made these rabbits using red grapes.



Fruit Art: Goldfish
