December 5: Cotton figures

Throw yourself into ultimate creative fun moments and make your own vintage brocante Christmas decorations. At first glance, it looks like real vintage Christmas decorations, but these nice things are all made from newer things, or found at flea markets. The secret is to patina the materials in e.g. tea and coffee. The ornament we show you here is made by Monica from Germany.

If you have the courage to throw yourself into it, we can recommend the book "Creative Christmas" by Anno 1808. In the book you will also find other things, such as houses, snowmen and Christmas trees. There are recipes for each item at the back of the book. You can buy it, among other places here..
