Christmas Decorations

I am going to World Scout Jamboree next year and so I need to fundraise (it may be fun, but not cheap).  To raise some funds I am making mats and christmas tree decorations to sell at my church and after cub meetings.  Using lovely glittery threads I can make some lovely shiny decorations, which are quite firm without any starching.

The people I have shown them to have liked them and they do make a nice alternative to the normal balls.  They can also be put on tables or hung in windows.  I shall see how the sales go.  Either way I have enjoyed making them, and adapting patterns to make them.   They also have the advantage of being squashable and unbreakeable unlike glass balls, very nice when children are around or when packing away.
