Kids Crafts Jingle Bells Making Christmas
Decorations
Let the bells chime for Christmas with these decorative bells.
Materials needed:
Small terracotta plant pot
Paint
Small jewels
Gold glitter
Craft glue
Gold cord
Gold ribbon
1 Jingle bell
Scissors
Paint the entire plant pot in your choice of colour (although red or green
is more Christmas) and leave to dry. Glue a strip of gold ribbon around the
rim. Glue on the jewels. Apply glue to your bell and sprinkle with the glitter,
shaking off the excess.
Thread the jingle bell onto the gold cord. Tie a large knot above the jingle
bell so that when you put the cord with the jingle bell inside the pot, it will
not go through the hole in the bottom of the pot. Pull the cord from the inside
of the pot up through the hole in the bottom. Leave a loop in the cord to hang.
Now make a large bow using the gold ribbon and tie it to the gold cord.
Other ideas
Draw a snowman on to your bell and cover it with cotton wool and use small
black buttons for the eyes and buttons down his front.
Make a miniature snowflake from white paper and glue to the painted bell.
Apply glue to the whole bell and dip it into glitter.
