The cards are coming in and you can hang them around the
house on string, set them on the mantles, or make something to hold them with
the kids! The kids will love that they
get to make something to hold the well wishes and cheer that people send you,
plus if anyone visits you can tell them their card is housed in this special
kid created holder to be pulled out and re-read for the memories whenever you
want!
You need:
Empty milk carton
Red paint
Glue
Cotton balls
Start with an empty milk carton. Rinse it out really good and cut off the top
leaving the handle still attached. Now,
wipe off the inside and dry again. Now,
put on the paint shirts, hand over the brushes and paint the carton red!!! Let this dry, clean up the kids and have them
start unrolling cotton balls.
Once dry, have them dab the length of the cotton ball in
glue and starting from the edge of the opening, near the handle, put cotton
around the entire opening. Next, near
the top of the handle (closest to the opening), around the handle itself glue
one unrolled cotton ball. Let dry and
admire your, upside down Santa Hat Card Holder!!!
Simple, fun, and festive, you don’t have to clutter your
mantle with cards anymore!
