Christmas crafts...kind of

Olivia is not quite old enough to appreciate her mother's exceptional craftiness (that is supposed to be funny); however, she is lately in particular need of one on one time. So, we made some garland. Because I am not a perfectionist, the shapes are free-handed and look somewhat like what they were intended to look like. (Well, is there such a thing as an impatient perfectionist? I might be one of those.) I cut and she colored and Joseph tolerated us.
You can't see her favorite one - the gingerbread man - who, sadly enough, looks much better than the cookies we made a few weeks ago.

Joe looks enthused... He thinking, "If i could get out of this chair i'd be playing some golf or something instead of "doing crafts" with some silly girls."

I think your freehand garland looks good.

Were the snowflakes a bust or did they work out? Craft time is great, so fun for kids!
