Jubilee’s Christmas Crafting

This year Jubilee is loving Christmas crafts. It is really fun since she can do so many more things than she could last year. I have only done a few with her so far. A few weeks ago we made these salt dough ornaments so that we could get some off in the mail to some very special grandparents:

Today I drew a triangle on a piece of paper for Jubi and she colored it in and then glued some colorful squares to it for ornaments

Then we did a big project. I have a bunch of cardboard rectangles that I punched holes in. Then I grated some red and green crayons. Jubi sprinkled the shavings onto the cardboard and covered them with wax paper. Then I ironed them to melt the crayon. Then we peeled off the wax paper, covered them with glue stick, and stuck on letters that I had cut out yesterday. After the abundance of glue was dry (gluing is really one of Jubilee’s favorite things to do), she helped thread some yarn through the holes. Then she and Daddy hung up our banner and posed for a picture:Merry Christmas!!

Ooo, very creative! And I just can't get over how CUTE Jubilee is. That face...those curls... ADORABLE!! Can't wait to see her (and you guys!) in real life sometime in the hopefully-not-too-distant-future!

I love the Christmas crafts! I think Jubilee will be talented like her mom....
It looks likes Jubilee's hair is getting longer and thicker--it must be from the heat and sunshine there
Have a Merry Christmas!
