Re: Do you make Christmas decorations


I have made table centre pieces in the past......just a small wicker basket, an oasis tied into it and silk/artificial christmas flowers, holly and foliage arranged in it.....finally a couple of taper candles pushed into the oasis. You could use fresh flowers and holly as an alternative....

This site may give you a few ideas Kazz......http://www.christmasdecorations.info...TMAS_CENT.html

I have done in the past. I have a friend who owns a florist and I have helped out occasionally and picked up a lot of tips on how to make table decorations, wreaths etc etc but I am sooo behind with everything this year, I don't think that I will be making any decorations

Have done in the past. As the others say, a bit of Oasis and some pretty red ribbon and you're half way there.......................and if you pass a holly bush on your walks you get the rest at no cost!
