Handmade Christmas Tree Decorations

Trish Seddon from Te Awamutu Museum

Handmade Christmas tree decorations can evoke memories of the special people who may have handcrafted them, even when they are no longer around.
We will use fabric scraps, recycled calendars and cards, buttons, as well as adding glittery sequins and beads for that extra bling.
Here’s an alternative opportunity to create a gift that will be treasured and yes year after year.

Aside from the fun you will have in making these decorations you are doing the world a power of goodness.
