Christmas decorations

make small wreaths from willow branches. strip the leaves from the branch and make circles by weaving the branch in and out around itself. about 10 to 12 cm circle. tie coloured foil ribbon on the bottom or tie ribbon and use scissors to curl. add small pinecones and other tiny dried pieces from the garden. tie a piece of foil ribbon at top and hang on tree.

use large pinecones that have opened. make small loops of coloured foil ribbon (green, red, silver etc) either the three colours together or individually. the loops need to be stapled to hold together then (hot) glue onto the open pinecone.
