STARLIGHT EXPRESS

1 Celebrate by starlight! Make these lovely large stars using plain cardstock and your gorgeous BHG Christmas paper. They’re quick and easy to construct by creating five 3D star points, then gluing them together.

MERRY AND BRIGHT

2 Craft a set of simple and stylish paper baubles for your Christmas tree – and anywhere else that needs a little extra seasonal cheer.

FAUX AND FABULOUS

3 Sprinkle these glorious handmade paper poinsettias all over your home and create an everlasting display that will impress everyone!

GOODIE BOXES

4 Cover a compact MDF drawer kit with our pretty Christmas paper and fill it with special notes and small treats for the lead-up to the big day. Your family will love it. Get started now!

GO CRACKERS!

5 It’s so easy to make your own Christmas crackers and customise them for each guest. A single bonbon filled with sweets would also be a thoughtful teacher gift. All instructions on page 180

WRAPPED WITH LOVE

6 Have fun wrapping up your gifts and finishing each one with a little card or decoration you made yourself. Nothing says love quite like handmade.
