Have a Vintage Christmas with Simply Vintage

This week Melissa is launching the very special Vintage Festive Craft Pack exclusive to Hochanda!

Here is a sneak preview of some of the lovely Christmas decorations that can be created using the pack.  This selection is created using the music sheets as inspiration:


Christmas Tree Frame

Using just a sheet of the vintage music, a lovely piece of the fabric, ribbon and a few buttons from the kit, plus an old (or new!) frame, this delightful Christmas picture will take pride of place on any festive fireplace!






A Lollypop Tree

Another tree or window decoration - or even to make a present extra special!

A great way to re-cycle the lolly sticks and just a quarter of a page of the music sheets included in the pack.

Take three strips of the music, and cut down in decreasing lengths, fix to the lolly stick, add a button at the top to make it sparkle. To finish it off stick some of the sparkle trim to the back to make a hanger.




Music Bauble

A quick and easy tree decoration, from just five strips of the music in the pack plus some of the trim to make a hanger and a sprinkle of glitter - voila a pretty decoration fit for any tree!

Try making a few and hang them at different heights from the top of a window frame.

Here's just one of the projects Lotte will be showing this week...  Step 1. Half two 2.5cm wide paper star strips. Now only use three of the four paper star strips. Step 2. Double over each of the three paper star strips and cut all the ends at an angle. Put a star strip around another star strip and fold it tightly three times around this star strip. This is illustrated in the picture. Repeat this process with the other two star strips. Step 3. Assemble the three paper star strips over and under each other, forming three double le
