As we nudge towards December, we're busying ourselves at London for Kidz HQ with all things festive. We've got our home made advent calendar ready to rock and roll, we've ordered the tree, and now we're adding to our merry mood by making a few DIY Xmas decorations of our own...
Pine cone elves
If, like us, your kids have picked up 80 billion pinecones on your recent autumn strolls, then get yours-elf over to Lia Griffith for the lowdown on how to make those cute pinecone elves (pictured above).
Toilet roll Santa
It's no secret that we love a loo roll craft, so we can't wait to roll out our rolls and get busy making Santa out of cardboard. Sleigh-ride over to CBC Parents to find out how to make the magic happen.
Tinsel wreath
Tinsel is, let's face it, THE staple ingredient when it comes to Xmas decs, so we think jazzing it up a bit by transforming it into a wreath, is a shiny kinda idea. Head over to Craft my World for the full tinsely deets.

The blingier the better, we say, when it comes to these fir-tastic paper trees by ikat bag.
