Jelka sa dugmićima - Christmas button tree

U izradi ovih jelkica su podjednako dobro mogle da učestvuju i dvogodišnjakinja i šestoipogodišnjakinja, što se ne događa baš često. I to sa minimumom mog uplitanja :)

Dakle, potrebno vam je sledeće:

• penasta guma, filc, hamer, karton ili nešto slično
• dugmići raznih oblika i veličina (preporučujemo da pretražite bakinu zalihu)
• lepak
• trakica

Gotova jelkica može da posluži kao ukras za jelku, a možete je i zalepiti na karton i napraviti čestitku.

Both my two-year-old and my six-and-a-half-year-old equally enjoyed this activity, with minimum imput on my side, which does not happen often :)

You will need the following:

• craft foam, felt, thicker paper, cardboard or something similar
• buttons in different shapes and sizes (I recommend going through grandma's stash)
• some glue
• some string

You can use the finished tree as a Christmas tree decoration or put it on a piece of cardboard and make a Christmas card.

 

Porodična jelka - A Family Christmas Tree

Saradnja među blogerima je divna stvar! Putem ovog bloga upoznala sam autorku bloga Mama, hoćemo nešto da pravimo i započela je super saradnja. Jednom prilikom mi je M. rekla da je u prodavnici u svojoj blizini naišla na penastu gumu i da se setila mene, te se ponudila da mi kupi nekoliko komada i pošalje. Zahvaljujući mojoj prezauzetosti, a i obilju ideja u vezi sa ovim materijalom, tek sada smo stigli da ga iskoristimo (zajedno sa šljokicama koje su takođe bile u paketu).

Iako smo samo Ema i ja pravile ove jelkice (više Ema nego ja), praktično su učestvovali svi članovi porodice, makar time što su nam ostavili otisak svoje šake. Jelke možete da okačite na svoju pravu novogodišnju jelku kao ukras, da ih zalepite na čestitku i tako ih poklonite nekom, da ih zalepite na ulazna vrata (mi smo onu najveću, sa četiri šake, zalepili na vrata stana) i još mnogo toga. Sve što vam je potrebno je šaka, olovka, makaze, penasta guma (mada možete upotrebiti i filc ili hamer ili kolaž papir), lepak, šljokice i to je to!

 

 



 Cooperation between bloggers is a wonderful thing! During my blogging, I have met a fellow blogger (Mom, let's make something), a very creative mother of two. She came accross these craft foam sheets in a nearby store and thought of me. She offered to send me a few sheets and a some glitter, but due to my busy life and the huge quantity of ideas with this material, they remained unused until now.

 

Even though only me and Ema (well, mostly Ema) worked on this project, the whole family was involved in a way, even though only by leaving a handprint. You can use these Christmas trees as ornaments for your big Christmas tree, you can glue them on a sheet of paper and make Christmas cards, you can use them to decorate your flat, or glue them to your front door (as we did with the biggest one, with all four handprints). All you need are some handprints, a few sheets of craft foam (you can also use fleece, cardboard or whatever you like), scissors, glue, glitter and that's it!
