Over two hundred photos and drawings illustrate these easy-to-follow directions for making scores of Christmas decorations and ornaments out of materials that you can find around the house, Children, as well as adults will be able to follow them to make a wide variety of holiday tree-hangers, jewelry, and other decorations. Children will especially enjoy making animals and buildings for an entire Christmas village, Both youngsters and their parents will be intrigued with Margaret Perry’s recommendations for making Christmas wrappings and posters with cut-out figures from last year’s Christmas greeting cards. The more ambitious Christmas craftsmen can make mobiles of floating fish, flying birds, Christmas balls, and angels.

Every homemaker will find fresh ideas for her window, doorway, and table, in CHUSTMAS MAGIC. Also included in this profusely illustrated handbook are complete directions for making an Advent calendar and a detailed chapter on making Christmas pins and earrings out of evergreens, cranberries, bells, and glitter.
