I have decided that this year my children shall make there own Decorations for the house and one small tree in the kitchen as the larger tree my husband says must be decorated with "normal decor" darn non pagans anyways.
So we have started with a craft a day for the month of December leading up to Yule.
First we made Luminaries out of cans, paint, a nail, and a hammer.
Next we made spell stars which proved much harder then the you tube video showed.
Then came popcorn garland for the tree, I was going to hang it outside but that didn't work out.
yesterday was Pomanders which are oranges and cloves rolled in cinnamon.
Today we will be making our own window frosting to decorate the windows.
Then Bird feeders from pine cones peanut butter and bird feed.
Next some bells from aluminum foil for the tree
Then Paper embroidered decor for the tree
After that we will roll some candles in gold glitter to light the night before yule
Then we will make Solstice cakes just for fun
Tue's the 11th we will make sun ornaments either from the same recipe as the stars or from salt dough
Wed. wheel of the year ornaments
Snowflakes and moon cookies on Thurs the 13th
Next will be Yule sachets
Then we will make Pine cone ornaments with pine or holly and ribbon all tied to pine cones
Sun. the 16th we will make bay ball ornaments for the tree
on the 17th we will go on a field trip to gather fun stuff for the yule log
next we will make marshmallow snow man for the tree
on the 19th we will make the yule log by putting all the decorations on it
on the 20 we will make sun cookies
the 21st is yule the winter solstice when we will burn the log eat the sun cookies and sing carols while also having a feast,
every week we will learn a new pagan friendly carol and at some point in there we will make cookies for our family and neighbors.
Hmm sounds busy when you list it like that. But is should be a memorial month for the kids.
Blessed Be Every one.
