Julehygge

December 2--Advent at ADAFT 2015!

Danish Christmas decorations often involve folded and/or cut paper. For example, julestjerner or julehjerter. 

E and I really like folding Christmas stars. It's repetitive and relaxing. Every year, though, we have to re-learn how to do it, which means that the first few times are a bit rough.

We're less expert on Christmas hearts. So, when we're in the mood, we have to refer to our favorite-ever instructions. Here is the text:

"You du have needs of thinly shiny Paper, by two colours. You do fold they and do outline a square and a halv semicircle, on them. Do Cut it (square + semicircle) out by a DOUBLE layer of paper. By the semicircle opposite to the fold.

 1. Do cut strip in the square, but little in the semicircle. Do not to many strips, and the strips have needs to been little longer as the square.

2. 3. Do woven the strops inside and on the outside each other (not up, not down)

4. Do glue the handle on.

We got our Christmas tree today! C is really excited about it (enough to immediately learn how to say "tree"!), and couldn't wait to decorate it.
