Episode 5: A Fun and Simple DIY Nativity
We love to celebrate Christmas and believe in creating meaningful decor to help ring in the reason for the season. That is why we love this simple Nativity wreath. You can hang this wreath on your door or place it on a mantel. This is a great project in which you can have little helpers trace Nativity shapes, help place the moss on the wreath, and arrange the sisal trees. This will be a cherished craft you and your little ones can look at joyfully each season.

- Twig wreath form
- Assortment of Moss
- Wood textured paper
- Hot Glue Gun
- Sisal Mini Trees
