YAMF Holiday Handmade is sponsored by Kollabora, the community for makers.

I had so much fun getting the safari animals into the spirit of things, I decided the forest friends needed to be festive too.


To make your own you’ll need:
- toy animals
- craft poms
- wire/pipe cleaners
- knit gloves
- ribbon
- mini wreaths (in the Christmas village section)
- hot glue gun

To make ear muffs: trim wire or pipe cleaner, bend to shape and hot glue to poms. Attach to ears with hot glue (it peels right off when you’re done).

To make a mini hat: cut the tip of the finger off a glove and hot glue a mini pom on top.

These are currently sitting on top of my dresser and I laugh every time I see them.
