Cindy Woo was Snowflakes Christmas present last year (2009) - she loves her pet bunny rabbit

Last Christmas we got Little Snowflake a baby dwarf bunny rabbit. Cindy Woo is part dwarf and part something else a bit of mixed bunny rabbit. In the video below you will see pictures of Cindy Woo in the snow (January 2010) with her little handmade bunny rabbit red Christmas lead, which I made out of an old red velvet top and black wool. Snowflake nagged me to make her little baby rabbit a lead! There is also a little video clip of Cindy Woo when she was just a little baby bunny rabbit, so cute. And of course at the end of the video you will see a very sweet silk painting of Cindy Woo in the snow created by little child artist Snowflake.



Here is little Snowflake and her pet bunny rabbit Cindy Woo (our snow bunny.) We made a snow bunny last year and a snow cat.


I have just finished making Snowflakes dress from an old white ballet dress. I used her paper snowflakes as a pattern to create pretty snowflakes that float at the bottom of the dress. Will upload a video or pictures later this week.

For now I have to get my act together as she wants a big Toothless the Dragon toy. I only have a week to make one without her knowledge. And I have to change a Zhu Zhu Pet toy into Cindy Woo our pet bunny rabbit as they don't sell a black rabbit Zhu Zhu pet toy yet. I have written to them so with some fairy luck who knows Cindy Woo may become famous. Wish me luck!

Snowflake child artist sings Little Snowflake song in the snow - no school today (17.12.10)

Here is child artist Little Snowflake with her Snowflake mask on in the snow singing her Little Snowflake song. I created the Little Snowflake song to promote her art and crafts. Snowflake would rather stay at home with me than go to school, but today was toy day so she was a little disappointed there was no school!



Little Snowflake made a tortoise snowflake, don't you think this snowflake is one of a kind (OOAK.) Ok it was no doubt a total fluke, but lets face it for her age she is amazing at art and crafts.


Here is a video of Little Snowflake making a tiny baby snowflake and helping her friend Finn. The big Snowflake on her head is one she also made herself. These two children make an amazing double act. If I had the money I would create a tv show with them doing art and crafts.



I took a picture of Finn when he was four and I think you will agree he looks like a little boy version of James Dean. The leather jacket, motorbike and amazing blond hair, he just looks so cool! I am totally shocked that Kinder Egg did not pick him for their add through the Mark Jermin Stage School. They wanted someone cheeky, cute and chatty which cries out Finn! What do you think?



Today was great fun, we went up to Hendy where my friends friend lives and slid down his very large hill. We all got covered in snow, and the children had a ball. I cannot remember seeing so much snow in the UK for years. Who knows we may get a White Christmas!

Christmas Party booking - know the Terms and Conditions re cancellation by colleagues, which are meant to be common law and businesses do not have to tell you about!


I am going to make this short but sweet. If you organise your Christmas Party for your work colleagues, make sure you get the full money up front before going ahead with the booking (never mess around with deposits,) that includes the taxi fare.

Things happen, you cannot help health problems, but sadly venues do not see this and the law is on their side. Ask the venue for their Terms and Conditions, so you can show them in black and white that if they cannot attend for any reason they will lose all their money! 

Trading Standards told me I should know the law. Well not only did I not know the law, but neither did any of my work colleagues or their husbands who are quite high up in the Council. We were all of the opinion that they would lose their deposit, but not have to pay for the whole meal due to illness. A business is just that and should make things clear when booking a Christmas Party etc, it saves little people being treated like a doormat! So if any businesses read this, and you want returning customers, make sure you make it very clear that once booked there is not going back and money will not be refunded!

On a funny note did you know that Mr Lazy PJ's for men have all sold out. There must be a lot of lazy men out their, I've got one of them, te he. I prefer to call mine Lazy X Box, what do you call yours?

How to make a foam Snowman Christmas tree decoration with little Snowflake child artist - Xmas arts and crafts for children

There is nothing more special for a child than to decorate the Christmas tree and make their very own special Christmas decorations. Here is little child artist Snowflake showing children how to make a cute little foam Snowman tree decoration.



Foam is a brilliant material for children to cut and make things with. Snowflake has not even used patterns for the Snowman, all cut out by hand, completely off the cuff craft idea. The Cindy Woo tree decoration was created using her drawing.


Hopefully we will get to upload the video of Snowflake singing her Little Snowflake song. I am just working on the snowflakes for her dress.

Here are some pictures of her handmade foam tree decorations:




Have fun this Christmas with your children, kids love arts and crafts and make happy memories.
