Ho!Ho!Ho! Christmas is here! We celebrate Christmas all around the world with sweets, cakes and merry making carols. Kids celebrate Christmas in good faith to meet their Santa uncle and receive gifts from them.
And obviously the snowy feel, the beautiful and colorful decorations and the ornamental Christmas tree, all of them enliven in us the X-mas merry making spirit!
Here’s a beautiful DIY that you can make with your kids or younger siblings for this Christmas. It’s easy, quick and fun!

- Fake snow
- Glitter flakes or simple glitter powder
- Kids Christmas toys (Tree, Santa miniature or anything that you like)

**You can find all of the above stuff easily in a art and craft store or try buying it online with e-commerce stores such as eBay, blitsy.
Procedure :
