Our Christmas Decoration’s
Making the decorations
First we needed to design and plan our decorations and decide what materials we would use for the wooden decoration of the Welsh dragon. After, we decided to use paint for our welsh dragon and glitter glue. We had three design sheets to colour in Welsh dragons with different designs.
What we will do
We are making Christmas decorations to send to other country’s. We have got a welsh dragon template to decorate how we want. We have covered the dragon neatly with red paint and glitter glue.
Decorations in Wales
In Wales we have some specific decorations that have a Welsh theme like the welsh dragon or it might say “Nadolig Llawen!” on it. We sometimes have stockings and hang them over the fireplace.
These are some decorations
