For Anya’s and Masha’s teachers, sweet Christmas gifts were prepared in the form of candy Christmas trees and chocolate sleighs.

Traditionally, you should congratulate your neighbors and friends on Christmas. Here are the postcards I made, this year using paper embroidery techniques.

I finished another Father Frost mouse according to a pattern from the internet as a New Year’s gift for my dad.

At Masha’s school, they organized a workshop for the children to decorate Christmas sweaters in preparation for Christmas. In the end, each child had a unique outfit made by their hands. I also helped the children a little with this difficult creative work. Here’s what Masha came up with.

I knitted a fairy mouse for Kumasi based on a pattern from the internet, because the upcoming year is her year according to the Eastern calendar. I hope that the five kittens don’t immediately tear that mouse apart.

Immediately after the Sinterklaas celebration, the school needs to be redecorated for Christmas.

As part of the game, as a surprise, Masha was supposed to give a gift to her classmate Rubin, who loves football. I bought the magazine he ordered and wrapped the gift in the form of a lamp with the jersey of a player from the Amsterdam club Ajax.

Our colleague is expecting a baby, so the colleagues decided to get her a gift and asked me to handle it. In the end, I made her a big candy dummy.

Today there was a masquerade party at my friend’s daughter’s place. I helped the girls decorate their masks. This is the beauty Masha came up with.
