It wouldn’t be Christmas without…
Copenhagen Crafternoon with my Danish Besties, Helene and Vibeke!
This year our Klippe Klistre Dag (Crafternoon) was hosted by Helene. Ably assisted by her cute pets!
Vibeke (who has the patience of a Saint…) walked us through folding a traditional Danish paper star. Eight long strips of paper. Twisted, folded and turned several times over. I’ve never got the hang of them!
But the Crafternoon is just as much about the food, candles and hygge!
I brought along a pot of minestrone soup (my Mum’s recipe) and then we enjoyed hot æbleskiver (Danish Christmas donuts) and warm gløgg (mulled wine). Plus some cookies and retro chocolates!
Vibeke started a new knitting project, Helene crocheted some “cotton makeup remover pads” and I made some beanie hat tree decorations.
Have you been “crafty” this month? Those Danish small folded stars are tricky. Once I’ve folded one, I feel like I’m done for the year, ha ha!
Have a fantastic day!
