Christmas is the time when we gather with loved ones to be merry. But family catch-ups and parties start to plateau when the interesting conversation and joyful banter runs out – right?
Instead of tuning in to another Christmas TV special when the fun dries up, why not pick up some art-making tools (and maybe salvage some gift wrapping before it goes in the bin?) and fill your free hours with art-making adventures?
