There’s something truly special about a handmade Christmas. Among all the glitter and bustle, taking time to create something with your own hands brings a sense of calm and joy that no shop-bought decoration can match.

At The Crafty Kit Company, we believe that creativity is at the heart of a meaningful Christmas. Whether it’s a tiny felt robin for the tree, a cheerful snowman on the mantelpiece, or a cosy woolly wreath for the door, each handmade piece carries a little bit of love, time, and thoughtfulness.

That’s exactly what inspired our brand new book, 50 Festive Crafting Projects — a collection of our favourite seasonal makes from the past four years of our Advent Kits. Inside you’ll find a wonderful mix of projects, from adorable needle-felted animals to charming little decorations, all designed to be achievable and deeply satisfying to make.

Many of these projects were originally part of our sell-out Advent Kits, and each one has brought joy to thousands of crafters who spent December creating, relaxing, and reconnecting with their creativity. Now, you can enjoy them all in one beautifully designed book — perfect for dipping into whenever the mood to make strikes.

This Christmas, why not switch off the screens, pop on a festive playlist, and spend an afternoon crafting? You’ll find that a few mindful moments with wool and needle can transform the way you feel — turning stress into stillness, and to-do lists into treasured keepsakes.

50 Festive Crafting Projects is more than a book of makes — it’s a celebration of creativity, calm, and the simple pleasure of doing something by hand.

Made in Scotland with love, and filled with projects to make and treasure, it’s your invitation to craft a truly handmade Christmas.
