The Yuletide season requires loads of planning,
conceptualizing and decorating, making it a good time of
year for families to bond and spend quality time with each
other. Every member of the family will get a chance to
contribute to decorating the home, and everyone will have a
say in the theme that will inspire the Christmas
decorations. So if you happen to be a cat lover, then your
favorite pet may also make a cool contribution to your
Christmas experience. Imagine your Christmas theme this
year with a touch of the felines. Your cat will definitely
have that quizzical look on her elegant face as she sees
the entire kitty inspired features of your Christmas
decorations.
Starting with the Christmas tree, the best possible way to
give it a cattish feel is by trimming it with Christmas cat
ornaments to give the whole tree a cat inspired theme. You
can easily find Christmas cat ornaments for sale in the
department stores or better still, how about making your
own Christmas cat ornaments to add a more personal touch to
your tree? And what better way of making your own Christmas
cat ornaments than doing it with your kids! All you need
are some handy materials, cutting tools, painting sets and
sheer creativity.
One problem you may find is when your cat gets really
curious about all those enticing cat Christmas baubles and
cat Christmas bells hanging on the tree. I for one actually
do not find this to be a problem, and I enjoy seeing my
feline friend exquisitely playing with the Christmas tree
decorations - as long as she does not try to eat the
Christmas lights of course. But if you have a problem with
this sort of cat behavior, I have the right Christmas cat
ornament for you.
This Christmas, cat decorations that you can make with your
children will not only liven up your Christmas tree, but
also warn you when your cat starts playing with them. This
is how it's done: first of all, you will need some empty
plastic Easter eggs, wire in a variety of different colors,
some small bells, paints, wire cutters, sheets of felt,
glue, glitter, and a small drill or a push pin. Then you
need to cut the plastic Easter eggs into halves, and put
some designs onto them using the paint, shapes cut from
felt, glue and glitter. Just remember to make sure that
your design is appropriately cattish. You can draw cats,
kittens or anything that has something to do with cats on
your halved plastic Easter eggs. When you have done this,
put your masterpieces on one side to dry, and start cutting
the wire into lengths of three to four inches. You can then
twist-tie the colorful wires onto your bells. After doing
this, your painted egg halves will probably be dry, so you
can now put a hole in the top of each one using the small
drill, or by heating a push pin in a flame and then
pressing the heated point through the top of the egg.
You can then put the wires with the bells on them through
the holes. Loop the end of the wire around your finger and
twist tie it to the base. You then have your cat Christmas
bells ready for hanging. After putting them up, you can all
appreciate the team effort, and when you hear the bells
ringing, the culprit is on the loose.
