Pass another piece of thread under the wrap and tie in a tight knot to secure the hank. Slide the threads off the card and use a pair of scissors to cut all the loops at the bottom to make a tassel. (pic b)

Pass the knotted threads through the hole in the wooden bead and pull so the tassel sits snugly up to the bead. Thread a mini metallic bead onto one side of the thread and knot tightly before passing the other thread back through the mini bead. (pic c)

Thread more mini metallic beads onto the two threads and knot tightly to make a ring of beads. Fit a keyring into the ring of beads. Trim up the base of the tassel if necessary. (pic d)

1. Use pens to colour in a wooden bead and leave to dry – why not use glitter paint pens to add sparkly detail to your keyring. Choose four or five colours of embroidery thread that coordinate with the bead.  Fold a small rectangle of card in half and wrap the threads around it several times. (pic a)

Keep looping the thread to make a hexagon shape and fasten off. Tie a different coloured thread to one loop and make a smaller hexagon inside this in the same way as before. Make a third, tiny hexagon in the very centre. Glue all the knots before trimming the ends closely. (pic b)

Take some self-adhesive felt and cut out letters to spell ‘MUM’. Fix each letter to a small circle of self-adhesive felt (in another colour??). Cut three 30cm lengths of thread and fold in half. Leaving a loop at the top fix the letters to the thread with another sticky felt circle. (pic c)

Thread the beads from the kit onto the ribbon and tie a feather at either end. Secure the knot with glue before pushing the beads down over the quills of the feathers. Fix the feathers and the letters to the ring with a larkshead knot (leave in?). Attach the keyring with the other piece of ribbon threaded with beads. (pic d)

3. Take some green self-adhesive felt and cut out letters to spell ‘MUM’. Fix each letter to a small circle of purple self-adhesive felt. Cut three 30cm lengths of thread and fold in half. Leaving a loop at the top, fix the letters to the thread using more sticky felt circles (try using a contrasting colour). (pic c)
4. Thread the beads from the kit onto the ribbon and tie a feather at either end. Secure the knot with glue before pushing the beads down over the quills of the feathers. Fix the feathers and the letters to the ring with a lark’s head knot. Attach the keyring with the other piece of ribbon threaded with beads. (pic d)

Draw a pattern of small blue bubbles on the wings with a Sharpie pen. Wrap some brown thread around your hand. Tie the hank around the middle and then cut the looped ends to make hair. Glue this to the top of the head, adding shorter pieces of thread as a fringe. (pic b)

When the glue has dried, move the hair out of the way and fill in the bubbles with a blue glitter pen. Draw a striped design down the dress of the fairy using a pink marker pen. (pic c)

Cut out an apron shape (stripes??) from felt and glue a rectangle of card to the front with ‘The Washing Up Fairy’ written on it. Cut a strip of self-adhesive felt and use this to fix the apron to the body of the fairy. (pic d)

1. Paint a wooden fairy with two coats of white acrylic paint. While this is drying cut out a small circle from pink self-adhesive felt and draw on a face using fine point marker pens. Fix the face to the head of the fairy. (pic a)
2. Draw a small blue bubble pattern of on the wings using a marker pen. Wrap some brown thread around your hand. Tie the hank around the middle and then cut the looped ends to make hair. Glue this to the top of the head, adding shorter pieces of thread as a fringe. (pic b)
3. When the glue has dried, move the hair out of the way and fill in the bubbles with a blue glitter pen. Draw a striped design down the dress of the fairy using a pink marker pen (if your lines look a bit wobbly, don’t worry! You can always colour the fairy in). (pic c)
4. Cut out an apron shape  from felt and glue a rectangle of card to the front with ‘The Washing Up Fairy’ written on it. Cut a strip of self-adhesive pink felt and use this to fix the apron to the body of the fairy. (pic d)

Paint the background of the lid with green glitter porcelain paint, adding a second coat as before. When this is dry use a cocktail stick or very fine paintbrush to write ‘Dear Mum…’ in purple. (pic b)

Paint vertical stripes all the way round the base of the trinket box with pink paint. When this is dry fill in the gaps between the lines with green paint. If the colours are not solid enough add a second coat.

Use a similar shaped label template to cut out several pieces of coloured paper. Write your promises on each one and fold up like an envelope, securing with a stick on heart gem. Place the promises in the box. (pic d)

1. Wash and completely dry a porcelain trinket box to remove any marks and greasy fingerprints. Use a soft pencil to trace a label shape in the centre of the lid and colour in with pink glitter porcelain paint (use our template). Leave to dry before adding a second coat to deepen the colour.

Take a suitable picture and place another large heart over it so the face can be seen easily. Draw around the heart onto the background of the picture and cut out 5mm inside the line as before. Glue the picture inside the foam heart. (pic c)

Use silicone glue to fix the picture frame heart over onto the backing heart and scalloped strip and leave to dry. Decorate by cutting smaller white hearts from spare glitter foam taken from the middle of a frame shape. Cut a square of white card with pattern-edge scissors. (pic d)

Fold a small square of light coloured paper in half. Fix one side of a butterfly sticker to the fold and draw a larger outline with a pencil. Cut out the shape and open out the fold behind the sticker. Add spots with a fibre tip pen and glue the butterflies to the front of the card so some wings overlap the middle opening. (pic c)

Cut a large circle of coloured paper and glue inside the card. Use the jumbo paint pad to ink your hand then carefully print onto another piece of light coloured paper. Leave to dry. Cut around the fingers and glue to the middle of the circle. Add decoration and a greeting using fibre tip pens. (pic d)

1. Cut a piece of pink A4 card to 16cm wide. Turn sideways and draw lines down the card, 7.4cm from each short edge. Fold the card on these lines to make a gate-fold. Use a compass to draw a curve at the top of the card and cut through both thicknesses. (pic a)
