Hi, it’s November and my thoughts are turning to Christmas – the season of ‘Hygge’ as they say here in Denmark! The last coupe of years our small family has enjoyed crafting these simple DIY Nordic Horse decorations, which I designed a couple of winters ago, and they have come to signal the start of the cold season for our household.
For me, crafting your own decorations – from card, wool and felt – is the perfect Hygge Christmas activity for the whole family! And the good thing about this particular project is that there is something for all ages.
The Craft Ebook – which I enjoyed putting together a few winters ago – contains six of my printable Dala Horse designs – which can be coloured in or left beautifully plain!

A little peek at what’s included in the ebook:
My favourite bit is always colouring in the horses – it’s kind of a meditative activity – I guess you could call it an exercise in mindfullness..
