There is sickness in the house again, we never seem to move very far away from it these days, with one or all of us burdening under some sort of ailment.
Oscar and I spent most of the day on the sofa, with a good selection of Scooby Doo and Craft TV shows to keep us amused. What did occur to us from our static viewpoint is that the room looks quite dreary. Oscar said it was because there were no Christmas decorations left and I tend to agree with him, combined with the grey light filtering through the windows.
I remembered that we had a couple of Waldorf stars on the window in our old house, but for some reason they have disappeared and I dont think they made it to the cottage. Tissue paper folding isnt the most exciting thing to do, but it can be done on the sofa, involves very little energy and is calm and quiet. I cut and folded and Oscar glued and instructed on colours. Perfect.
There are hundreds of Waldorf star tutorials online and in print, but in case you were wondering, we used this very easy one.
We did not have the wax paper used in the tutorial so we used 10 inch x 10 inch tissue paper squares.
Poor Oscar fell asleep before the glue was dry enough to hang them, but it was a lovely surprise for him when he woke up.
