1. Print out the BLM template (page 7) onto cardboard. Cut out the square marked in grey, then fold the paper in half along the dotted line. Adult supervision is recommended when using scissors. Glue the paper together, allow to dry and cut out the cross shape.

2. Measure and mark from the top of a balsa stick at 90mm, 110mm and 130mm.

3. Cut the balsa stick at the measured marks. Once complete this will give you the main piece of the cross and two side pieces.

4. Apply PVA glue to the back of the balsa sticks, then place them onto the cardboard cross. Allow to dry.

5. Apply PVA glue to the back of the mosaic tiles, then place them onto the wooden area of the cross. Allow to dry. Remember to keep a space at the bottom of your cross so you can insert it into the base.

6. Pierce the top of a decofoam half circle with a hobby knife. This will be the entry point for the assembled cross. Adult supervision is recommended when using a hobby knife.

7. Coat the outside of the decofoam half circle with PVA glue. Use a paint brush to distribute the glue evenly over the entire surface.

8. Cover the glued surface of the decofoam half circle with glitter. Allow to dry.

For a step by step guide on how to sew a blanket stitch go to bit.ly/2RkoFzh

1. Use the BLM template provided on page 8 to cut out a piece of purple felt. Adult supervision is recommended when using scissors.

2. Fold the bottom third of the felt upwards to form a pouch shape, leaving a flap at the top. Crease the felt firmly and then unfold.

3. Flip the pouch over. Use the BLM template to cut out a white felt cross. Use a simple back stitch to sew it to the middle front panel with purple thread.

4. Fold the bottom third back upwards to re-form the pouch shape making sure the cross is on the outside. Use a needle and white embroidery thread to sew a blanket stitch along one of the edges.

5. Flip the pouch back over and use a needle and white thread to sew a blanket stitch along the top edge. Make sure you don’t sew through the front piece of felt. Then sew down the other side through both pieces to secure it shut.

6. Choose a small button and sew it approximately 2cm from the bottom edge of the pouch. Leave 30cm of thread hanging loose and tie a knot in the end.

7. Fold the flap down to close the pouch and position a large button directly above the small button on top of the flap. Sew it in place. Wrap the loose thread around the two buttons to hold the pouch closed. Your pouch is now ready to use.
