Christmas Star over Bethlehem – This lesson is a simple, yet a lovely one to celebrate the Christmas season. My students enjoyed the bright colors and the velvet blue night sky that we painted.

Christmas Ornament Chalk Pastel Tutorial at Hodgepodge

Christmas ornament – Nana decided we needed a painterly effect around the ornaments. Each chose their own color. For the painterly effect, turn your pastel stick on its side and skumble – just gently brush your pastel around your ornaments.

Christmas tree in the snow – Be sure to sign your name with your favorite color, then find a spot to display your beautiful Christmas tree! You may even want to give your tree as a gift.

You ARE An Artist - Decorate Christmas Cookies

Christmas Cookies – Tis the season for baking Christmas cookies! Christmas cookies are an art form, wouldn’t you agree? So, we wondered what type of Christmas cookies you love to bake and decorate.

Christmas Nativity Chalk Pastel Art Tutorial - You ARE an Artist

Nativity – In this nativity chalk pastel art lesson we will focus on the scene the night of the birth of Jesus! Now this colorful scene is a picture of Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus right at sunset.
