Christmas tree playdough gift set - printables to personalise
Assemble your gift by making a batch of green playdough and filling up your choosen jar.  
Position snipped lengths of bead garland around the outer edge so they can be seen from the outside or place them on top of the dough once the jar's been filled.

Print and cut out the label, threading a piece of string through and including a cookie cutter. Attach them both to the neck of the jar.  

Print, cut out and laminate the Christmas tree, then curl it around into the shape of a cone. Check that it fits over the jar lid and sticky tape the cone edges together and then again to the top of the lid. If wanted use a general purpose adhesive and red glitter to decorate the illustrated baubles. Use the cone as a mould by filling it with dough, releasing it gently by squeezing it and creating tree shapes that can be decorated, rolled and cut out!
