Festive Fare *~* Decorations *~* Tree Trims *~* Giftwrap *~* Cards *~* Carols

Bringing glad tidings of good food, stylish decorations for the tree, hearth and table, creative wrappings and popular carols and entertainments, The Christmas Book contains all the ingredients for a happy and memorable festive season.

For a traditional feast with all the trimmings, there are recipes for drinks and nibbles, roasts and glazed meats, puddings, mince pies, fruit cakes and shortbread. And we haven't neglected the warmer climes, including a seafood platter and delicious ice-cream pudding.

Mixing the traditional and innovative, the decorating ideas include loads of activities for kids. Using the simplest of materials, they can get busy decking out the tree, making colourful wrappings and cards, or embellishing cardbboard Santas and carollers.

In the meantime, the older members of the family have their fair share of decorating options: a festive table setting using the stencil insert, crackers and stockings, garlands and wreaths, and a calico duo for the mantelpiece called Dave and Celeste.

All your favourite Christmas carols are here too, along with some traditional entertainments for the day itself. So why not savour the satisfaction of creating your own Christmas this year - and for many seasons to come - and the joy that a family Christmas brings?

All measurements are in metric weights and metric cups/spoons. A metric/imperial conversion table is also included.
