Step 2: Then, apply more glue onto the top of the photo to seal it.

Step 4: Apply some glue to the back of the bow and fix it to top of the decoration to finish.

Step 1: Print out your desired letter and cut it out to create a template.
Step 2: Evenly roll out a piece of air-drying clay, then lay your template on top and cut around the letter with a knife. Use the end of a paintbrush or the tip of a pencil to create a hole big enough to thread a piece of twine through. Leave to dry.
Step 3: Once dry, you may need to sand any rough edges. Using acrylic paint and a gold permanent marker, decorate your initial decoration. We've gone for leaves in two shades of green, pink flowers and gold accents.
Step 4: Once fully dry, thread twine through the hole and your decoration is ready to hang!
