The Hellebore blooms at its most beautiful in our garden. When we also see a beautifully folded hellebore for the windows, we want to start right away. The little monsters can join in, it's not difficult at all. This craft comes from Myriadonline, a fun British children's toy webshop.

Roll up small pieces of tape to stick the Hellebore on the window.

The colourful Hellebore looks beautiful on our window!

The Helleborus can also be stuck to the window using your glue stick, but then it will bstick a bit firmer and you will have to clean your window afterwards :)
