Three lit Christmas candles of different heights, with thick drips of wax running down each one, standing on a bed of holly leaves and berries. The candles fill fast, the holly underneath takes a little longer, and the three flames want the brightest yellow in the box. Giving each candle its own color, red, green and white for instance, shows off the difference in height, and two greens on the holly keep the base from turning into one dark mass. Kids from about five manage this Christmas candles drawing well, and once colored and cut out it makes a table decoration for Christmas dinner. More holly, on a cake this time: the Christmas cake.
Coloring ideas for this page
- Two greens across the holly, alternating leaf by leaf.
