Make pretty paper poinsettias for Christmas with Fifi Colston. This is a fun, hands-on activity for kids of all ages. Using only scissors, felt-tipped pens, paper, and glue sticks, you’ll create a flower decoration fit for a present, table, or tree!

Fifi Colston

Fifi is a junior-fiction novelist, children’s book illustrator, poet, and long-standing presenter of arts and crafts on TVNZ’s Good Morning Show. She’s a Wellington veteran of Wearable Arts – an award winning finalist with 18 entries in show over the years.

When Fifi has a moment, she visits schools to inspire budding young artists and writers, runs workshops in the creative process, and wonders what she can make next out of an egg carton!
