  2. I am seriously impressed that you got such a deep, rich red by using food coloring. We usually end up with pink when we try to do dye pasta. A lovely craft! I am sharing it on my FB page.

  13. This craft may involve gluing or stringing the colored pasta pieces together to form the shape of a wagon, which can then be embellished with additional decorations like ribbons, hearts, or stickers. It's a fun and festive DIY activity suitable for celebrating the holiday with a personalized touch.
