From my 2024 archive:
It’s really fun to think about what I can use for my next Advent Shaker Calendar, and this one started out life as a very nice scented candle in a tin. Having filled my home with a beautiful fragrance, it has now found a second purpose as my latest shaker!
Video Transcript:
Well I love candles, and I usually keep the containers that the candles have been in. And, so, I’ve decided to make this into a shaker of course. Oh it smells nice.
Video Description:
Evelyn is stood in front of an array percussion instruments of varying shapes, sizes, textures and colours. She shows us the shaker she has created today, as part of her Advent Shaker Calendar (where she is making a new shaker every day in the lead-up to Christmas), describing what it is made from, and then demonstrates it.
