Here's some of Nia Treasure's Christmas villages from last year.
Nia was aged 11 when these photographs were shared with us.
The collection includes tissue paper snowmen, hedges, a frozen pond with PVA glue,
a frozen river with silicone sealant, mountains with expanding foam, a paved plaza
printed from our computer, a frozen fountain with cling film and loads of deciduous trees.
These were made from twiggy branches stuck into modelling clay for a base and then
sprayed with fake snow spray.
When we started to pack it away, it seemed such a shame, so we made a smaller
summer village using the houses that weren't too Christmassy.
This year we plan to include some big mountains and lots more trees.
