Kate Middleton Handmakes Christmas Cards, According To Sister, Pippa

There's a constant buzz about Kate Middleton's effortless style and of course, her newly announced pregnancy, but who knew the Duchess had such a crafty past?

According to Daily News and Analysis, her sister Pippa Middleton, revealed in her book Celebrate, that when she and her siblings were younger, they would handmake their own Christmas cards. "When I was a child, my December weekends were spent making cards, decorating the tree, hanging the wreath and preparing brandy butter and peppermint creams,? she wrote.

The younger Middleton also said that every December the family repeats these family traditions. And since it was announced that the Royal couple will be spending Christmas with the Middletons? we?re hoping that means some DIYing.

Though, considering Kate?s recent health issues, the Duchess and Prince William might not be getting out their glue guns and glitter anytime soon, but it is nice to know that the Royal baby will have some crafty genes.
