FESTIVE TV will include Stacey Solomon returning with her craft ideas this Christmas.
The Loose Women star will appear on BBC One as she presents Stacey Solomon‘s Crafty Christmas.
Stacey will present the annual special, which shares clever ways to cut costs, upcycle and spread some homemade cheer at Christmas time.
This is the third annual show, after two previous specials in 2022 and 2023 which proved a hit with viewers.
This year’s special will airon BBC One and iPlayer, with the festive one-off special following Stacey, Joe and the kids as they hand-make gifts and decorations for their family and friends at their home Pickle Cottage.
In true Stacey style there are ideas for all ages, with son Leighton helping Stacey to create personalised Christmas crackers, and three-year-old Rex getting messy with marbleised baubles for the tree.
Last year, Stacey demonstrated how to make homemade Christmas crafts, including personalised crackers, a Christmas door display, giant nutcrackers, and Christmas bells.
Whilst this year’s air date hasn’t yet been revealed, it has been confirmed that it will be next month ahead of the festive season.
A source previously told us: “Stacey and Joe are such homebodies and love nothing more than spending time with their children.
“The series is set to be a huge hit, given the chaos that comes with a big family…
“Stacey and Joe will also not hold back when it comes to showing the highs and lows of family life.
“Fans can expect to see an unfiltered version of a busy household.”
The Christmas craft special also comes after reports the BBC have commissioned a new fly-on-the-wall reality series with access to Stacey Solomon, Joe Swash and family.
The series is produced by Optomen TV, the production company behind Stacey’s Sort Your Life Out, and will be due to air in 2025.
BBC’s Sort Your Life Out has already ran for three successful series, with the programme renewed for a fourth and fifth season by the broadcaster.
