Here are six great ideas for making your own homemade Christmas decorations!
Cinammon candles. You need: whit ecnaldes, 20 cinammon sticks, and twine.
You just glue the cinammon sticks around the candle, let it dry, and
then wrap some twine around it to give it a rustic edge. If you make two
or three with different-sized candles, you could use them as a
centerpiece for a cute holiday decoration.
Glitter votives. If you love decorating every corner
of your house, these are perfect! Just grab a plain candleholder, apply
glue to the area you want to sparkle, and cover it in glitter.
Star garland. This would be great on a Christmas
tree or hung up on the wall. You need white or red construction paper,
scissors, a pencil, and twine. Draw stars on the construction paper, cut
them out, and start winding the twine through them by making small
holes in the center. Use a knot on either side of the hole to fix the
stars in place.
Natural decorations. If you live near the
countryside or a big green space, there are probably tons of things you
could use - pine cones, pretty leaves, delicate twigs, etc. The trick is
to combine them in a cute way, as shown in photo 4.
Centerpieces for Christmas Eve and Christmas. There
are two ideas, and both of them will impress your parents, friends, and
other guests! For the first one, put some holly underneath three glasses
turned upside-down. Then, add a candle on top of the glass. You could
also do the same thing with ornaments.
Pine cones for place settings. This is so cute! Just
get some small pinceones, acrylic paint (or nail polish), and
construction paper. Paint the tips of the pinecones, then let them dry.
Write guests' names on a small slip of paper and place it in the top of
the pinecone.
