As holiday approaches, we all need ideas on how to decorate our spaces with little amount. Why not try making homemade Christmas decorations as this will be a cheaper option in comparison with buying them every year. This holiday season, we have come up with three creative ideas for your home.
Christmas Garland: Add Some Festive Magic
You don’t need the creation of a gorgeous Christmas garland to be complex or expensive. You will simply require one faux plain garland or floral wire. You can also include fairy lights to put a little bit of sparkle in your party.
Lay out your garland and divide your decorations into separate heaps. Make sure your garland is well-covered with fairy lights if you are using fairy lights. Finally trim them down and arrange them into the threes. To do this, loop a strip of craftwire through each of them and then wrap around the strand. Keep adding knots until you are satisfied with the final shape of the garland. Put it up on the front door as a wreath, and draped over the mantlepiece as a festive touch.
Snow-Effect Jars: Bring the Winter Wonderland Indoors
Creating a winter wonderland into your home environment. Making snow-effect jars is an exciting DIY, which brings charm into any environment. For this purpose it is essential to have a glue gun, glue sticks, Epsom salt, permanent spray adhesive, glass jars or vases of various sizes, twine, fake Christmas berries décor items, and battery-powered fairy lights.
Begin sprinkling epsom salts across your work area. Spray the container’s surface with an adhesive such as spray mount and coat the resulting film with Epsom salt to get that frosted look. Allow them to dry for 30 minutes. Then twist twine around the top edge of each jar and secure with a knot. Glue the fake Christmas berry decoration on the front of each jar using the glue gun. Once the glue dries out put a string of Christmas light bulbs in each jar, positioning the jars centrally on your table for a great holiday centerpiece.
Christmas Tree Napkins: Elevate Your Table Setting
Bring some cuteness into this festive season with these cute-looking Christmas tree napkin. You will require napkins of fabric, cinnamon sticks and either ribbon or twine in order to make them. Fold the napkin in half and further place together both foldings for creating the square. Ensure that you fold one section over the other in a staggered manner on each layer. Turn the napkin upside down, fold left out corners as well as right out ones to the middle part in order to form a diamond. Flip it on both sides and fold the points inside. Lastly, slip a piece of cinnamon stick below the napkin and place a ribbon or twine on top of it which will act as a tree trunk.
