It seems like there is no other holiday quite like Christmas, as it impassions everyone to decorate their home. It makes sense, given that the festive and bright decor we use adds splashes of color to a gray Earth in the dead of winter. However, you may want to add a personal touch to your home. In that case, consider trying these fun and unique Christmas craft decorations you can do yourself.
Citrus Garland
Did you know that garland made from popcorn and dried citrus was the original Christmas decor before trees became the norm? Garland serves to symbolize eternal life, hence the switch to using greenery. If you want to pay homage to these older traditions, you might consider making your garland with dried citrus. You can also add popcorn, but keep in mind the garland won’t last as long with it.
Ornament Tiebacks
There’s nothing better than waking up, brewing some coffee, and opening your curtains to let natural light fill your home. The best part is you can even add a bit of festive joy to that part of your day with ornamental tiebacks. To add some merriment to your curtains and windows, grab an ornament with a hook and secure it onto your curtain tiebacks. These tiebacks are a great way to add fun and unique DIY Christmas craft decorations to your home, as you can use ornaments that have a special meaning to you.
Jumbo Wreath
If you want to have a showstopping piece in or on your home, then you need to have a jumbo wreath. You might think that making a wreath would be an expensive craft. However, when you use pool noodles for your Christmas-themed wreath, it doesn’t have to be. Once you have your base, you can add all kinds of ornaments, garlands, and details to your wreath. You might even consider inviting your family to assist in making this wreath to create a bonding opportunity.
Christmas Card Tree
One of the best parts about the Christmas season is receiving holiday greeting cards from friends and family. But where do you put them so that you can truly appreciate them? Rather than having them add clutter to your fridge, consider making a Christmas card tree.
To make your Christmas card tree, you’ll want to purchase wall-safe adhesive, like double-backed tape. Find a clear space on the wall and start at the top in a pyramid shape to create your Christmas tree out of holiday cards. With every card you receive, you can add it to your wall, and before long, you will have a full tree.
