Ah, Christmas! The time of year when everything sparkles, and your home transforms into a festive wonderland. If you're keen to add some extra magic this year (without breaking the bank), DIY Christmas decorations are the way to go. Plus, who doesn't love a bit of crafting corner fun while belting out Mariah Carey’s greatest hits?
Deck the Halls with Homemade Baubles
Get the family together for a crafty day of fun by creating homemade baubles. You can use clear plastic or glass ornaments and fill them with tinsel, glitter, or painted designs. Feeling extra creative? Try filling them with mini snow scenes or tiny Christmas confetti for that Insta-worthy floaty effect. Not only is it a fab way to express yourself, but these bespoke baubles make excellent gifts. Have a peek at our Christmas collection for even more inspiration to spark your inner artiste!
A Wreath to Wow
Nail that first impression with a DIY wreath that screams 'Merry and Bright'. Start with a basic green branch base, then go wild with ribbons, pinecones, dried oranges, and even candy canes. Add a mini string of battery-operated fairy lights to switch up the glow factor. Worried about finding supplies? Fear not! A quick rummage in your craft cupboard or a trip to your local craft shop should do the trick. Plus, it's reusable, so you're set for next year too. Score!
Sassy String Lights
Whether it's the tree, the windows, or an elegant garland framing your doorway, string lights can absolutely elevate the festive feels. To add a personal touch, try blending string lights through crafted paper shapes. For something lush and personalised, cut out fun, festive shapes using coloured card and attach them to the lights. And remember, the colours don't have to scream traditional. Who says you can’t have a neon Christmas?
Cheers to Chic DIY Table Settings
No festive feast is complete without Instagrammable table settings, right? Fold your napkins into cheeky little Christmas trees or roll them with a candy cane. Trust us, your followers will eat it up – pun intended. Don’t forget to sprinkle some handmade confetti or scatter small ornaments around the table for that added sparkle. For more festive flair at dinner time, our Christmas mugs are perfect to serve your signature hot cocoa with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Yum!
Pimp Your Tree
Now, we're not saying skip the traditional ornaments altogether, but why not add some personal flair to your Christmas tree? Raid your stash of yarn and start wrapping ordinary ball ornaments for a funky, textured look. Another idea? DIY some salt dough ornaments, paint them, and hang them on your tree for a cute, rustic vibe. They double as gift tags too – functional and festive! Oh, and maybe pop over to see our diverse range of merch to complete the look.
