Holiday Plants
Holiday plants are a great way to add color to your home. You can include live tree ornaments, ornaments made with dried leaves, and ornaments made with pinecones. Holiday plants can also be used as gifts! If you’re looking for something special, consider getting a potted plant that’s already decorated.
Colorful, Reusable Christmas Tree Craft
To make Christmas trees, you can use recycled items like egg cartons, plastic cups, and paper plates. Colorful tree decorations are also available in stores that sell holiday-themed items.
Decorate your tree by adding different colors and sizes of pompoms to it. Some people also like to add bows or other types of ribbons on the branches of their trees. You can also decorate your tree with lights or glittering stars placed at various heights on the branches.
Milk Jug Santa Decor
You can do this DIY project with your adult family members. You will need to buy the Santa figurine, artificial flowers, and the milk jug. Take out the inside part of the milk jug and make it hollow but keep its shape. Put some glue on both sides of the head of the Santa figurine and place it inside the hollowed-out area to secure it properly. Take an artificial flower and cut off its stem so that only its leaves are left behind; then take these leaves and glue them onto various parts of your milk jug, like on top of it or around its neck area etc., to give it a nice decorative look which resembles a Santa hat type thingy! You could also add some ribbon bows on top or some glittery stars if you want something extra special too!
Eco-Friendly Door Wreath
If you’re looking for a door wreath filled with all the colors of the season, this one is for you. This festive decoration is made from natural materials like tree branches and leaves, making it easy for your environment. Some people use real flowers to make this wreath, but others prefer fake ones because they don’t die and look as good after they’ve been around for a while.
Wine Bottle Centerpiece
This is an excellent idea for the wine lover in your life! The centerpiece is made from old wine bottles, and it looks rustic, charming, and modern at the same time. It’s not hard to make either; you can contribute to the decor by making this yourself at home. All you need are some colored paper, string, and glue or spray paint. You can also use decorative rocks if you want something other than glass bottles.
