Getting crafty at Christmas is an ideal way to bring the Christmas spirit into your home. Since we have created a huge amount of DIY Christmas projects over the years, we’ve gathered our pick of the bunch for you to admire and attempt.
Crafty Baubles
Glass baubles are a versatile addition to Christmas craft and décor. Use glass baubles to make unique Christmas craft to fit in with your décor, or mix-and-match your favourite themes.
If you are decorating with a coastal theme, check out how we made the coastal craft baubles.
Get a little bit fancy and add pastel bells and pearls to craft baubles, or create a colourful and heart-warming bauble with the children’s imagination.
We have previously shared with you the divine works of amazing Christmas crafter Sue Cross. Sue uses our glass craft baubles to create gorgeous special mementos for her loved ones. And you can too.
Dazzling Pinecones
Nothing says Christmas like pinecones and glitter, so together they are an adoring combination. Use glitter-dipped pinecones as a statement piece or to add glam to your Christmas tree and décor.
See our Christmas Craft with Glitter blog post to find out how we made these gorgeous pinecones.
Stunning Tree Toppers
Stray from tradition by crafting a stunning Christmas tree topper. Combine any of your favourite florals, ornaments, sprays and picks with (or without) a Christmas star, secure together with cable tie and voila! Your masterpiece can be altered every year by simply cutting off the cable tie and rearranging or adding different pieces.
For a natural approach to Christmas craft, our DIY Naturally Elegant tree topper is a great alternative to traditional Christmas décor. Or create an elegant and stylish tree topper by using items in our Christmas Sparkle collection.
Hanging Decorations
Don’t forget to deck the halls this Christmas by hanging your Christmas craft on the ceiling or walls!
Light It Up
Suitable for any Christmas décor theme, decorating with fairy lights is effortless and impactful. Get crafty this Christmas by hanging fairy lights as part of your Christmas décor.
The Best Things in Life are Free Printables
Free printables are a cost effective and crafty way to decorate any empty space throughout your home. Use in addition to your hanging décor to add a new dimension to your Christmas styling. Why not combine different images in each room to bring in some Christmas cheer? Check out our 3 Budget Friendly Decorating Ideas article for some great tips on how to use our downloadable posters in your Christmas decorating.
Leave No Wall Untouched
Add a soft, natural touch to your Christmas decorating by hanging luscious, green garlands.
Create a unique crafty Christmas space by hanging decorative Christmas garlands alongside your already decorated spaces. Use a playful garland in front of your free printables to form a one-of-a-kind look this Christmas.
Finishing Touches
Complete your Christmas decorating by hanging a crafty wreath. Refresh your traditional Christmas wreath by weaving or attaching decorations to it, such as star fish and fairy lights to compliment your Coastal theme, red baubles and a plaque as seen in our Magical Christmas Morning collection, or for a satirical and fun approach to Christmas decorating see our Make and Create: Christmas Elf Leg Wreath article.
