Christmas in July is the perfect time to get crafty. Though many of us may have already decided on the theme for our Christmas in July celebrations, it’s never too late to incorporate unique DIY pieces to really enhance the festive spirit in your home. Star Trays, Bauble Chandeliers, Mirrored Trays and Craft Baubles are effective and inexpensive projects to bring a little extra special Christmas cheer to any space.
Why not add a little – or a lot of – sparkle to your Christmas in July craft décor for a truly luxurious feel. After all, Christmas is the perfect excuse to go crazy with glittery decorations. Or maybe you’ve left the gift shopping to the last minute and you know someone who would appreciate a glittery masterpiece. The following Christmas craft suggestions are also a terrific way to give a thoughtful gift.
Star of the Show
Though stars are often traditionally featured on top of the Christmas tree, there are other ways you can use them as part of your decorating. Be inspired to get crafty with our Make and Create: Set of 3 Glitter Star Trays. We’ve decorated our Star Trays to match a Silver and Sage theme, however the instructions are not a solid method – you can really get creative by painting the stars in line with your Christmas in July decorating theme. No matter what the colour and style might be, stars arethe perfect addition. Craft your own glittery stars at home, then display them on a shelf, mantle or hanging on the wall.
The extra bonus about putting some effort into these beauties is that these Glitter Star Trays don’t need to be limited to only at Christmas time. They’re sure to become a beloved piece of décor which you’ll be proud to display in your home all year round. You could even have a few sets in different colours and finishes to suit different seasons and decorating occasions.
