1. Ice Skate Wreath

Setting for Four's ice skate wreath is simple to make and looks great on the mantel. All you need is a beautiful wreath, a stylish pair of skates, greenery to fill the skates with, and a few gold jingle bells to complete the look.

2 Filters for Coffee Garland décor

If you know what you're looking for, you can create beautiful DIY Christmas decorations out of just about anything. Coffee filters have been used to create this faux flower garland. If you don't have any of those materials on hand, you may create a craft out of tissue paper and have a fun day. Country Living has a great guide on how to do this.

3. Christmas Village Stocking Hangers

Provide an alternative to your usual Christmas stocking hangers this season by making one of these Christmas village stocking hanging boxes for them instead. They're lit up with battery-operated lights to give them a town-like appearance. Jen Woodhouse, a DIY specialist, has created a tutorial for you.

4. Christmas Decoration Ideas with Garland Accents (DIY)

Even though fresh garlands are lovely, you should personalize yours to add a bit of fun and to guarantee that it blends well with the surrounding surroundings. Grab a sheet of construction paper in a variety of bright colors and use it to cut out some holiday shapes (like these triangle trees). Then glue them together and attach them to your garland using a fishing line. Tie a ribbon in the same color as the railing at the end of the banister to tie everything together.

5. Copper Pipe Candle Holder

Looking for a more sophisticated do-it-yourself project? Pretty Handy Girl created this copper pipe candle holder that you may use. It would be ideal for use as a centerpiece for your Christmas dinner table. Furthermore, you may keep it out all year.

6. Stitched Stockings

Make a stitched stocking with felt and pompom embellishments to hang on your fireplace for a warm and inviting touch. Use your sewing abilities to make this project. Consider mixing and matching a couple with other felt stockings, such as these animal-inspired ones from Tell Love and Party. You can find the instruction here.

7. Christmas Trees Made of Sweaters

What's the quickest and most convenient method to reuse an old Christmas sweater? Make it into little Christmas tree ornaments. Alternatively, a ribbon with a Nordic pattern may be used, as Bless'er House did here.

8. Embroidered Plaid Pillows for Christmas Décor

In less than ten minutes, you can turn plain pillows into colorful sofa décor for your home. Nothing more than a sewing machine and a cheap fleece blanket will suffice. Visit Happiness is Homemade for the full lesson.

9. Honeycomb Christmas Bulbs bulbs

Studio DIY's honeycomb Christmas lights take the concept of "oversized" to a whole new level. Because it is a simple project that takes little time and effort, you may do it at the last minute if you are running short on time before a Christmas party.

10. Christmas Table Decorations Made From Black Paper

Instead of a tablecloth, use a piece of black butcher paper to create a more elegant look. You will be able to customize it in any manner you want. When you use a paint pen, you may harness your inner artist to decorate the table with ornamental elements and/or personalize place cards. Plus, it makes cleaning up after the holiday meal a whole lot simpler.

11. Chair Wreaths And Chair Décor

When it comes to seasonal decorating, don't forget about your seats! Note that Bless'er House has adorned these chairs with tiny boxwood wreaths and ribbon, which you can see from these seats.

12. Wood Candle Holders

These rustic wood candle holders are a simple way to bring warmth into your house. Decorate a small number of them on a tray with foliage and berry accents, or scatter them all around the home. You may find the lesson at Marty's Musings.

13. Candy Cane Garland decorated with candy canes, icing, and a cheerful face

Those candy cane garlands, created by Frosting and a Smile, are just brilliant! You may use them to adorn a big or small Christmas tree, or you can incorporate them into various Christmas-themed decorations around your house.

14. Brass Ring Wreath Sugar & Charm

This DIY wreath project from Sugar and Charm, using brass rings, is the ideal activity to help you get into the Christmas spirit. They're also attractive and modest enough to be left up after the Christmas season is gone if desired.

15. Make Mini Houses and create a winter reading nook with them.

This reading nook, created and arranged by Emily Henderson for the holidays, may be replicated with a few cream knit stockings and miniatures if you like the neutral hues used. Instead of purchasing them, you can make your own using a little wood home kit. Make use of this tutorial as a guide.
