Are you decorating your house? Don’t know what other decorations you should make to put up? Well then you came to the right article! Here are three DIY Christmas decorations you can easily make for your house.



Christmas Light Wreath

If you want to make your own wreath to hang up on your door this DIY Christmas Lights Wreath is the perfect for you!

This is what you will need:

65 colorful bulbs in two rows on a flat

12-inch craft or cardboard ring

Hot glue gun

Assembling Directions:

You put all the bulbs in a circle, add the second row light bulbs and you should hot glue them together, wait for them to fully stuck together and you now got a wonderful, colorful wreath to hang up on your door.





Advent Calendar:

Instead of going to a store and buying an Advent Calendar, you can make your own!

Here is all the supplies you would need to make this amazing Calendar:

Little paper envelopes (sized to hold all sorts of surprises)

Candy

Tiny Toys

Tickets

Rubber Stamps

Assembling Directions:

Use the rubber stamp to stamp all the dates on the envelopes, and you can make the envelopes look nice and festive, by adding tags, washi tape,red string and or clip art. Then, finally pin the envelopes on a pretty cardboard, and now you have an amazing DIY Advent Calendar.

Coffee-Filter Garland

The classic popcorn has been replaced by the Coffee-Filter Garland, here are the supplies

you would need to make this amazing garland.

A lot of ruffled coffee filters (white and natural colored ones)

10- foot garland

Assembling Directions:

First, you take 12 of your ruffled coffee-filters mixing both colors together then you staple the middle. Next, you repeat the process, and 20 stapled stacks will yield a 10-foot garland. Then, cut a piece of twine that's at least a foot longer than the desired length of your garland, and knot one end. Thread on one stack and secure tightly in place by knotting the twine on the other side, then tie another knot six inches down. Slide on a second stack until it presses against that last knot. Continue tying knots and adding stacks until all are strung. Finally, scrunch the filters with your fingers to transform each stack into a full-fledged pom-pom.
