THREE DIY CHRISTMAS DECORATING IDEAS

Are you still looking for tips to decorate your home for the holidays? In addition to being inspired by your homes in Temple TX neighbors’ décor you should consider these DIY Christmas decorating ideas to create a festive and joyous home this holiday season.

Handprint or footprint ornament – Are you a proud parent or grandparent of a newborn or infant? Celebrate your child or grandchild this holiday season by making a DIY handprint or footprint ornament. Simply coat your child’s hand or footprints on the ornament and then cover the prints with glitter. Allow the prints to dry for at least 15 minutes and then spray the entire ornament with glossy acrylic spray. Allow the ornament to fully dry and then write out your grandchild or child’s name by using a Sharpie glitter pen.

Peppermint candy wreath or centerpiece – There always seems to be an excess amount of peppermint candies during this time a year. You will need a couple of pounds of peppermint candies to make this DIY project work. Get a Styrofoam wreath and glue your unwrapped candy around it. Protect your peppermint wreath by spraying it down with crystal clear acrylic and complete this look by using ribbon to hang your wreath.

Reindeer wine cork craft décor –Get creative with your used wine corks to create reindeer décor this season. These will look good as a Christmas table display or on your tree. Depending on the intricacy of your reindeer, you’ll need at least five wine corks for the legs, neck, face, and body to create your reindeer wine cork craft décor. Glue on a red pom pom to create the red nose and either glue on googly eyes or stick black sewing pins down the cork to make the eyes.
