Create beautiful Christmas DIY home decor with the 12 Crafts of Christmas.
12 Crafts of Christmas: Made With Love
There’s something special about creating a beautiful piece of home decor with your own hands. You’ve put time, creative thought, and effort into your piece of art, and no two items are exactly the same. Which makes each a masterpiece in their own right. And if you’re creating them for diy Christmas gifts, then your love is also poured into the gift you created especially for someone.
Budget-Friendly
Another perk for those who are budget-minded, handmade crafts can be less expensive than store-bought gifts. That’s if you are able to save money on supplies by having some materials already on hand. Or if you need to buy supplies, plan to make a few gifts to distribute the costs of the craft supplies over many gifts. A lot of the same decorative accents are using in three or more of the 12 Crafts of Christmas tutorials to offset costs and use up supplies.
You can get started by shopping your own home for supplies that you already have on hand and giving them a new life. Or you can usually find these supplies inexpensively at thrift stores or dollar stores. The value is in the time and thought that you put into the craft. So in the spirit of giving, I’m giving you 12 easy DIY Christmas crafts you can make and gift this season.
Let’s spread holiday cheer and the magic of gratitude.
