Create your own Christmas decorations and spend quality time with your family and friends, making them.

Salt dough

Salt dough ornaments are a classic craft that your children will love to make.

Recipe:

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour 
  • 1 cup salt
  • 1 1/2 cup hot water

Knead until the dough is firm and smooth. Spread the dough and cut into whatever shape you like (use a straw to make a hole to hang them). Bake at 180 ° C until dry, about 1 hour. Leave to cool.


Ornaments from old light bulbs:

Use your old light bulbs to decorate the tree. You can create beautiful ornaments either by painting on the light bulb, with any design you like or by opening the bulb and filling it with salt and some branches or some glitter.


Room decorations from mason jars:

Use your kitchen jars and turn them into the most beautiful room decorations. You can either paint the exterior and decorate them with ribbons or fill them with cotton or fake snow and miniature ornaments or whatever you like and it inspires you.


Twine Ornaments:

You will need some wood glue, balloons, and twine, in whatever color you like.

  1. Inflate the balloon to a small size, depending on what size you want to make your ornaments.
  2. Mix the glue in a bowl and dilute with a little water.
  3. Stick one end of the string to the balloon and hold it with your hand.
  4. Wrap around the string in irregular places, first straight and then diagonally.
  5. Cut the string.
  6. Spread the glue all over the string, with a brush.
  7. Hang with a clothespin to dry.
  8. Pop the balloon and you have a beautiful ornament.
