Simple Christmas Decorations

I can’t believe that Christmas is in a few days! This year has went by so quickly. I have been busy doing several craft projects, and I didn’t realize how fast time has gone by. For this blog post, I wanted to share with you all some of the Christmas crafts I have worked on. I think that they are fairly simple to complete, and hopefully someone can draw inspiration from the projects.

  1. Garland Wreath

For this project, I used a 12 in. foam wreath and red and gold tinsel garland.

All I did was wrap the garland around the wreath until the wreath was fully covered.

Only took me about 5 minutes!

2. Christmas Wood Frame

I used a frame from a previous craft, and turned it into wall art.

I spray painted the frame red. After the frame was dry, I cut some wrapping paper and attached it to the back of the frame.

I hung the frame from a couple of nails that were already in my wall. Then, I added the gold ornament.

3. Christmas Sign

I really enjoyed doing this project because the sign came from a piece of an old drawer in my son’s room.

I was dismantling the drawer and I wanted to save some parts for future projects. I took the back part off and used it for my sign.

I thought I wanted to paint it white, but I went with red instead.

After the board was dry, I used a gold paint pen and some stencils to draw letters and shapes.

I put the finished sign by my Christmas tree. I love the way it looks there.
