A Handmade Christmas

I love supporting Etsy sellers when I can, but I’m also a big fan of doing those things that I can at home that are actually cool. I don’t know about you, but many times when I try the DIY route, it just doesn’t turn out.When I find a DIY resource and it works… well, that’s just magic.

Here are three sites I’ve found with adorable handmade Christmas ideas that actually meet both the I-would-actually-have-that-in-my-house and doable criteria that are so essential to stress-free holiday decorating. Hope you enjoy!

1. Felt Ruffle Wreath via www.domestifluff.com

I love this one and can’t wait to try it myself. Go here for the full tutorial.

2. Terrarium Ornaments via Design*Sponge.

Inspired by these ornaments from Land Rich (via Apartment Therapy), I admit this one seems a little more difficult. But still doable. Go here for the full tutorial.

3. Pine Cone Garland via Twig & Thistle

CP_Pine-Cone-Wreath

I made this, then changed my mind and hooked the pinecones on another wreath instead. I love the possibilities of this idea. Go here for the full tutorial.

I also love the very crafty tutorials via Elsie, Rachel, and the Girls at Red Velvet Art, and I have a book of Christmas ideas from my MIL that I am excited to test out. How are you incorporating handmade into Christmas this year?
