Easy Christmas Decoration Ideas

Fake snow

Fake snow is a fast and fun way to make any room full of festive Christmas spirit! Fake snow can be bought from Michaels or any craft store at a reasonable price. Cotton balls will also suffice as fake snow when you thinly separate them. When I use fake snow, I generally fill them in jars or small vases. After I put the fake snow in, I add small Christmas decorations on top. These can be placed anywhere and don’t take up too much space. 

 

Framed Sparkle Snowflake Cutouts

If you are into arts and crafts this will definitely be an entertaining little project for you. All you will need is cardboard, glue, glitter, and a frame. Simply cut out your shapes and figures from the cardboard and smother them evenly in glitter. Glue your cardboard cutouts to another piece of cardboard that is measured to fit the frame, or glue your frame to the cardboard. Now you can hang or stand your masterpiece wherever you like. You can also just draw the design on the cardboard but the cutout makes the design pop out more, giving it a 3D effect. 

Candy Cane Vase

What’s better than a Christmas vase? A candy cane Christmas vase! This is super quick, easy for anyone to make. Just grab yourself an empty can and glue your candy canes tightly all around it. As a finishing touch wrap a ribbon, preferable red or green, around the candy canes and now you have a cute and tasty vase! You can fill the vase with anything of your choice. I like to fill them with chocolate, flowers, or fake snow with candy on top. These can also be great gifts for that special someone.
