Those who have some time on their hands who want to make their décor even that special will find that there are tons of décor items that you can make at home with a few craft supplies, time, and patient. These can be great to hang on your prelit Christmas trees or even sit around your home to bring your theme to life. Remember, DIY crafts are a great way to really get into the Christmas spirit, especially if you are having a hard time really getting into the holiday mood.

Unleash Your Creative Side for Your Prelit Christmas Tree

For those who do want to add some homemade cheer to their prelit Christmas trees, here are a few projects to get you started!

1. All you need is some paper and a pair of scissors to create a variety of snowflake patterns. To make different sizes of paper snowflakes, use any scrap paper you have around the house. You may display them in the windows for everyone to see.

2. You may build a lovely garland out of dried oranges or hang them singly on the tree. To make dried orange slices, all you need is one orange, a knife, an oven, and some ribbon or string to tie them together.

3. A popcorn garland is a simple and inexpensive way to construct a Christmas decoration. All you need is plain popcorn, a large needle, clear wire (such as fishing wire), and clear tape to secure the end of the garland. When working with children, use caution. However, it’s a fun project that looks adorable on the tree.

4. To make paper stars, all you need is some paper (one idea is to use old paper bags) and a pair of scissors. Then use sellotape or blue tac to attach them to the windows, or punch a hole in them and hang with a piece of string anywhere in the house.

You will find that these DIY crafts can be used easily on prelit Christmas trees, no matter what theme you are using. And they are great Christmas crafts to do for those who have kids at home and you want to get them involved. When you combine these projects with some great cookie and sweet recipes that you can make at home, you are going to find that you are creating a magical Christmas that you and your family will always remember.
