To make these, all you will need is some felt, craft glue, a hole punch, a clip, freezer paper and some ribbon. Simply download the poinsettia template and you’ll have the perfect centrepiece for your tree in no time.
2. Winter wonderland wreath
Create a winter wonderland in your home this summer with this frosty wreath. Simply grab some wool, a foam wreath, art paper for the snow flakes, a hot glue gun and some blue baubles for decoration. This craft idea may be a little more challenging if you’re a kid, so make sure you get some help from an adult.
3. Christmas treat mason jars
This is an easy and fun Christmas craft for kids that will definitely be a hit these holidays. You can fill these with treats or leave them as is - the choice is yours! To make these, simply cover the inside of your jar with craft glue, pour some glitter inside and decorate. You can even try creating Santa and snowman themed jars.
4. Pinecone place card holders
Are you hosting a Christmas dinner party this year? If you are, then these pinecone place card holders are the perfect decor to add to your table. The best thing about these is you can customise them to your liking! Simply grab your favourite coloured artist paint, a paintbrush and a marker to make these. Once the paint is dry, write the names on the cards and slip them into the pinecones. If you want to spice these up, you can add more colours and glitter for decoration.
5. Popsicle stick wreath
This Christmas craft not only makes for stylish home decor, but it is also an enjoyable activity for kids of all ages! Simply grab some popsticks and paint them different shades of green. Stick these together with craft glue and finish it off with a red ribbon.
