A DIY Christmas

Christmas is, hands down, my favorite holiday. And I absolutely love decorating for my favorite holiday. I'm sure you can already tell that judging by my Instagram feed...

Unfortunately, Christmas decorations are not always budget friendly. So during my daily browse through Pinterest, I found so many amazing DIY Christmas decorations! I am obviously going to craft them all immediately after writing this post.

And better yet, my little ones are able to help me with some of them! This should buy me like 20 minutes of no crying? I'll take it. #momwin

Ps. Three of them are Target Christmas decor look-alikes. Yayyy!! (Sorry Target, but a mama's gotta do what a mama's gotta do to make her house look Christmas fab!)

These are just fabulous. By the time I'm done, I'm going to have tiny bottle brush trees in every room of the house! Bonus: If the kids get hold of them, they won't shatter or break! You can find the bottle brush trees here or on tried & true Amazon!

Hand-print Wreath

These are going out to every set of grandparents and hanging in two places in our house! I just can't get enough of the tiny hand-prints!! For an added pop of color, try patterned or metallic paper!

I love red and green for the holidays, but sometimes you just need to personalize the colors. A mix of greys, blues, and cream will look amazing in my boys' rooms!

I used to make these as a child, and I'm beyond thrilled to have found an updated version of the recipe!! They will seriously make your house smell ah-mazing.

If you're not into the metallic-look this Christmas, opt for ribbon, buttons, glitter, or wrapping paper to personalize your trees however you'd like!
