Hey guys!! Christmas is coming! \r
I hope you like my DIY decorations for the season.\r
\r
For the first one, start off with a piece of white cardstock and make a cone with it, you can also use any premade cones you have. Cut out the excess from the bottom.\r
Then take a white feather boa and glue it down all around the cone with some hot glue. Continue like that until you reach the top of the cone. Then, cut any excess feather that is very out of place. Take some little ornaments or balls and glue them all around the tree, they dont have to be these ex ones of course, I also made a little bow and I glue it to the top of my tree. And finally, as it was too white, I took some red and green pompoms and I glued them all around my tree.\r
And its done! This is the perfect way to make a mini Christmas tree to decorate your room.\r
For the advent calendar, start with a bunch of candy bars like this or any kind of sweets of your choice. Then wrap them as they were little gifts or present, you can use wrapping paper, brown paper or anything you have at home. Decorate the little packages with some ribbon or washi tape, you can also give the packages the shape of sweets like this one and tie some cords at the ends, so yeah, go ahead and use your imagination to make lots of different designs. Remember to make 25 of them.\r
Then, I made some little circles with the numbers inside, you can also draw them if you want and cut them out. Tape them to little pins like this one, you can also use regular clothes pins, and pin them to your little packages.\r
As you see, I already have in my room a place where I hang all my pictures. It s just regular cord hung from some command hooks and then some fairy lights wrapped around it. So I took down the pictures and I hung up the advent calendar. \r
I think it looks super nice with the fairy lights, and if you try this make sure you hang them really well so they dont fall. \r
The last idea is really really simple. Take a plain pillow and a piece of red tulle, wrap it around the pillow and make a couple of knots. Then take another tulle piece of the same size and wrap it around the other two sides, pass the ends under the first knot and make another knot. \r
Finally take shorter pieces of tulle pass one end under the big knot and make another knot. Repeat this with three or four more pieces. \r
Finally gather all the ends together and cut them like so, so they all have the same length. Make them all fluffy and thats it!\r
As you see this was super simple to make, I hope the instructions were clear, but leave me a comment if you didnt understand something and I will try my best to answer.\r
