By now we’ve been seeing Christmas decor in just about every store since right around the time Halloween ended. I’ve been seeing some really cute holiday decorating ideas like throw pillows, dish towels, and Christmas bunting, but—maybe because they know we won’t have it displayed for very long—all of it has seemed to be very poor quality, and since right about now is when most people start to decorate for the holidays the prices are high, too. I don’t know about you, but I’m not a big fan of the idea of spending lots of money on a decoration that might not even stay together long enough to re-use next year! Fortunately, there’s an easy solution—simply make your Christmas decorations yourself!
With a needle and thread and a little creativity, you can whip up these easy DIY Christmas decorations for your home just in time for the holiday season! You’ll have a reliable decoration that can be brought out year after year, and best of all, many of these sewing projects can be made using fabric scraps that you already have lying around so there’s no budget trouble, either.
