Make your season both merry and bright with these clever homemade ornaments, centerpieces, and other craft ideas.
Advent Calendar
Count down the days until Christmas with little paper envelopes, sized to hold all sorts of surprises: candy, tickets, tiny toys. Use rubber stamps to ink the dates, and other motifs, on the envelopes. You can also embellish them by adding tags, string, washi tape, and clip art.
Photo Wreath
To make your own photo arrangement, hot-glue a selection of black-and-white snapshots (use copies if you're worried about ruining the originals) to a wire wreath form.
Paper Gift Packets
Let warm woolen mittens and other soft goods shine—sans box—by layering two pieces of kraft paper together and drawing your chosen shape on the top piece. Cut through both layers of paper, then sandwich a gift between the two shapes and stitch along the edges using contrasting thread.
Ornamental Decorating
Reserve a special spot for treasured ornaments by showcasing them inside a shadow box: Line the frame backing with bright wrapping paper, then affix your decorations with double-sided adhesive pads.
