Tip 5: Making your own Christmas decorations
If you are a little creative and enjoy making something yourself, Christmas is of course an ideal time to do something with this. We give you some fun craft projects as tips for making your own Christmas decorations:
Make a beautiful Christmas wreath from pine branches or eucalyptus. Decorate the wreath with Christmas lights and hang it on the wall or on the front door. A guaranteed success!

Christmas is about coziness and being together. Therefore, the dining table is a place that deserves extra attention! For example, make your own candle holders, and make unique name plates and a menu card on beautiful Christmas paper to complete the atmosphere.
Make your own little Christmas trees out of paper maché -or plain paper- for the window frame or mantelpiece. Or, if you're not bringing a real Christmas tree into the house this year, you can of course opt for a homemade, creative version. A self-designed Christmas tree on the wall is a nice touch, but a fake tree made of branches is also a super cute alternative to a traditional tree!
