You sold digitally printed Christmas Tree fabric a few years ago - so I snapped some up - cut it to a manageable size, sewed two together - pinning and sandwiching some Christmas lights in between and using your curtain rings attached it to my curtain rail - so i now have an annual Christmas tree that doesn’t drop pine needles and takes up no room in my small living room, and helps keep the heat in!  And it looks nice from the street.

And then adding some VISSVASS to a home made ‘scavenged’ wreath adds more warmth to the room (using LADDA rechargeable batteries)

I love this! it 100% looks like a real tree in your home!

I’ve just made the fabric Christmas crackers which can be reused year after year. I decorated some with stamps and ink, and some I embroidered freehand on a regular sewing machine (it’s like free hand drawing but with a sewing machine)

These look gorgeous!

This is what I did with a glass vase that I bought at IKEA for some dried lavender I had in the Spring. My grandma had a snowy twig left over from her decorations that she didn’t have a use for and I found the baubles in my local charity shop. I wound some lights I had left over from our wedding last year round it too so it glows at night. By far my favourite decoration I’ve made this year!

This looks beautiful. Always a favourite when you've put so much time and effort into something homemade

My 11 year old made a Christmas tree and star out of reed sticks - she made the little penguin out of clay - it’s her favourite bird

This is very impressive. Make sure you tell your little one we love it!

We make homemade decorations for our own tree and gifts for family each year, it’s always something simple so I enjoy it as well as my son. This year we made small snowflake fans from some recycled pages of an old book, last year we made wood and wool angels and the year before it was tiny air-dry clay stars printed with foliage from the garden and a little gold paint. We just love Christmas, but especially sharing these moments together crafting and creating.

My Christmas decoration idea is to use the GLÄNSA Hanging decoration, electric, ring shaped white light and turn it into a Christmas wreath. I’m using it above my dinning table but it can be used anywhere. It looks absolutely beautiful 😍
