Christmas is approaching fast and you’ve barely noticed. Don’t panic, a bit of DIY and some creativity will save the day. Original decoration ideas, but above all cheap: here are our 5 cheap Christmas decoration ideas.
- The wall-mounted tree:
If you have very little space at home or simply fear that your cat might cause damage to your tree, then consider a wall-mounted tree! To do this, you need green fir branches, double-sided tape and a pair of scissors. Simply cut the fir branches to different sizes and stick them to the wall in parallel, placing the smallest branch at the top. To obtain fir branches, take a look at what the Christmas tree seller has or take the branches they don’t need. Alternatively, cut garlands can very well replace fir branches. You can lightly decorate your wall-mounted tree.
- A magical table centrepiece:
Tonight, whether you’re serving turkey or not, you’d like to dine in an atmosphere that evokes the gentle Christmas nights. You need terracotta pots, small white candles, fir branches and holly. Place the candle in the pot and decorate it with fir branches and holly. Caution: be sure to put a base under the candle so that the branches and holly don’t catch fire.
- Pasta garlands:
Yes, you read correctly. The famous butterfly pasta or farfalle will serve as Christmas decorations. You simply need some paint and a few glitters. Dip your pasta in the paint or paint them with a brush, sprinkle them with glitter and tie them together with string and tadaa! Here are stylish garlands at low cost!
- Paper snowflakes
Time for a bit of practical work with paper snowflakes. It’s time to download some patterns online to make pretty paper snowflakes to stick on the wall. To do this, couldn’t be simpler: get out your scissors, old wrapping paper in all colours and create as many paper snowflakes in different sizes to make a mural that will catch the eye. Respect the spacing and play with the dimensions so as not to overcrowd your wall.
- Elegant place cards
A white cardstock sheet pierced with a sprig of rosemary and handwritten writing can be enough to bring chic and elegance to your table. What’s more natural and more flavourful than this quick and easy place card! You’re not much of a calligrapher? You can always print the names on the printer. You’ll need a small hole punch to create this cheap decoration.
For children and adults, big and small budgets, nothing could be simpler than creating a festive atmosphere during this end-of-year period!
