DIY Christmas Trees

 

“The Christmas tree is a symbol of love, not money.”

As soon as you reach mid-November, the stores and streets are all bright and lit – with Christmas trees! Dark green branches peep out from shiny baubles and cute figurines, resulting in a sight for sore eyes.

10 DIY Christmas Trees you can Make without a Tree

You can find all sizes of Christmas trees anywhere, online or in stores. But you can still have a Christmas tree without emptying your wallet – you just need to make one yourself! There are all kinds of Christmas trees you can make with recycled materials or things lying around the house. Here are some amazing ideas that you can make with the whole family.

1. Geometric Paint Chip Christmas Tree

DIY Christmas Trees

Christmas trees don’t have to be all green; in fact once you decorate the tree, it’s multicolored. We are Scout celebrates this with a lovely Christmas tree made of paint chips in geometric shapes. This would be a great activity for kids to put together!

2. Chalkboard Christmas Tree

While this would be a great idea for a classroom by default, it’s also an excellent last minute option for your home! One Legg Up makes quite an intricately detailed Christmas tree on chalkboard. You can use chalkboard sticker sheets on the wall to create your tree on.

3. Book Christmas Tree

DIY Christmas Trees

It’s said that you can never have too many books, but if you do, here’s an excellent way to use them! Very Merry Vintage Style creates a cute Christmas tree with books. You can make it more colorful by placing the spines of the books facing outwards.

4. PVC Pipe Christmas Tree

DIY Christmas Trees

PVC pipes and Christmas trees? Seems like two different worlds, but Martha Stewart brings them together in this fun project! If you can’t get PVC pipes cut to the size you want, you can also use cardboard tube rolls or anything else that’ll make it work.

5. Hanging Christmas Tree Mobile

DIY Christmas Trees

Who says Christmas Trees should be on the ground! This one from Curbly that hangs up in the air is such a clever idea and looks pretty magical!! What’s more, there’s plenty of space underneath for gifts!

6. Felt Christmas Tree

DIY Christmas Trees

If you have little kids, then Two Twenty One has the perfect project for you – a felt Christmas tree! Download the free patterns, and cut them out on felt. Then hand the pieces to the kids and let them decorate it the way they like!!

7. Ladder Christmas Tree

DIY Christmas Trees

If you’ve got a step ladder at home, then you don’t need to think any further! With a few garlands and string lights, a basic wooden ladder can be turned into a gorgeous Christmas tree. The best part is that you don’t have to hang the ornaments, just place them on the steps!

8. Washi Tape Card Tree

DIY Christmas Trees

Washi tape isn’t just for little crafts, it’s also perfect for a large size Christmas tree! Find out the details at Thyme is Honey – this tree is the perfect idea to display all those holiday cards that people have sent so lovingly! And it’s quite an open ended tree – you can add anything you like to it!

9. Ornament Christmas Tree

DIY Christmas Trees

You’d think that you can have a tree without ornaments but not the other way round. Well, An Alli Event proves otherwise, with a Christmas tree built entirely from colorful ornaments! Great idea if you have leftover ornaments from previous years!

10. Branch Christmas Tree

DIY Christmas Trees

We can’t get over how simple but elegant this nature-inspired tree fromΒ Uberall and Nirgendwo looks! Once you collect some twigs, it’s just a matter of cutting them to size, joining them with rope and then decorate to your heart’s content!

Now, aren’t these some unique and creative ideas? So which one did you like the most?

  • When you kickstart the week with some pampering you know it's going to be as blissful week ahead. A fabulous head, shoulder and foot massage is what I needed to unwind and chase those blues away. 
And when you end up using one your favorite brands it makes the day brighter @seersecrets loved the oils used by @urbanclapbeauty. More massages are in order!

  • Something fascinating about a lotus. All the time. #lotusflower #lotus
  • I have used products of @peesafe ;  mostly the TSS that I buy often. When I came across this cramp relief roll-on, I wanted to give it a try. And boy, I was disappointed.
They have started a range of products for women and this is the first product I tried.

It is supposed to alleviate pain and cramp that one usually faces during the periods. To be honest, I picked it up solely because there was nothing similar available in the market. I thought this would be a game changer. But its not. I felt zero relief when I used it. I used it at the onset of pain and during the pain.

Let me list my views

Pros
- Stain free
- Easy to carry. It's a small roll-on bottle that can be dunked anywhere.
- Could feel a slight tingling on the back but not effective enough to remotely reduce the pain. Had to use my pain patches.

Cons
- Doesn't work for those who have severe cramping.
- Didn't notice any difference on the abdominal pain
- Too mild for period pain
- Has a slightly strong fragrance

It works better for my headaches than the periods.  So the one good part is that I can still use it. :)

  • Happiness is space for things you love. I finally managed to put up the handmade showcase to show off some of my collection of #starbucksmugs. I am in love with this space and look. Do you have a collection that you are possessive about too? Honestly a lot of credit goes to my friends who know about  my obsession and get a mug for me when they  travelling. My friends, you know who you are! 
I missed day 2 of #100daysofhappiness yesterday,  so here it is today. Happiness is my collection of my @starbucks mugs. @starbucksindia
