Home | Home & Family | Holidays Many fun decorations can be made with simple items found around the house. These Christmas decoration ideas can be made with kids for an added touch of fun. Some free Christmas decoration ideas include paper chains, popcorn garland, and, the ever popular, felt and glitter ornaments. You can also use evergreens to make decoration pieces around a candle. Chains are a great way to decorate your house and your Christmas tree. Chains are very easy to make using paper. Use newspapers, magazines, or packaging material, and cut strips out of them. Take the first strip and form a ring. Glue the ends together and stick the second strip through the ring you just formed. Connect the ends and keep going to form a nice long chain. Use different colors for a festive chain for your Christmas tree or any other part of your house. Another fun Christmas decoration that is easy to make and takes little time, effort or money, is a popcorn garland. First, prepare the popcorn. Secondly, get a thread the length of the garland. Thread the needle and stick the needle through the middle of the popped kernels, until the popcorn covers the whole thread. Knot the end of the threat and use your garland to decorate your tree or any other place in your house. In our family this Christmas decoration has been a tradition for as long as I can remember. Every year my mom would bring out her felt, glitters and the hot glue gun and me and my siblings would craft ornaments for each other and for our parents. We would cut felt in the shape we liked. We would attach an object to the felt and cover the Christmas ornament with glitters. After attaching a string we would hand out the ornaments to each of the family members and we would decorate the tree each with our own Christmas ornament. Give it a try and before you know you will have started a great family tradition that everybody looks forward to, year after year. Making your own Christmas decorations will give the entire family a sense of accomplishments and it is a great way to spent time with your parents and siblings. Coming up with Christmas decoration ideas keeps the creative juices flowing and it brings the holiday spirit to your house. Nobody will forget these precious moments.
