Beautiful Christmas DIY Ideas

Hi, friends! Can you believe it’s almost December?? This year has FLOWN by! I have been busy decorating and creating Christmas crafts and decor. It’s so fun! This week we are sharing beautiful Christmas DIY ideas you can use to transform your home into a holiday wonderland!

New Projects

This week I shared one of my favorite wreath ideas – a disco ball wreath! When I was in middle school I spent SO much time at the roller rink with my friends. I still love to roller skate. So I thought it would be perfect to create a DIY Disco Ball Holiday Wreath! I love how to sparkles in the sunlight and firelight. It’s so pretty! I have all of the links to the supplies and directions in my blog post! I think you can leave it up through January if you want!

Christmas DIY Ideas

Here are some of my favorite Christmas ideas. I hope they give you some inspiration!

Colorful Holiday Ornament Hoop Wreath

Create a stunning holiday wreath with inexpensive ornaments, faux greens and a simple embroidery hoop.

Christmas Countdown Printables

Print off these adorable stockings with fun family holiday activities on the back. Your kids will love seeing the days count down and you will make so many family memories!

Paper Christmas Countdown Calendar

12 Days of Christmas Paper Countdown Calendar. Your kids will love counting down the days and opening a small treat each day with this easy paper project!

12 days of Christmas Metal Countdown Calendar with free printables

Metal Christmas Advent Countdown Calendar. It’s a great way to count down the days until the holiday, but it can also be more. I want to show my kids how awesome service is. So each day under the number is an activity we can do together to help others.

Bright and Colorful Mantel Ideas

This was one of my favorite mantels. I used a large branch and hung embroidery hoops above and a little Christmas village on the mantel. Joy to the World is the theme.

Gold and White Christmas

I loved how sparkly this theme was. I also have plan on how to make the DIY tree basket.

Happy Saturday, friends! How was your week? I spent the week finishing up some work deadlines and getting our home ready for my son to come home from school.

Easy Christmas Recipes

Here are a few of our favorite Christmas recipes to make this week!

Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies

Chocolate Marshmallow Cookies are so easy to make, no chill time required, which is always a plus when you want a cookie now- not tomorrow. I love these cookies because they look so pretty, which makes them perfect for those holiday parties or giving away as neighbor gifts.

Chocolate Chip Christmas Cookie Sticks

Chocolate Chip Cookie Sticks are festive with frosting and sprinkles and are the perfect shape for dipping into hot cocoa!

Graham cracker Toffee

This toffee is super quick and easy so it wins the mom approved award.

Candy Cane Oreo Pie

Candy Cane Oreo Pie is so simple & what a crowd pleaser too. Chocolate, oreos & a hint of peppermint. Absolutely delightful.

Welcome Home Saturday

Happy Saturday, friends! Can you believe that Thanksgiving is this week?? November is flying by. I always look forward to Thanksgiving but this year even more so since my son moved to Portland. He is coming home and our family will be reunited. So of course I want to make this Thanksgiving extra memorable. I am sharing some things I will be doing this Thanksgiving as well as holiday ideas I love!

Beautiful Holiday Ideas

Have you decorated for Christmas yet? I am still working on mine. I have about half of the ornaments on our main tree and I think it is going to be so colorful and happy! I am also redoing my office and side porch right now. I hope to finish up the side porch this weekend as well as my front porch, and hopefully all of the holiday decorating so I can put all of my bins away haha!

Organize Your Creative Space

I’ve had so many questions about my Dream Box since I have had it the past four years. It is truly my favorite thing! I use it every single day. Before I had my Dream Box I had craft and office supplies spread throughout the house. I haven’t had a dedicated craft room for the past few houses. I have turned the formal living rooms into my office. The only draw back is that the rooms are at the front of the house and the first thing you see when you come inside. So having all of my supplies in one place has been huge. I love that I can open up the Dream Box and work on projects and then close it at night and it looks so clean and pretty!

My friends at Create Room are running the BEST special of the year for black friday — 15% of EVERYTHING they sell! That includes my dream box! And now you can get a Dream Box for as low as $52 per month. So affordable! Hop over and see all of the ways they can help you get ornganized!! And use the code TATERTOTSMASSIVE JOY to unlock the 15% off!

New Projects

This week I shared a few new tutorials!

3 Colorful falalala Prints

I love printable art because it is inexpensive and INSTANT decor! I created three coordinating falalala prints. You can prihttps://tatertotsandjello.com/falalala-three-colorful-holiday-signs/nt them off in different sizes and arrange them almost anywhere. I also shared a black and white version too! I shared how to send them off to be printed in larger sizes for sam-day printing!

Gingerbread Tabletop Tree

I created a darling gingerbread-themed kitchen tree. And a hack to make gingerbread decorated cookies in minutes!

5-Minute Boho Tassel Ornaments

These tassel ornaments are seriously SO easy to make. Make some with your kids this weekend. They would also be the perfect present toppers or little gifts if you have teen girls to give to their friends!

Favorite Things

I’m all about a cozy holiday bedroom. I updated our bedroom for the holidays with some cozy touches and thought it would be fun to share the ideas with you!

How to Make Your Bedroom Cozy for the Holidays

I switched out our lightweight duvet cover for this luxe velvet duvet cover. Mine is blush pink but it also comes in a few different colors including grey, navy and emerald green! It’s so cozy and soft and comes with king pillow shams!

I added the prettiest sand-washed sheets. They are buttery soft and feel so good to slip underneath each night. These sheets come in 14 different colors and cost about half as much as sheet sets in stores.

These sweater pillows are perfect for colder weather. I bought the cream ones but they also come in grey and beige! I added a little christmas tree to our room and now it feel so festive and cozy!
