Handcrafted ornaments aren’t just for kids anymore! Have fun putting baubles and natural elements together to make dynamic room, mantel, or table accents. Try one of these 9 options for your home.
1. Fill a glass vase with a simple string of lights, then closed the gaps with bright and sparkly ornaments.
2. Mix snowflake lights with simple red balls for a brilliant pairing.
3. Hot glue mini lights to twigs, then place them in a large container—what a great way to repurpose that brass umbrella stand!
4. How lovely are these hurricane lamps filled with pillar candles, surrounded by real berries!
5. Start with a strip of white lights and shiny balls, and see magic happen in the sweetest way.
6. Fill a wine glass with foil-wrapped candies and secure with clear tape or plastic wrap. Then invert to make the perfect base for a pillar candle.
7. Twisted copper wire turns easily into a bright display that’s perfect for a rustic décor home.
8. Look at how beautifully moss balls, dried flowers and sea anemone shape up inside a crystalline bell jar. Embrace nature, especially items in holiday colors like white, gold or green.
