16 FAVOURITE CHRISTMAS TREE DECORATIONS FOR YOU TO DIY.

Have you got your tree up yet? We put ours up this weekend so it's definitely beginning to feel a lot more like Christmas around here. We've got quite a few store bought decorations on the tree but I think it's the homemade ones that can make a tree look extra special so why not spruce up your tree with one of these 16 diy tree ornaments.

So pretty and you’re giving an item a second life as well!

Before the snow starts falling in earnest, collect some pinecones on your next walk around the neighbourhood or park – they’re just perfect for turning into these playful ornaments!

DIY Gumball Machine Ornaments

 This would be such a fun one to make with your kids or for those of you with food-themed trees!

Leather Christmas Ornament

It’s clean, minimal, and simple. It doesn’t compete with the other ornaments for attention. Instead, it complements and blends well with the very cherished, multi-coloured, paint smudged kid ornaments that adorn trees as well.

Knit Candy Cane Ornament

What Christmas tree is complete without a candy cane? The perfect red and clear white hues come together to make a classic candy cane.

DIY Needle Felted Christmas Star Tree Ornaments

Black and white together is classic and easily goes with any colour, including the all-important bronze, gold or silver (because you’ve always got to have at least one shiny, bling it up colour at Christmas!)

DIY Circus Animal Cookie Ornaments

I’m pretty obsessed with how easy we made the ornament so you guys could recreate it! It’s just our fave clay and pom poms! You can make a whole circus animal cookie ornament safari.

This design is a lovely little decoration arrangement for a smaller Christmas Tree you can have around the house to brighten up the room a little!

Embroidered Felt Wool Ornament DIY

This post was 100% inspired by the wool dryer balls I bought online last month! I had the pack of six sitting in my studio for a week before I finally remembered to use them, and one day it just hit me that they would make the perfect base for embroidered ornaments.

DIY Christmas Ornaments

These little ornaments are cheap and easy to make while still being a very beautiful addition to your Christmas decor!

DIY Rudolph Ornaments

I thought the ornaments would make some mighty cute Rudolphs too! They’re the easiest too. Just another project where I pledge my love for a hot glue gun.

DIY Clay Christmas Decorations

I'm a big fan of air dry clay. I love making things with it. There's no baking or kiln needed, all you need to do is roll, cut and stamp and leave to dry.

DIY Last Minute Dessert Ornaments

I’m sure your donut-loving friends would be thrilled to get an ornament that shows their dessert love this year!

Clothespin People Ornaments

Say goodbye to boring globe ornaments, this year we’re trimming our tree with handmade clothespin people ornaments! Dressed in bright colours, ear muffs, and mittens, these make for adorable ornaments.
