Gift Bow Wreath
This gift bow wreath is a unique way to bring holiday cheer to your front door. Purchase a floral foam mold and simply stick your gift bows on! We recommend hot gluing the bows or attaching them with straight pins to ensure they stand up against the elements. Purchase a variety of colors and prints to have the cutest wreath on the block.
Festive Place Card Holders
Having guests over for the holidays? Use these adorable reindeer as place card holders for your sit-down meals together. These are a great personal touch for your dining room. Begin by purchasing regular plastic toy deer from the store. Then, use glitter paint to paint their antlers gold and silver, or even red or green. Finally, take your name cards and attach them to the antlers with a small dot of glue. Everyone will be admiring your darling little deer!
Chalk Paint Ornaments
We know how decorating with chalk paint around your home has been all the recent rage. Did you know that you can make ornaments with this paint as well? Paint over plain ornaments with chalk paint and then decorate with a white paint pen. You can doodle your own holiday design or personalize them with names or dates. These custom ornaments look just like a chalk board and are the perfect handmade touch for your home.

Paint Chip Wreath
We were not expecting this DIY! It is such a clever use of paint chips. Snag 40 paint chips at a few paint stores to begin the formation of your wreath. The colors are up to you. You can do an ombre effect similar to the pictured wreath, or go crazy with the Christmas colors. Use a pair of scissors to cut leaf shapes out of the swatches and crease them down the center. Hot glue the leaves onto a wire wreath frame and there you have it!
