Yarn Art Jingle Trees are the next project in our 12 Days of Christmas. I have seen many of these trees adorned in chunky yarn online and in stores. I always see these and think I can make them myself! So I did!
With a few simple tools and a skein of chunky yarn, I was able to assemble these two adorable trees! I added tinsel poms to give a cute burst of color, but you can be as creative and simple as you like!
Chunky Yarn (I used Hometown Yarn from Lion Brand Yarn)
Hot Glue Gun
Hot Glue Sticks
Dowel Rod (small)
Wooden coaster or something for the base
Puff balls (optional)
First we wrapped the cones in yarn using hot glue to help them stick. (Disclaimer: Be EXTREMELY careful with the hot glue, do not burn yourself, it is very difficult to glue and wrap, so maybe having 2 sets of hands to help will be useful)
Once you have them completely wrapped in yarn, stick a dowel rod through the bottom center, then stick the rod into the wooden coaster.
Add puff balls with hot glue to the outside of the tree as well. Add a star on top if you want too! Enjoy!!
On the 8th Day of Christmas I bring to you this sweet treat!! These Candy Curl Swirl Ornaments are such a quick and easy craft you can add to your tree and make it “lolli-POP” this holiday season! Follow along with the video tutorial and written instructions below.

If anyone is looking for a rustic holiday decoration, I have just the thing for you! I did these easy jute covered balloon balls and they turned out so awesome. Below you can see my step by step process from start to finish. This idea has me thinking in all kinds of creative directions using string art to decorate for the holidays. I may have to make more! In the meantime check out my picture tutorial and follow along today.
First I gathered all the supplies I needed. (See photo above)
Water Balloons, Scissors, Paint brush, Mod Podge, and Jute.
I also used rubber gloves and a tupperware container that are not pictured.
I blew up the balloons to be mini balls, and then I added the Mod Podge to the tupperware container.
I proceeded to dunk the jute into the mod podge and then wrap it around the balloon using my rubber gloves for protection.
I wrapped about 20 times.
Then I used the paint brush to reinforce the mod podge to the jute.
I let it dry for 24 hours.
Once it was all dry, I popped the balloon and removed it from the middle of the ball.
The jute stayed in place!! Woohoo!! I then used a tweezer to get any extra mod podge out of the gaps and make the ball look cleaner.
I added an ornament hook to the ball and hung it on my tree!
The Winding Ribbon Tree Ornament is decorated with beads to give nice detail to our 3rd in our 12 days of Christmas series! Today I have a very simple, but VERY lovely ornament tutorial.
This is a picture tutorial and pattern showing step by step the creating and assembly process.
By simply making a crochet ribbon by doing a Foundation Half Double Crochet and curling it back and forth, separating each section by beads, you end up with this tiny tree. I did a Foundation Half Double Crochet of 120 stitches.
Follow along with this video to learn how to do the Foundation Half Double Crochet:
Perfect for hanging on the branches of your Christmas tree or adorning the top of your holiday gifts, this easy handmade detail will be sure to wow everyone this season!
This entire process from start to finish will take you less than 30 minutes, but looks like you spent a lot more time than that making this ornament.
Make these in a variety of colors to give your tree a bright and festive look!

Every once in a while I like to change things up from the “traditional” to a little bit of a “non-traditional” decor. This bow garland is the perfect way to make that change but still keep with a lovely touch during the holiday season. Using this garland, you can trim your tree, hang in a doorway, or swag it along a banister. This adds a lovely touch to the festive feel of your home this holiday.
I created mine in a multi-colored strand, but your creativity should know no bounds when creating your very own. A combination of red and green, silver and gold, or solid white would all be wonderful ways to display this garland for Christmas.
This project would also be great for a baby nursery or a party decoration! Have fun making yours!
Follow along with this crochet tutorial to make your bow garland today!
