Homemade Christmas Decoration

• Decorate the mantel with tree trim and place poinsettia flowers, pinecones and pomegranates within it.
• Place trim on balconies and banisters and hand pomegranates as ornamentation in between the trim.
• Twine cranberry beads in between the Christmas tree trim.
• Tie cinnamon sticks with ribbons and tie in between trim.
• Place tree trim in an elegant glass bowl, add pinecones, small pomegranates, apples and ornaments to the bowl and place it on the table as a centerpiece decoration. You can add tiny handmade paper snowflakes on top.

• Cut old greeting cards and make name cards. Write the name of the person on the blank side of the card.
• Use a pinecone as a holder and fit the card into it.
• Decorate with ribbon or festive fabric.

• Take brightly colored fabric and cut into strips measuring .5 by 5.
• Take old napkin rings and tie these strips with a single knot around these rings.
• Using a needle string dried cranberries onto a thick thread.
• Tied these strings to the rag rings.

• Hang things that have a special significance to you on the Christmas tree like, you baby's first shoe or your husband's first Christmas.
• Tie cookie cutters with ribbons and hang from tree.
• Hang pomegranate on the tree instead of buying Christmas ornamentation.
