Cranberry Christmas Decorative DIYs

Most love to fill their home with festive decor during the Christmas season.

I know that I don't have the funds to splurge on all of the seasonal decorations I would like.

That's ok though, because...

DIYs are a unique and affordable way to bring the Christmas spirit into your home!

I've found some classic & simple ideas...

utilizing cranberries!

• all you need is toothpicks, an assortment of foam balls & random glass, silver or wooden candlesticks...oh, and fresh cranberries (of course).
• stick the cranberries all around the foam balls with toothpicks and place on top of candlesticks!

*I have found random candlesticks at consignment shops on several occasions (always ~$1)

• you will need fresh cranberries, pearl-head pins and foam cones
• pin the cranberries around the cones!

*craft stores carry the foam shapes

• you will need fresh cranberries, various wooden beads  a needle and some sort of line (string, twine, etc)
• string the berries and beads onto the line & drape the garland into loose swags over mantel, door...or anywhere you so desire!

Not store bought, but so beautiful...and...

a completely unique decoration made by you.

I hope your Christmas season is already full of many blessings...

and festive decor ;).
