DIY Christmas Crafts from Facebook Friends Part 2

I’m so lucky to be surrounded by creative and crafty people. There are so many awesome ideas to share! I asked friends on my SohoSonnet Creative Living Facebook Page to send me their Christmas crafts and I got some great stuff back. You might have already seen my first round up of ideas but if you didn’t you should check that out. Ok so here it is DIY Christmas Crafts from Facebook Friends Part 2, in the order that I received them!

Thank you to my friend Bryn for sharing these awesome DIY Acorn ornaments that she made with her kids. She has a 200ft oak tree in her backyard with tons of acorns so she decided to put them to some use. She hot glued an ornament hook to the cap, then painted Elmer’s with a brush and covered with glitter. If you spray coat with krylon to seal the glitter won’t shed. DIY Christmas Crafts

This ornament wreath was made by Claire Gould. I believe that she hot glued the ornamaments onto a wreath mold. If you are interested in doing this I suggest hitting up the dollar store, tubes of ornaments for 1$!

Dena Darroch made this awesome holiday card holder that doubles as Christmas decoration for your wall. She also incorporated artwork done by her 18month old Juliette which is an adorable touch.

Dena also made this cute Christmas basket for her family (husband and daughter) to open on Christmas Eve! It includes pajamas and slippers for everyone, the night before Christmas book, a santa sippy cup, 2 winter ale beers, popcorn and hot chocolate. Everything they need for that night and the next morning!

My friend Laura Mandaville was inspired by my GARDEN FRAME GARLAND TODDLER TREE POST . She made her son Jack his own little tree out of a garden frame, garland and child safe paint chip ornaments she made herself. So clever!

Last craft I have is from my sister Megan Saint-Evens. This is her Christmas Card holder made out of Fabric and Burlap! Sadly our family Christmas card is not yet hanging on her holder because I need to send them out! I should stop blogging now and do that.
