How to Make Holiday Crafts
-
Use appropriate colors
Stick to the theme of your holiday. Use greens and reds for the festive season and shades of orange for Halloween. -
Make a wreath for Christmas
Twist a wire coat hanger into a ring. Decorate it with flowers and small leafy branches. Finish it off by spraying with snow in a can. -
Carve pumpkins for Halloween
Trace a design on the pumpkin. Cut out a lid and remove the flesh. Carve out your design. Place a lit candle inside and replace the lid. -
Make a 4th of July banner
Cut red, white, and blue craft paper into flag-shaped pieces. Lay them out, alternating between the three colors, then staple to a string. -
Make waxed leaves for Thanksgiving
Melt paraffin wax in a small crock pot. Dip various fall leaves into the wax. Fresher leaves yield better results.
