5 ideas for zero-waste Christmas activities/decorations that are really fun!

If you haven't finished decorating for the holidays or you're looking for activities to do with the little ones or friends, here are some really fun DIY ideas that require no talent and will brighten up your home!

Garlands of hens

Create a beautiful garland with just two ingredients: a rope and pine cones! Hang it on your tree, in front of a window, above a bed, etc. You can also make baubles by hanging a pine cone with a pretty bow from a rope.

Dry your oranges!

Save your slightly less beautiful oranges, dehydrate them in the oven and make beautiful garlands. They also look great simply placed on the table :)

(And they smell so good when they're in the oven...I freak out every time!)

Paper decorations

Folding, cutting, and gluing. Three words that repeat themselves over and over again to create beautiful decorative shapes! Use old newspapers, cardboard boxes, kraft paper, or whatever you have on hand.

Don't throw away your rolls anymore!

Yes, a roll of toilet paper can have charm, as proven by the photos below :)

Draw on your windows

Our last suggestion, but not least: the one I do every year! Print out some really beautiful Christmas drawings (or anything else, it works for any occasion!) and trace them onto the windows witha chalk marker .

This is where I found the most beautiful templates and I advise you to follow this artist, she is truly inspiring!

There you go! Which one will you try first?

And don't forget to share your creations or other ideas with us, winter is long and we have to keep busy ;)
