A group of my blogger pals and I got together to bring the Christmas cheer, virtually of course! Below is a compilation of the 20 homemade Christmas crafts and recipes we created and shared this week. Let me know which is your favorite, or if you’ve recreated any yourself in the comments.
Glitter Cone Tree Christmas Craft
You may recognize these from Wednesday’s blog post because they were my contribution to our Christmas crafts and recipes compilation! Read the full, easy tutorial here.
Fruity Fresh Potpourri
Brittany’s genius DIY not only smells heavenly but is a great gift idea, and easy to make in bulk.
Dollar Store Snow Globe Garland
Crystal is the dollar store QUEEN! She makes the cutest decor and crafts with her incredibly inexpensive finds and this garland is further proof.
Simple Santa Munch
Kettle corn, M&Ms, cake mix and a few more sweet ingredients make up Courtney’s festive snack. It’s a great, family friendly treat. Plus, how cute is her dish?
Felt Tree Christmas Crafts
Emily created this easy craft for younger kiddos to decorate their own Christmas trees out of felt. All you need to recreate this kiddo friendly craft is scissors, glue and felt!
Christmas Tree Brownies
A girl after my own heart, Brittany has covered her already delicious brownies in frosting, my FAVORITE! The festive candies make excellent ornaments and lights, too. They remind me a lot of my family-favorite festive Christmas brownies from a few years ago.
Sugar Cookie Milkshake
I’m for sure trying this one because I LOVE sugar cookies and milkshakes! Devin gets extra style points for matching it to this adorable red and white bottle brush tree, too.
Dollar Tree Hot Chocolate Bar
You know how much I love a good hot cocoa bar, just peep yesterday’s hot cocoa bar reveal blog post! Jennifer’s setup is cohesive, budget-friendly and those peppermint stir sticks are both functional and delicious. Mmmm!
Ornament-filled Vase Christmas Crafts
Anastasia must play from the same book as me because I love using ornaments in a vase for easy decor. We have some in the bowl on our kitchen table as we speak. So practical and simple!
Christmas Breakfast Board
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, even on Christmas. Love that Kimmy is keeping us well-fed prior to all the present opening with her Christmas Breakfast Board. Those cinnamon rolls though…yum!
DIY Dried Fruit Gift Wrap
What a genius idea! Gabby dries out orange slices and adds them to her packages for the freshest, most unique gift wrap touches I’ve ever seen. I definitely have to give this one a try!
Bottle Brush Tree Snow Globes
I can hardly believe how easy these are! They look like something I’d buy from a fancy Christmas display and Rochelle made them for only about $3 each. These are perfect for gift baskets or smaller displays.
Make Christmas Cookies
Brook took some time off from decorating to make these adorable slice and bake cookies with her littles. loving their matching jammies, too!
Homemade Handprint Ornaments
A total Christmas classic, these ornaments are inexpensive and fun to make. Plus, you can keep for years to come. They’re also great for your fur babies prints!
Making a Nugget Christmas Tree
Noelle made a Nugget tree! As a non-parent, I’m to understand a Nugget tree is a tree made out of Nugget brand play items. It’s a super cute concept and I love how she decorated with all these soft, educational pieces.
Yarn Covered Foam Cone Christmas Trees
Similar to my foam cone craft, Mariah made foam cone trees covered in beautiful blush yarn topped with a star. I love the texture these bring, and how timeless these are, especially if you opt to make them with white yarn.
Hot Chocolate Charcuterie Board
Jenna made a hot cocoa charcuterie board and oh my word! I had no idea such a thing existed but I’m glad it does! Also absolutely love all her Rae Dunn in the background, a woman after my own heart.
Transforming Photo Frames for Christmas
How smart is Laura!? She replaced her photos with Christmas cards for an added touch of festive decor on her built-ins. Super easy and a great way to reuse past year’s Christmas cards.
Hot Chocolate Bombs
I was so pumped to see Stephanie share these because I’m planning to make them next week! I’ll be using these molds from Amazon, if you’re looking for a recommendation.

Ashley is sharing her holiday gift guide and her beautifully decorated, colorful tree. It’s just my color scheme!
