Upcycling is not a new invention, but it is also great for Christmas decorations. Empty jars of chocolate spread or old Christmas tree baubles get a new temporary purpose. And a decorated matchbox creates a stylish Christmas atmosphere when lighting the candles already in Advent.
Christmas balls say where you sit
A red tree ball is decorated with gold permanent maker and written on. Some evergreen makes this place card look even more festive.
Different balls and shapes can be taken for the Christmas name cards. They all serve their purpose.
A tree ball, an empty toilet paper roll, washi tape or tape to taste, and a permanent maker. That’s all you need for this place card.
Atmospheric chocolate glass
When the chocolate is snapped up, there is still one jar left. Filled with golden sugar pearls it gives a nice atmospheric table light.
Fill the empty chocolate glass with chocolate lentils, stick simple glue dots on the rim of the glass and add a tea light. Done.
You’ll need an empty, clean chocolate or mustard jar, sugar beads, a tea light and matching washi tape for the candle.
Christmas matchbox
The lighting of candles also brings Christmas spirit through these simply pasted matchboxes.
When sticking the matchboxes do not forget the side. One ignition surface remains free to be able to light the matches.
A few scraps of Christmas paper and a glue stick are all you need to stick matchboxes to your liking.
