5 Cosy Festive DIYs

 

Spending the holidays at home, surrounded by loved ones, is a special moment in our year when we can escape daily life, and retreat to cosy moments or familial hubbub. Holiday traditions are comforting, and grounding, and setting the scene is absolutely part of what makes it all so special. Why not try creating a few home-made festive decorations this year? Here are a few ideas:

1. Make your own star or snowflake light - follow Sarah Macfie’s instastories how-to here.

2. Freeze outdoor candleholders to light your entryway or garden - try this Søstrene Grene how-to video

3. Make a minimalist wreath to liven up your empty wall or replace a frame - try my tips on my instastories here.
