Most look better than store bought, and can be customized making them the perfect keepsake gift. We wouldn’t be embarrassed gifting these to friends and family. These DIY ornaments are easy enough for even a kid to make yet pretty enough for teens and adults to love. So we collected the ultimate list to choose from every year. In recent years we decided we wanted to give our niece and nephew handmade Christmas ornaments as gifts instead of store bought ones, but let’s be honest, DIY Christmas ornaments can sometimes be eye sores. This way we know they’ll be left with a personal collection to remember us by every Christmas and a reminder of their interests year after year. We started a tradition in our family of giving our niece and nephew a Christmas ornament every year representing something they love.
You can even make a separate section for adult ornament making and another section for kids! Just pick which supplies you want to work with : Sharpies, popsicle sticks, seashells, sequins or beads and you’ll have a blast with your friends and family making gorgeous ornaments they’ll keep forever. This year if you’re thinking of holding a gingerbread house decorating party for kids why not hold an ornament making party instead. DIY Christmas ornaments gift and party idea alert!
