Want to hang something fun and personal on the tree quickly? Then get to work with see-through baubles. Find them second-hand - at the thrift store or via apps like Vinted or Marktplaats - and fill them with anything you like. Think feathers, buttons, beads, dried flowers or even a small note. This Christmas craft is simple and quick. This also makes it a cool idea for a personalised Christmas present for friends & family. They also match nicely with these DIY Christmas cards made from scrap paper.
Sprucing up a transparent bauble
Transparent baubles might seem a bit boring? But what about when you start filling them. And that filling? It can be as creative, personal or simple as you like. Think shiny beads, a bunch of dried flowers, bits of ribbon or even a sweet note. There is a lot of everything in the thrift store, especially during the Christmas period. Anything small that fits in the ball can be put in, which makes this DIY so much fun.
