What is in one year is pass\u00e9 the next. The Christmas tree - and especially the decoration - has become very trendy. Are you also starting to get the itch and fancy something new on the tree? Then give your old baubles a <em>upgrade<\/em> with a simple ball of string. Good for your wallet, better for the planet and with these DIY Christmas balls, you'll make your tree fit really stand out from the rest.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DIY rope baubles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Around the holidays, we throw away a lot together. From wrapping paper to plastic <em>bling<\/em> for the tree: the mountain of waste grows every year. By reusing or pimping up decorations, you not only save money, but also resources and emissions. And believe us: homemade Christmas decorations are just so much more fun. You make something unique that no one else has and that makes you happy. Besides, this DIY is really easy. You don't have to be a tinkerer. With some string, glue and old baubles, you're all set. And because it is a repetitive job, it is also ideal to do with children. Turn on a cosy Christmas playlist, put an old newspaper on the table and before you know it, you have a whole collection of new \u2018rope balls\u2019 for the tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div

Or be surprised by what ropes and balls of wool you can find at the charity shop.<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-meta-container wprm-recipe-times-container wprm-recipe-details-container wprm-recipe-details-container-table wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-table-borders-top-bottom wprm-recipe-table-borders-inside\" style=\"border-width: 1px;border-style: solid;border-color: #e0e0e0;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-table wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-cook-time-container\" style=\"border-width: 1px;border-style: solid;border-color: #e0e0e0;\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-faded wprm-recipe-time-label wprm-recipe-cook-time-label\">Making<\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-time wprm-block-text-normal\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-cook_time wprm-recipe-cook_time-minutes\">15<span class=\"sr-only screen-reader-text wprm-screen-reader-text\"> minutes<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-unit wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-cook_time-unit wprm-recipe-cook_timeunit-minutes\" aria-hidden=\"true\">mins<\/span><\/span><\/div><div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-table wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-total-time-container\" style=\"border-width: 1px;border-style: solid;border-color: #e0e0e0;\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-faded wprm-recipe-time-label wprm-recipe-total-time-label\">Total Time<\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-time wprm-block-text-normal\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-total_time wprm-recipe-total_time-minutes\">15<span class=\"sr-only screen-reader-text wprm-screen-reader-text\"> minutes<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-unit wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-total_time-unit wprm-recipe-total_timeunit-minutes\" aria-hidden=\"true\">mins<\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\" style=\"height: 5px;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-meta-container wprm-recipe-tags-container wprm-recipe-details-container wprm-recipe-details-container-inline wprm-block-text-normal\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-inline wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-tag-container wprm-recipe-keyword-container\" style=\"\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-faded wprm-recipe-tag-label wprm-recipe-keyword-label\">Keyword: <\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-keyword wprm-block-text-normal\">Christmas bauble, string, DIY, crafting, Christmas<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe-61584-equipment\" class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-container wprm-block-text-normal\" data-recipe=\"61584\"><h3 class=\"wprm-recipe-header wprm-recipe-equipment-header wprm-block-text-bold wprm-align-left wprm-header-decoration-none\" style=\"\">Tools<\/h3><ul class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment wprm-recipe-equipment-list\"><li class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-item\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-name\">old baubles<\/div><\/li><li class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-item\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-name\">rope or strong wool<\/div><\/li><li class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-item\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-name\">white glue (tacky glue, wood glue) or a glue gun<\/div><\/li><li class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-item\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-name\">brush<\/div><\/li><li class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-item\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-equipment-name\">large cap or glass to put the ball on<\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n<div id=\"recipe-61584-instructions\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions-container wprm-recipe-61584-instructions-container wprm-block-text-normal\" data-recipe=\"61584\"><h3 class=\"wprm-recipe-header wprm-recipe-instructions-header wprm-block-text-bold wprm-align-left wprm-header-decoration-none\" style=\"\">Instructions<\/h3><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-group\"><ul class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions\"><li id=\"wprm-recipe-61584-step-0-0\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: decimal;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-text\" style=\"margin-bottom: 5px;\">Start at the top at the hook of the bauble.
