Forget about spending a fortune on ornaments – we’re getting super creative this year. Give your Christmas tree a farmhouse-style makeover by adding in a couple of bead ornaments!

You can even add a personal touch to the ornaments by printing out a custom message to display on it. To make sure you cut out the perfect circles out of the foam board, I suggest using a rotary cutter like the one you here.

Having a good quality hot glue gun is a must here too!

Got a ton of empty space on your tabletop? These adorable snowmen candles are the perfect addition to any corner of the room during the holidays!

To dress up your mini snowman, you’ll need a glue gun to attach the pieces. For all my DIY projects, I always keep a sleek but functional glue gun handy.

The set you can find here keeps everything neat and tidy for your craft sessions. Also, this craft requires a little bit of ribbon, so feel free to stock up on that for your future projects here.
