ON THE HOME FRONT
- Thanksgiving came to our home last week. We unpacked 6 boxes of Thanksgiving decorations. I culled through the boxes and decorated our home with turkeys, pilgrims and woodland animals. I’m ready to start planning for our Thanksgiving meal.
- I’ve also been ordering DIY supplies from Amazon for making Christmas decorations. I think we’ve had a package delivered daily this week. I love this time of year.
- I listened to two masterclasses through Pin Potential (The Pinterest membership I joined a few weeks ago.). One was on ideas for making your blog more user-friendly. The other was on creating digital products. Both were excellent and I took lots of notes. My Pinterest Mastermind group met and we talked about changes to Pinterest and how to adjust to them.
- A friend in my Bible study highly recommended a new devotional book to me. I ordered it and I’ve been reading it every morning for a month. I really like it so I thought I would share it: You are the Beloved: Daily Meditations for Spiritual Living by Henri J.M. Nouwen. Take a look and Nouwen’s biography – he was a fascinating person and author.
- This week, the blog was about preparing for Thanksgiving and Pumpkin recipes: 21 Steps to Get Ready to Host Thanksgiving (with a helpful Printable list) and 7 Delicious Pumpkin Recipes.

Christmas Tree DIY Projects: 10 Fabulous Finds
Here we go with Bluesky Browsing #63.
This is the first new Christmas post of the season. I’m excited to share these oh-so-cute ideas with you.
To be honest, I started my search on Pinterest by looking for DIY Christmas projects in general. The more I searched, the more I was attracted to Christmas tree crafts. So I decided to focus on that decoration.
For these DIY Christmas trees, I looked for ideas that were pretty, easy, and could be adapted to whatever Christmas color scheme you chose.

I also looked for DIY Christmas tree projects that had great tutorials – clear, concise and with great photography. Know that every pretty picture has a “show and tell” behind it.
Enjoy them all.
DIY Christmas Tree Projects for You to Try
This post uses a plugin from WP Tasty called Tasty Roundups. It is so easy to use and I love how it looks. I think it will be easy for you to read and link to the original resources.
Lighted Yarn DIY Christmas Trees
I’ve seen yarn Christmas trees, but I loved these lighted ones from Rhonda of Hallstrom Home. The different heights of the trees make for such an interesting vignette.
Decorated Bottle Brush Trees
Everyone loves bottle brush trees. I’ve been slowly collecting them and using them the past couple of years. My sweet friend Tammy of White Lilac Farmhouse shares how to decorate them in the prettiest way. She gives great suggestions for taking a plain bottle brush tree and turning into something spectacular.
DIY String Christmas Trees
Have you ever heard of a string Christmas tree? When I saw this picture on Pinterest, I wondered how this tree was made. Bev of Make Your Own Zone shows us exactly how to make this pretty DIY Christmas tree.
Last Minute DIY Christmas Trees
Don’t have time to make your Christmas tree decorations? Then use this easy and fast method from Francine of Francine’s Place. You could even delegate this project to the kids. The result is still so pretty.
Make Your Own Bottle Brush Trees
Ashley of At Home with Ashley is known for her pretty bright colors. But she blew me away when she shared how to make your own bottle brush trees from scratch. You won’t believe how easy and inexpensive it is. Ashley used her usual bright pastels in her home, but you could color your trees in your own color scheme.
Fleece (or Felt) DIY Christmas Trees
Aren’t these Christmas trees so pretty? They are from Janine of Happy Happy Nester. She has an easy way to create the tree before decorating in soft neutral colors. Janine used fleece, but felt would work just as well. Pick your color scheme and you are on your way to making these pretty additions to your Christmas decor.
How to Make Glitter Christmas Trees
I had to share one of my DIY Christmas tree projects from Bluesky at Home. I made these trees as a centerpiece for a Christmas tablescape last year. I show you step-by-step how to get the glitter on the trees – including my mistakes. Use your favorite color of glitter to make these trees your own.
Felt Ball Christmas Tree
Are you as obsessed with felt balls as I am? I love how versatile they are. And they come in every color of the rainbow! Amy of Mom Spark created this colorful Christmas tree. Change the color of the felt balls if you like and create a different esthetic.
DIY Music Sheet Christmas Trees
This DIY Christmas tree was one of the most unique projects I found. And it’s so simple! This project from Heather of Beauty for Ashes is perfect for the music lover. I actually have some sheets of music that I found a few years ago at a local antique mall. I just have to find them!
Let me know what you think of these DIY Christmas trees. Which ones were your favorites? I could try them all. I do already have styrofoam cones, felt balls, small ornaments, and twinkle lights on hand.
Amazon is coming every day to my house!

I’m looking for supplies that can be used to make and decorate DIY Christmas trees. I’ve ordered several of these items:
- 1-inch ornaments that come in multiple colors
- wool felt balls in multiple colors
- small bead garland (which you can cut up) in multiple colors
- felt pieces (8 X 12-inches) in multiple colors
