31. DIY Santa Cam
We love this next idea! A bauble has been painted to look like a Santa cam. So, not only does it look cute and unique with the elf, but it will also keep the children well behaved! It looks amazing and it does a job too. Just buy a plain bauble and you can use Sharpie pens to create the design.

If you like to sew, then this next idea is perfect for you! Here we have a personalized hanging decoration. The ornament is a circle shape and it is red with a white festive design.

38. Ho Ho Canvas
Show off your artistic skills with a Christmassy canvas! You could create something like this. Here we have a white picture with the words Ho Ho written on it and there are a few festive pom poms too. This particular one looks wooden but you can use a canvas and stick fabric and pom poms to it. You can also paint it. A canvas will be easier to decorate and hang than wood. Recreate this or try your own Christmas design.

39. DIY Yarn Decorations
This next idea is another one of our favorites! For this, a small balloon has been decorated with yarn and then glued. After the glue has dried the balloon has been popped. As a result, you now have a unique yarn decoration. White versions of these are perfect for Christmas decor. You can use them as ornaments for the tree or even tie them together to create a garland.

40. One of Kind Bauble
If you like the DIY baubles, then you will love our next idea. So, here we have a clear bauble that has been decorated with hand-drawn artwork! This is such a unique idea because no person’s drawing is the same. You can use festive pictures or patterns. This is another great idea for children too. Ask them to color in a picture and use it to fill the bauble.
