Decorative elements in glass

Nativity scene as a Christmas decoration

Have you been unable to find your crib this year and completely forgotten to buy a new one? Then you can easily make this traditional version yourself. As you can see, eggs can be used for more than just Easter. You then need a few scraps of fabric, some sand and you can create the decoration for Christmas.

Original Christmas trees

Not everything always has to follow the classic traditions. For all lovers of non-traditional ideas, a Christmas tree to hang is perhaps the highlight of Christmas Eve. Arrange colorful balls of different sizes, hang them on a decorative metal frame that imitates the triangular shape of a fir tree and round off the picture with a shimmering star in a silver look. There are no limits to your imagination.
