It's the most wonderful time of the year! The Christmas spirit can be felt everywhere you go. Still looking for ideas for decorating your home for the holidays? Today we present some original ideas for a DIY Christmas decoration with hula hoops. You can do this yourself without much effort and decorate your home quickly and easilydecorate cheaply. Read on to learn how you can transform the old hula hoop into a beautiful Christmas decoration.
You can use the hula hoop, for example, to create a beautiful table decoration for your banquet table. When choosing the right hula hoop for this DIY project, you should consider the table size so that the decorations don't take up the entire table. So for a small table you should use a smaller hoop.
This is what you need to make this beautiful table decoration:
- Wooden board as a base
- Color
- Hula hoops
- Floral floral foam
- rotate Fabric
- Hot glue
- Handlebars
- Never
- Hanging glass tea light holder
- cord
- Real or artificial floral decorations and natural materials
And this is how it works:
First, paint your wooden board and glue the floral foam to the top. Either cut the seam of the hula hoop or pull it apart to create an arch shape. Wrap the hula hoop with the fabric. Alternatively, you can dye the hoop or wrap it with tape, but the fabric will add a classy touch to the decoration.
Using pliers, flatten the ends of the hula hoop so that it is thin enough to be pinned. Attach it to the wooden board on both sides of the floral foam.
Use either real or artificial flowers and greenery to create a floral arrangement by arranging the materials in the floral foam. Make sure the decoration you add to the base covers the stapled ends of the hoop.
Finally, tie string around the tea light holders and hang them from the top of the hula hoop. Complete!
DIY Christmas decorations with hula hoops: Make a large door wreath with lights
You can also turn the hula hoop into a beautiful door wreath. And it's a lot easier than you think. You can even use leftover garlands and fairy lights that didn't find a place in the home's Christmas decorations. Here's everything you need:
- Hula hoops
- optional: green spray paint or green tape
- artificial fir garland
- Blumendraht
- Wire cutters
- Fairy lights
The first thing you need to do is remove all stickers from your hula hoop. Then you can either spray the tire with green paint or cover it with green adhesive tape. If you skip this step, the next step is to ensure that there are no gaps or bare spots.
To make the wreath, wrap the entire hula hoop with the pine garland by securing it with floral wire. When finished, wrap the fairy lights around the wreath for a playful accent. You can use colored lights for this. How about these big colorful lights for the front door?
Decorate the door wreath with natural material
If you prefer Christmas decorations made from natural materials, you can decorate the hula hoop with real evergreen branches. These are a little more difficult to handle, but they look much more natural. For some nice touches with a nostalgic touch, add some Christmas bells and some fake snow.

To make a beautiful door wreath, you don't necessarily have to cover the hoop. Instead, you can design it with spray paint in any color and only partially decorate it. If you insert a second smaller hoop into the larger one, the door decoration will have an even more interesting look.

Make your own festive chandelier
DIY Christmas decorations with hula hoops can also look very clever. For example, you can make your own hanging decorations to place above the dining table or in the middle of the hallway. To do this, you can use an inexpensive plastic hula hoop as a base, which you can either cover with tape or string or wrap with garland. Then simply tie on a selection of colorful Christmas baubles arranged at different heights. Hang the finished decoration from the ceiling using jute twine or fishing line. Below you will find a simple guide.
Materials:
- Hula hoops
- green Christmas garlands
- battery operated fairy lights
- Gift ribbon
- Christmas balls
First, start wrapping garland around your hula hoop. Depending on the size of the hoop, you will need between 3 and 6 garlands. You can combine different shades of green or make a colored chandelier if you wish.
Next, wrap the lights all around. Make sure the battery compartment is hidden but easily accessible.
Then add Christmas balls or other pendants. You can go for the classic Christmas colors of red, green and gold or choose any other color combination you like. The main thing is that it fits in with the rest of your Christmas decorations.
To hang the festive chandelier, you will need four pieces of ribbon of equal length. Tie these to the hula hoop at equal intervals. You can then attach the other ends to your existing chandelier. You can also simply hang the hanging decoration on another light fixture above the table - it's pretty light.
Christmas card holder for the wall
You can also use the old hula hoop to display your Christmas cards. How? You can make a card holder out of it! After the holidays are over, you can remove the Christmas decorations and hang some photos instead of cards. S0 you get a really original photo wall.
Necessary materials:
- Hula hoops
- gold spray paint
- artificial evergreen branches
- Pine cones
- Hot glue
- Jute twine
- Mini clothespins
This is how the hula hoop card holder is made:
First, spray the hula hoop with gold paint. Once the paint has dried, wrap a piece of jute twine in a crisscross pattern around the hula hoop (see picture), starting at the top of the hoop. Attach the string with tape to hold it in place. Once you've placed the string where you want it, attach it to the back of the hoop with a generous dab of hot glue. Tie the two ends of the string to the tire.
Now the tire is decorated. Use hot glue to attach some faux greenery and berries to the side or bottom of the hoop. Add some pine cones to the center of the decoration for a more natural effect.
Hang the tire on the wall. You can also make several of these to create even more space for cards or photos!
When the Christmas cards arrive, simply hang them from the hoop using small clothespins. This is a simple and stylish way to display the most beautiful cards you receive from family and friends without cluttering up the shelves.

A festively decorated hula hoop with space for Christmas cards or photos would also be a great gift idea for friends and relatives.

What you need:
- Hula hoops

Then use the clothespins to attach the selected photos to the ribbons.
