In these dates when we usually spend more money than usual, it is a good idea to save as much as we can, such as in Christmas tree decoration, without giving up seeing it pretty. In addition, it is a good opportunity to involve children in Christmas preparations.
From Daily Savings they give us a good idea to do it. How? Wrapping boxes of various sizes with wrapping paper. You just have to collect or ask neighbors and family for medication boxes, creams or whatever you can think of, wrap them with wrapping paper, place a bow and hang them on the tree.
In Mothers to the work we suggest making ornaments with empty yogurt cups to which we stick glitter or shiny paper with Christmas shapes. It can also be decorated with gum eva cut in the form of Christmas trees or bells, or with cotton balls wrapped in cloth scraps and tied with a bow.
A classic that is very beautiful is to tie ties to the branches of the tree. You can buy a ribbon with Christmas motifs or two tapes that combine (for example one with motifs and another smooth, golden or silver). You can tie them directly to the tree or assemble the bows and place a little ribbon to hang them, which are already left for the following year.
A more laborious but very good alternative is to buy telgopor spheres (or recycle last year's spheres) and decorate them with pebbles, seeds or buttons or even with golden-painted noodles as we can see here.
Another option is to borrow some small stuffed animals from your children and hang them from the tree, or place pineapples painted in gold or silver, make these felt dolls, and even place drawings with Christmas motifs made by the little ones decorated with glitter, stars, or any something else ... but make it bright.
As you can see, we can decorate the Christmas tree with very little money, adding a bit of imagination, in addition to spending a pleasant time your children.
