Oh hel­lo end of Octo­ber. It’s been nice knowin ya! Is any­one else feel­in this way? I was so eager for Octo­ber to arrive and now, as we near the end it seems like it has been for­ev­er long? Maybe because I spend about half the month chomp­ing at the bit to get start­ed on the blog full-time…either way, wow Octo­ber is almost over! 

In the Geed­ing house that means this week­end is tra­di­tion­al Christ­mas tree week­end! For the past few weeks I have been gath­er­ing new orna­ments and mak­ing all the things! And if you don’t already know I am plan­ning to make a shift in my decor for a more neu­tral look. I have want­ed to make the switch for a few years now but have always been hes­i­tant because of cost. 

So this year, in the spir­it of bud­get-friend­ly DIY I have decid­ed to take the leap. And to ease the blo that a big shift like this could make, I have been on the hunt for Christ­mas orna­ments I could cre­ate myself! 

If you are in the same boat, today is your lucky day. I have already done all the leg work to help you get start­ed with your own tran­si­tion! Check out these cute lit­tle wood block orna­ments! Thread with cute rib­bon and you’re ready to hang! 

I love these because well they are a no-brain­er! Sim­ple, cute and prac­ti­cal­ly FREE! Sign me up!

Y’all I am obsessed how beau­ti­ful these are! If you have not already seen this tuto­r­i­al on how to make these adorable rus­tic wood block stamped orna­ments check it out HERE! Or even if you have go look again…they are that cute!

These are so stinkin cute I can hard­ly stand it! These felt orna­ments are def­i­nite­ly not child’s play, they are unique, and full of character! 

After see­ing this one I am look­ing at spin­dles a whole new way! Sim­ply cut an old spin­dle and attach a hook! It’s that easy! Look at the char­ac­ter they instant­ly add! I can’t get over it.

This one was inspired out of my love for neu­tral decor and my desire to incor­po­rate some jum­bo orna­ments into my tree this year! I real­ly think some­times sim­ple can be better! 

Did I men­tion that I love sim­ple? Maybe you do too and this one is for you! I love the green­ery in the clear orna­ments. The good thing is, if you need a lit­tle more “wow” add some red berries! 

I absolute­ly LOVE the cre­ativ­i­ty here! Most of the sup­plies came from the dol­lar tree! Check out those jen­ga blocks.…wow!

Look at this dar­ling lit­tle cre­ation! Grab a few scrab­ble pieces and some hot glue! You can have this lit­tle cutie made in no time! 

And last but cer­tain­ly not least is are these beau­ti­ful DIY snowflakes craft­ed from old book pages! A lit­tle time, patience and hot glue and you will be on your way to snowflake heaven!

I hope this col­lec­tion of easy DIY orna­ments has left you inspired and ready to cre­ate some beau­ties of your own! A sim­ple neu­tral farm­house look is my jam! I would love to know about your pre­ferred dec­o­rat­ing style in the comments! 

HAPPY CRAFTING!
