Talk about a simple and inexpensive Christmas Craft! In fact, if you craft at all, it’s highly likely you already have everything you need lying around the house for this fun holiday project!
Essentially, all you need are mason jar lid rings, jute twine, and some festive ribbons and buttons. As you’re rummaging through your craft drawers, you may even spot some other small Christmas decor items that would be the perfect embellishments. Grab whatever speaks to you – along with your hot glue gun – and set it up at your workstation.
If you’re doing this project with kids (because this is the perfect holiday playdate craft), let them help gather up baubles, ribbons and anything else they find beautiful to add to their creations. It’s part of the fun!
