5 Ideas for Hosting a Christmas Craft Party with Friends

Get your friends together this holiday season for a festive crafting party! Here are five ideas for Christmas crafts that are easy to make, fun to create, and perfect for sharing with loved ones.

1. Handmade Ornaments

Gather a variety of materials such as ribbon, beads, fabric scraps, and glitter. Purchase clear glass or plastic ornaments and let your guests get creative with their designs. These are perfect for gifting to loved ones or hanging on your own Christmas tree.

2. Festive Wreaths

Supply your guests with an assortment of greenery, ribbon, and other decorative materials. Show them how to create their own wreath with a foam or wire base, and let them decorate it to their hearts' content. These wreaths can be hung on front doors or used as centerpieces for holiday tables.

3. DIY Christmas Cards

Set up a station with cardstock, stamps, stickers, and markers. Offer holiday-themed templates to follow or encourage guests to design their own cards. Everyone can take home their own handmade cards to send out to loved ones.

4. Cookie Decorating

Bake sugar or gingerbread cookies ahead of time and provide frosting, sprinkles, and other edible decorations. Your guests will have fun creating their own festive treats which they can take home or enjoy at the party.

5. Pom-pom Garland

Buy pom-pom makers or teach your guests how to make pom-poms out of yarn. String the pom-poms onto twine or ribbon to create a colorful and fun garland. These are perfect for decorating Christmas mantels or wrapping around trees.
