13 Reader Christmas Projects: Ribbon Angels, Sweater Wreaths, and Handmade Ornaments

These thirteen reader projects include handmade ornaments, wreaths, stockings, pillows, and tabletop decorations. Each photograph is credited to its maker; the available project links lead to the original tutorials rather than a guessed method based on the finished image.

1. Gail's ribbon angel

Gail from Purple Hues and Me shared an angel ornament made with patterned ribbon. Her collage shows the ribbon forms coming together around the small head and wings. The original feature did not retain a direct project URL.

2. A hand-painted Christmas pillow

A Little Claireification shared a red pillow with lettering inspired by the Twelve Days of Christmas. The original tutorial link could not be reached during review, so the maker credit and finished photograph remain without an unverified click target.

3. Linda's ticking napkin

Linda from White Weathered Hutch shared a ticking-fabric napkin tutorial. Red-and-white stripes and a ruffled edge add detail to the layered place setting.

4. A striped sweater wreath

The Creative Me and My McG shared a winter sweater wreath. Red-and-white knit stripes wrap the ring, with soft pompom-like accents clustered at the bottom.

5. Kathy's burlap candy cane

Kathy from Life on Lakeshore Drive made a candy-cane-shaped wreath. Red and pale burlap loops cover the shape, with a green bow and small red flower at the bend. No direct tutorial link was supplied in this feature.

6. A personalized stocking

Sassypants Studio shared a simple stocking tutorial. The pictured stocking combines pale fabric, a red personalized cuff, and hanging mitten shapes.

7. Kelly's metallic pinecone place settings

Kelly, then blogging as Eclectically Vintage, shared metallic pinecone place settings. The painted cones hold round name cards. Her project and the same original photograph are now available on Kelly Elko.

8. Dawn's pinecones and gingham ribbon

Dawn from Creative Cain Cabin paired pinecones with red-and-white ribbon and glassware around a candle. The original feature accidentally linked to another maker's dining-room post; that unrelated link has been removed while Dawn's photograph and credit remain.

9. Karen's decorated Dollar Tree candles

Karen from Shabby Sweet Cottage shared romantic candles decorated with lace-like material, twine, and small joy tags. The original feature identified the candles as Dollar Tree finds.

10. Jessica's hanging JOY chargers

Jessica from Mom4Real turned turquoise chargers into a vertical JOY display hung with ribbon. Her photograph records the arrangement above a small table. The original project link could not be reached during review.

11. Deb's painted Christmas chair

Deb from Lake Girl Paints shared whimsical Christmas chairs. This chair has a red frame and a painted Santa design across the seat.

12. Twig ornaments from Serendipity Refined

Serendipity Refined made twig ornaments. Sticks radiate from the centers, with pale and glittered tips and loops for hanging.

13. Jane's curtain-ring ornaments

Jane from Cottage at the Crossroads shared ornaments made from wooden curtain rings. The example below frames a pinecone and greenery, finished with a bow and hanging loop.
