Create this adorable Reindeer Christmas Ornament to display on your Christmas tree this year!
The countdown to Christmas is here! Christmas will be here before we know it!
Do you have plans to decorate the Christmas tree this year?
There’s always a great debate on what time everyone decides to put a Christmas tree up. Many say they put it up before Thanksgiving. There are others that put the Christmas tree up the day after Thanksgiving. And then there are some that wait until December to put their tree up!
Whatever you decide is completely your choice! We usually wait until after Thanksgiving to display our tree.
This year, when you get ready to display your Christmas tree, consider adding a few of your own DIY ornaments to the tree! Making ornaments during the holiday season with kids is always a fun activity to work on together as a family!
Plus, you can save these ornaments for years to come and display them year after year.
