15 Easy DIY Ways To Decorate Your Home For Christmas
Our college used to do this every Christmas and we have been doing it ever since!
You can use wrapping paper, construction paper, or ribbon to decorate your doors.
This works for ALL doors including cabinets and even the fridge.
Make a cute design like a snow man, wrap your whole door or put a piece of wrapping paper on just the top half of the door, top it off with a bow or ribbon.
You can also just tie it up with a bow. It’s also great for schools since it’s super easy and uses supplies that you already have.
Wrapping paper can also look great on the face of tiled or wood stairs, just cut the pieces to fit and attach them with double stick tape.
