DIY Christmas Yarn Cone Trees

DIY

23 Nov

I used to be the DIY queen, always painting and creating whatever I could get my hands on. Becoming a mom might have slowed down the rate at which I complete projects, but I still try to create when I can. Hence why I’m always doing kid crafts! It keeps my creative boost flowing while also keeping my girls entertained. However, Christmas time always brings out the more creative side of me and gets me itching to do DIYs for decor and such. I recently went shopping and saw so many little trees I wanted to buy, but the price tags didn’t sit well with me. So I figured, why not make my own trees to give texture around the house and put me on flair on them?! And here we are, I’m going to share a super easy way to create your own yarn trees.

How cute are these mixed in with the bottle brush trees? Make sure to stay tuned to the bottom of the post, I share a quick video of how to throw them together in about ten minutes. I’ll also link up materials too.

1. Gather your materials

You’ll need yarn, tinsel, jute of your choice, styrofoam cone trees, and a hot glue gun. You could add pom poms to your list too if you want to add some more flair! I will mention that thicker yarns work best for this project if you’re looking to do it quickly. The thin yarn took me awhile and I didn’t have much patience to keep moving the pieces down lol. You could also use fabric if you wanted to as well.

2. Hot glue around the bottom

3. Start to wrap yarn around, secure against the glue and then wrap tightly all the way to the top of tree

4. Hot glue the yarn around the top and then add a pom pom if you’d like!

That’s it! How easy was that? I actually don’t mind the spaces between the yarn on this one, but I absolutely love how the other ones I did came out.

I hope you guys enjoyed this craft today! Creativity is a bucket of mine that I do need filled pretty often and as a mom of 2 littles, I need the quick crafts. If you do this craft, I’d love for you to share it on social and tag me so I can see it!

Dreaming up this garden took a lot of time, patien Dreaming up this garden took a lot of time, patience and hard work… but who says you can’t garden in the burbs?! Gardening looks different for everyone 🌿🥒🌻 This is why it’s so special. You can grow wherever you are, it just takes a little extra planning!

A few things that make my heart happy these days: A few things that make my heart happy these days: 

Growing my very own sunflowers from seed 
Trying new recipes like this dill & fennel cheddar sourdough loaf 🤤🥖🌻 
Homeschooling my loves 

If 20 year old me could see me now, almost 30 and realizing.. these are the days ☀️
Gardening has brought such a peace to my life that Gardening has brought such a peace to my life that I never knew I needed. Growing up, I spent hours in my grandmother’s garden, eating carrots right from the ground and being fascinated with each bite. I started 4 years ago planting in one big raised bed, and every year I learn more. It’s such a challenge to garden, but there’s something about it that still fascinates me to this day.  It truly brings your family together to make an effort to connect with your food and nature. 

Thankful for Ant who helps without ever complaining to make this the beautiful garden I envisioned. I love watching our children eat a whole pound of strawberries or wipe out an entire trellis of snap peas without either making it into the house first. Planting seeds and weeding with the girls, teaching them every step of the way. Gardening has taught me to slow down a little more. 

Hoping to have a little farm stand to sell our veggies, eggs, kombucha, sourdough and more homemade goods sometime in the summer. ☀️🌻

If only sourdough really only took 60 seconds 😂 If only sourdough really only took 60 seconds 😂😂 I’ve been making sourdough for over 2 years now and it’s still a learning process! It’s such a gift to be able to pass this knowledge down to my children and I love that I can make this beautiful bread to nourish my family. Do you bake sourdough?! What’s holding you back?! #sourdough #sourdoughbread  #sourdoughbaking #sourdoughscoring #homesteadmama  #homesteading #homesteadlife #homemakerlife #homemaker
The pictures and videos my sister and doula took d The pictures and videos my sister and doula took during the birth of DJ mean more to me than any fancy ones ever would. I’m forever grateful to have them to look back on. I could rewatch this 1000 times and it still seems surreal.
