We are almost a month away from Christmas and I already hear Christmas bells, don't you? Today I have compiled a set of amazing garland DIYs to make your house festive and stylish.
Don't you just love them? I am having a hard time choosing which one I should make this Christmas, because I like felt and paper, and light, and pine cones... You see? My decision is a tough one.

1. If you live in a pine forest like me, you can just go out and pick the pine cones for the first project. This garland is fast and easy to make and you can choose whether to paint the pine cones or not. I would go with the their natural colors though.
You can find the pine cone garland tutorial on the Two Shades of Pink blog.

2. The following garland is not only colorful but bright as well. It will create a lovely cozy atmosphere wherever you hang it because of the lights hidden in each pyramid!

3. Another amazing paper and light garland, this time with an eco-friendly twist. You can re-use clean paper cups to make these wonderful bell-like lights! To tell you the truth, looking at this garland makes me feel like I am in a fairy tale.

4. How about a playful mirror-garland? You only need some mirror pieces and lights!

5. And the last one is yet another favorite! As a felting fan I find it hard not to mention a felted garland. You can have lots of fun making those tiny colorful balls, and even better - little hands can be of great help!
