15 December DIY Projects in Leonardo®

The final month of the year has finally arrived! Filled with lots of festive holidays, December is the perfect time to turn the craftiness up to 11! Create gifts, decor, and apparel for Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa with these 15 December DIY Projects in Leonardo® Design Studio!

Christmas

#1: Cute and Ugly Christmas Sweater

One of my favorite things about Christmas is how popular ugly Christmas sweaters have become. What’s really impressive though is making a Christmas sweater that’s both ugly AND cute! With a bit of EasyWeed® and Glitter HTV, it’s easily achievable!

#2: Christmas Village Tree Skirt

People aren’t the only ones who can look cute on Christmas! Give your tree a little extra pizzaz with an adorable tree skirt featuring a quaint, snowy village with the help of StripFlock® Pro!

#3: Santa Table Runner

When it’s time for Christmas dinner, make sure the table is just as festive as you are! By combining several HTVs like EasyWeed, Glitter, Holographic, and Metal, you can create a stunning new table runner that will last for many Christmases to come!

#4: Personalized Reindeer Stocking

Old stocking looking a little rough? Create a dazzling new one— personalized with your name— using the bright and colorful options of Siser® HTV!

#5: Gingerbread House Cookie Box

If you’re like me, then gingerbread houses may not be your strong suit. Don’t fret— with some EasyPSV® Starling™, you can create a mess-free (and long-lasting) gingerbread house that also doubles as Christmas cookie storage!

Hanukkah

#6: Hanukkah Gift Wrapping

If you give gifts during the 7-day celebration of Hanukkah, then you’re going to need some appropriately themed wrapping paper! Why not make your own with the help of EasyWeed?

#7: Ugly Hanukkah Sweater

Who said Christmas gets to have all the ugly sweater fun? Celebrate Hanukkah in (ugly) style with a festive sweater made with just a single layer of HTV!

#8: Hanukkah Triangle Banner

Need some decor for the Hanukkah celebrations? We have a project for that, too! With a bit of cardstock and some HTV, you can create a festive banner featuring some of your favorite Hanukkah symbols!

#9: Happy Hanukkah Greeting Card

Need to wish someone far away a Happy Hanukkah? Make it more personable with a handmade card embellished with colorful HTV!

#10: Hanukkah Gelt Pouch

I recently learned that gelt is a traditional gift given during Hanukkah. Whether you’re giving away actual money or the tasty alternative (chocolate gelt), you’ll need a decorated pouch to go with it!

Kwanzaa

#11: Joyous Kwanzaa Shirt

Spread the joy of Kwanzaa all December long with a dedicated shirt decorated in the festive holiday colors using EasyWeed!

#12: Kwanzaa Scrolls Banner

Can’t find the right Kwanzaa decor at the store? Well, you know what they say: when you need something done right, do it yourself! Make your own scrolls banner featuring the 7 symbols of Kwanzaa with some cardstock and HTV!

#13: Kwanzaa Produce Offering Bowl

Set the table with the traditional Kwanzaa fruits and veggies by making your own offering bowl with the help of EasyPSV Starling!

#14: Kwanzaa Gift Wrapping Ribbon

Got a special Kwanzaa gift for someone this year? Wrap it up nice and neat with a custom bow made using HTV!

#15: Wooden Kwanzaa Candle Stand

When the Kinara goes up, you’re going to need a sturdy (and decorative) surface to display it on. Easily create your own wooden candle stand with a bit of EasyPSV!
