X-Mas: Easy Christmas Decoration Ideas

This is just a quick idea for you to decorate the house if you have some time on your hands- but literally, like, 2.5 mins (not being exact or anything)!

I know the quality of the camera is completely rubbish... but just ignore that. What I've shown is the beginning few stages that I did... the basics:

  • simply cut your chosen size of circles for the smile (depending on how much of your fridge you wish to take up and how big it is)
  • with the same paper, draw and cut similar sized eyes (a bit larger)
  • cut a triangle for the nose
And, as you can see, this really does not need to be measured at all; just rough cuttings are easier-

in my opinion, measurements make everything confusing... you can understand how great at maths I am!
  • blu-tac or sellotape onto fridge

Then, moving on from this, you can add a colourful scarf, hat, arms, mittens etc.

  • To do this, simply cut the shape roughly onto your chosen colour of paper/card -but don't use orange: it clashes, duh?
  • You can further decorate with added strips and layers of card on top of other layers i.e. tartan on the scarf?
  • Furthermore, the snowmen can look even more brill if you use wrapping paper- so go for it! Run around the house, picking up random fabrics and don't lie. I KNOW you have wrapping paper somewhere around... It's CHRISTMAS, okay- you don't have to be a detective to work that one out- no offence.

The ones below are examples that I picked up from Pinterest (how much do I wish they were mine). It looks like they've used stickers which is officially cheating, but you can see that if you are creative like that, the result could be very rewarding ;)
