VIDEO: Make your own Christmas arrangements

Christmas arrangements conjure up the atmosphere of Christmas in every living room. Why not make your own Christmas arrangements this year instead of buying them? Here are some ideas for purple Christmas arrangements that you make yourself.

Ideas for the basis of the Christmas arrangements

1. For the basis of the Christmas arrangements, you need either styrofoam rings or plug-in material, both are possible.
2. First the ideas for the styrofoam wreath: So that the white wreath does not shine through so white afterwards, paint it with paint beforehand, preferably purple, so that it matches the rest of the arrangement.
3. Let the ring dry well.
4. Then attach individual fir branches to the ring with the wire or with the clamps, all around. But do not attach too many branches, otherwise the Christmas arrangements will look overloaded and the other decoration ideas will no longer fit on the wreath.

5. These are the basic ideas for the Christmas arrangements in the shape of a ring. Now the ideas for the putty: Take the putty, this is mostly green, so it doesn't have to be painted because you can hardly see it under the green fir branches.
6. Now take the clamps or the wire and attach the fir branches to the plug-in compound so that they cannot slip. And the second base for Irish Christmas arrangements is ready.

How to decorate the Christmas arrangement yourself

You have already made the basis for the Christmas arrangements yourself. Now it's time to decorate.

1. First the Christmas arrangements in the shape of a ring: First, the candles are attached to the wreath.
2. If the candles are long, thin, then drill small holes in the wreath, fill these with some glue from the hot glue gun and then insert the candle. Hold on to the candle for a while longer until the glue has dried a little.
3. Four candles should be enough, one for every Advent. If you have thick candles instead, use the wire to drill holes in the candles so that the wire stays there, now all you have to do is stick the candles into the wreath.
4. It is exactly the same process for the plug-in mass.
5. Now the balls come into play, they should be slightly smaller so that they don't completely cover the Christmas arrangements. Attach the balls to the arrangements either with wire or with a little glue.
6. Then add the tinsel, spread it over the entire Christmas arrangement. The tinsel does not have to be attached as it will stick to the fir branches by itself.
7. So that the Christmas arrangements are not so monochrome, you can also add some silver-colored hearts or Stars distribute on it.

With a few ideas you will have beautiful purple Christmas arrangements that you have also made yourself.
