Three Beaded Christmas Crafts

As Christmas is approaching, you might be wondering what type of Christmas crafts you can do. One neat idea for a Christmas craft are beaded Christmas crafts. Beaded Christmas crafts are very fun and easy to make and can add a lot of holiday spirit to your house and Christmas tree this year.

Beaded Christmas Garland is a great beaded Christmas craft you can make this Christmas. The beaded Christmas garland can go on your Christmas tree or you can use the garland to decorate your fireplace mantle. All you are going to need for this project is a couple bags of beads, fishing line, and a needle. You can buy the beads in a retail or craft store for a few dollars and the fishing line if you do not already have one can be purchased for about five dollars at a fishing store or retail store. You will not need to use the sewing needle if you can find a fishing line small enough for the beads to fit through by hand, so when getting your materials together you might want to check the size of the fishing line. You can use simply red and green beads or you can come up with your own festive color design for your Christmas garland. Take the beads one at a time and thread them on the fishing line, making a festive color pattern or design. Once you have all of your beads on the fishing line, you can then tie the end of the fishing line so the beads will stay in place. You can add ribbon or ornaments onto your beaded Christmas garland if you want to make a more festive garland. This beaded craft is very simple and does not cost a lot of money to do and you can even get your children involved since it is fairly easy.

Beaded Candy Canes are also a great beaded Christmas craft that is very simple and easy to do for this Christmas season. For the candy cane you are going to need red and white beads and also a white pipe cleaner. Take your pipe cleaner and bend it into the shape of a candy cane and then add the red and white beads. You want to add the red and white beads in that pattern and you can also add a ribbon on the top of the candy cane to hang it. If you prefer to thread the red and white beads on the pipe cleaner first before bending the pipe cleaner, you can do that but it might make the bending process more difficult. You can get the red and white beads as well as the white pipe cleaner at your local craft store for around fiver dollars for everything.

You can also make a beaded Christmas wreath for a great Christmas craft this season. The beaded Christmas wreath will require red and green beads, pipe cleaner or wire, and a ribbon if you want to hang it. The beaded Christmas wreath is very simple because all you need to do is thread the red and green beads onto the pipe cleaner or wire and then bend that into a circular shape. You can use any color wire or pipe cleaner for this Christmas beaded craft and any color beads. Red and green are very common Christmas colors so you can use that idea or you can use any other colors you associate with Christmas. If you want to hang the Christmas beaded wreath, you will need to use a ribbon or string and tie it on the top of the Christmas wreath. This is a very simple and fun Christmas beaded craft idea that anyone can do and it will cost you about three dollars for the pipe cleaner and beads. You can find the pipe cleaner and colored beads at any retail store or your local crafts store and the beaded Christmas wreath can be used as a stocking stuffer for your family.
