Last updated:

Christmas is a time when everyone wants to enjoy handmade decorations together.

By adorning rooms in care facilities with warm, handcrafted decor, they can be transformed into special spaces that make the heart feel cozy.

Handmade pieces that evoke the season—like pine cones, poinsettias, and ornaments—are perfect for creating together with older adults.

Activities that use the fingers help stimulate the brain, and the sense of accomplishment after finishing is wonderful.

In this article, we’ll share ideas for handmade decorations that can make Christmas in care facilities even more fun and even more delightful.

Brighten your walls with an easy-to-make Christmas mobile.

The materials are paper cups, straws, jute twine, construction paper, round stickers, and present-shaped parts.

Use the paper cups, construction paper, and round stickers to make Santa Claus and a reindeer.

Create the base of the mobile with the straws and jute twine, then hang Santa, the reindeer, and the present parts to finish.

Use thick, sturdy straws designed for tapioca/boba.

Decorating with tape or origami paper will make it even more festive.

Paper Plate Santa

Cut a paper plate in half to make the base for the face.

Snip small cuts along the rim with scissors to create the beard.

Cut a red piece of construction paper into a triangle, add a pom-pom to make a hat, and glue it onto the plate.

Color the center of the plate with crayon to match a skin tone, then draw the nose and mouth.

Finally, make hair with cotton and attach eye parts to complete your Santa Claus.

Feel free to enjoy it by sticking it on the wall or hanging it as a decoration.

It would also look nice attached to a cone-shaped body as a standing ornament.

Let me show you how to make a cute snowman ornament with just a few simple steps.

Fold the two bottom corners of a clear bag into triangles and tape them down, then stuff the bag with white cotton and seal the opening.

Fold the left and right corners of the sealed opening into triangles and tape them as well.

Next, twist two pipe cleaners together to make a scarf, wrap it around the middle to cinch the bag, and shape it into a snowman.

Use round stickers for the eyes and nose, draw the mouth with a pen, and finish by adding a paper hat.

Thread a string through the scarf, and you can hang it on your tree.

Christmas lamp tree

Would you like to try making a handmade, tree-shaped Christmas lamp? Light will shine through star- and circle-shaped holes, making it look as if the tree itself is glowing—a lovely idea.

First, draw a net for a square pyramid on construction paper and cut it out, then use a craft punch to make holes in the four side panels.

Imagine you’re placing ornaments and punch the holes in a well-balanced way.

In the center of the square base, make another hole large enough for the tip of the lamp to pass through.

Assemble the construction paper into a tree and decorate the top with a ribbon and a star.

Decorate the sides of an LED lamp, place the tree over it, and you’re done.

Enjoy it in a dark room.

Christmas tree made with ribbons

This is a handmade tree idea that’s completed simply by sticking teardrop-shaped ribbon pieces onto a cone base made from thick paper.

To make the teardrop-shaped parts, cut ribbon to a suitable length and glue the two ends together.

When attaching the ribbon to the base, face the rounded end downward and stick them in a straight line.

If it’s hard to keep them straight, draw guide lines on the base beforehand to help with placement.

Once all the ribbons are attached, decorate the top with a star to finish! Adding small beads for extra sparkle would also look cute.

Christmas boots made from paper cartons

Here’s an idea for Christmas boots that are perfect for decorations.

You’ll need two small paper cartons, red and white felt, any origami paper you like, and white cotton balls.

The base of the boot is made by combining the two paper cartons.

Use the first carton to form the vertical part of the boot and the second carton to form the rounded toe.

Before assembling, decorate the inside of the first carton with the origami paper.

Once you’ve combined the cartons into a boot shape, attach the red and white felt to the outside, then finish by decorating with the cotton balls.

Star-shaped Santa Claus

Star-shaped Santa Claus

Both stars and Santa Claus are essential for Christmas—let’s brighten the season with an adorable mascot that combines the two.

The idea is to use red origami to evoke Santa’s outfit and shape it into a star to create the mascot.

Another key point is forming it into a three-dimensional shape using the creases as guides; the rounded volume enhances its cuteness.

How you draw the face is also an important point where you can add your own originality.
