For those who grow succulents at home, we recommend “A Christmas Wreath with a 100-yen Colander.” Strictly speaking, this piece isn’t a traditional Christmas wreath, but rather a flowerbed styled like one—and it’s perfect for brightening up your home.
The materials are simple: just succulents, soil, and a colander for the base.
It might sound like a tricky craft, but you can reshape the colander without much strength, so it’s easy even for those who prefer lighter work.
Many succulents can overwinter, so why not try making a wreath as you get started with houseplants?
Cutting board wreath
A Christmas wreath based on a cutting board.
It has a natural, cute finish, making it a great gift! Use a wooden cutting board as the base.
You can paint the cutting board if you like.
Fix the wreath base on top, then keep attaching Christmas motifs and natural materials like nuts using a glue gun.
Adding yarn pom-poms will make it feel even warmer.
Feel free to arrange the materials in your own style.
Display it in your room or by the entrance, and it’s sure to boost the Christmas spirit.
Crescent Lease
Why not try handcrafting a crescent wreath with a crescent moon motif for Christmas? You can make it using only materials from the 100-yen shop, so it’s super cost-effective! First, take apart a wreath base and reshape it into a crescent.
After that, simply use a hot glue gun to attach the materials to the base—so it’s relatively easy to make.
Arrange the florals however you like! Adding lots of elements gives it more volume and a more three-dimensional finish.
Have fun making it while picturing the final look.
It also makes a lovely Christmas gift.
Fur and gnome wreath
If you’d like to make a wreath with a slightly ennui vibe, we recommend this “Fur and Gnome Wreath.” As the name suggests, the wreath uses faux fur as the base and is decorated with a gnome—an elf-like figure—along with other ornaments.
The appeal of this craft is its simplicity and cost-effectiveness.
Unlike typical Christmas wreaths, this design showcases a lot of the fur base, so you can keep costs down on florals and decorations.
As for the gnome, you can buy a figurine at a 100-yen shop, or, if you want to get particular, you can make your own doll out of felt.
Mall lease
How about making a chenille stem (pipe cleaner) wreath that you can put together in no time? If you make it mini-sized, you can easily turn it into a strap or a brooch, so it makes a great gift.
All you need is chenille stems, a ring like a card ring to wrap them around, and a jump ring! You can also get Christmas-themed charms or ribbons if you like.
The method is super simple: just wrap the chenille stems around the ring! Changing the colors gives it a different vibe and makes it fun.
Making lots and giving them to friends and family would be lovely too!
