Not just for decoration! This is a unique idea you can decorate with, move, and enjoy.
All you need are a paper cup, a utility knife, scissors, a straw, tape, a Santa Claus cutout made from construction paper, and kite string.
It creates a wall scene that looks as if Santa Claus is secretly trying to slip into the house through the chimney on Christmas night.
For the background, use dark-colored construction paper or poster paper that evokes nighttime and decorate it with star motifs.
Adding a brick-style chimney will further enhance the imagery.
Santa Claus on a sleigh

It’s a seasonal wall display that makes you want to reach out and touch the fluffy beard! By using cotton as well as construction paper, you can create a nice three-dimensional effect, so it’s highly recommended.
If you add stars of various sizes using holographic origami paper, it will look as if the sleigh is flying across the sky! You can also customize the number of Santas and the reindeer’s outfits, so it could be fun to make it while discussing ideas with the kids.
It’s a wonderful idea that excites you just by looking at the wall.
A Christmas tree made of chenille stems and decorative stickers

Let’s make a sparkling Christmas tree that will make you even more excited for the holiday! You’ll need construction paper cut into a triangle, tissue paper in green and light green cut into small pieces, glue, brown construction paper, glitter pipe cleaners, decorative materials, a stapler, adhesive, and so on.
The key is that the glitter pipe cleaners shine, so the tree looks bright from any angle.
Just like decorating a Christmas tree with ornaments, finish by sticking on your favorite stickers and parts!
Construction paper Christmas wreath

It would be wonderful if we could make a three-dimensional Christmas wreath using construction paper.
Let’s create a gorgeous, eye-catching wall display that makes you look forward to the Christmas season! You’ll need construction paper in various colors, scissors, a craft knife, glue, paste, tape, and so on.
One of the great things is that you can customize the method, size, and design.
How about making it together with the kids—perhaps a colorful tree, or a tree that looks snow-covered by using cotton? Wishing you a fun and festive Christmas!
Cute Minnie Santa origami

Let’s make a Minnie Santa with origami! It’s cute to stick on the wall as is, and it would also look great combined with other Christmas-themed origami pieces to create a garland or hanging decoration.
First, use one sheet of origami paper to make the face, body, and hat.
Then use several other sheets to make the ears, bow, and scarf.
Since there are parts that require cutting, prepare scissors, a pen for drawing the face, and glue for assembly.
There aren’t any complicated steps, but because you’ll be putting several pieces together, fold each part carefully, one by one.
