Who says scrapbook supplies can only be used for scrapbooking? For a creative person, these supplies are a blank canvas for all sorts of unique projects, including Christmas decor! Garlands are such a festively fun way to deck out your home — wrapped around a tree, atop the mantlepiece, down the banister and more — and blog contributor Tina Kistinger decided to give the good ol’ fashioned garland her own crafty twist as a mini DIY Christmas tree garland using Creative Memories products!
I created a DIY Christmas tree garland that would be perfect for decorating a miniature Christmas tree for your desk, coffee table or shelf.
To create this project, you’ll need:
- Christmas Spirit Paper Pack or (Shop Canada | Shop Australia)
- Reindeer Punch or (Shop Canada | Shop Australia)
- Santa’s Sleigh Punch or (Shop Canada | Shop Australia)
- 1/8″ hole punch
- Baker’s twine or ribbon
Step 1: Punch out reindeers and sleighs from various patterned paper.
Step 2: Punch a hole on the reindeer heads under the antlers using a hole punch.
Step 3: String the reindeers and sleighs using baker’s twine or ribbon
Step 4: Wrap around your miniature Christmas tree!

Very Cute.
What a cute garland! We don’t use garlands on our Christmas tree–but it might be worth a try to add something. :-)
My grandson (7 yrs. old) will love this.
Great idea for a smaller scale. Creative!!!
Mini sages are so cute, I loved it.
