Learn to Make Your Own
Making your own Christmas decorations offers you the opportunity not only to save money but also to flex your creative muscles. If you aren’t sure what to make or where to begin, sign up for a free decoration-making workshop at your favorite local craft store.
Michaels, for instance, hosts free classes on the Saturdays leading up to Christmas. Learn how to make festive ornaments, mini trees and other holiday decorations.
To participate in the Michaels classes, you might need to purchase the base of craft, such as a clear ornament or a wreath form. However, the store takes care of the add-on materials and everything else needed to complete the project.
