This Little DIY Will Be The Most Charming Ornament On Your Tree

They also make great gifts!

You can never have too many Christmas ornaments -- especially when they look this adorable. With a few basic materials, you can create another awesome bauble to add to your collection. This particular demo uses miniature trees as the star of the wintery scene, but anything tall and narrow (like a "North Pole" light post or a faux candle) will do. Keep your creation for yourself or gift it to someone else to spread the joy.
