DIY Decorations

Why spend your money on Christmas decorations when you can make them on your own. Get creative in the next few weeks, and come up with a way to craft greetings cards, Christmas wreaths, and everything else in between.

Textile Hobbies

Textile-based hobbies experienced a huge surge in popularity this year, and fall is the perfect time to practice them. Knitting and crocheting make sense, now more than ever, because you’ll actually get to wear the clothes you make.

Puzzles

Puzzles can be time-consuming, but you’ll have a lot of time on your hands during cold and gloomy days. If you don’t feel like heading out, put on some good music and spend a day inside with your favorite puzzle.

Cookie Icing

If you prefer spending time in the kitchen, it’s time to fire up your oven. Baking banana bread is so passé, and you’ll have much more fun baking delicious cookies and decorating them with royal icing.

We know that the idea of making DIY lip balm sounds a bit unnecessary and complicated, but it’s actually not. First, it’s not complicated if you follow the recipe. But most importantly, you’ll know exactly what kind of ingredients you’re using to make your lip balm, which is great. This lip balm will help your lips stay hydrated and shiny all day long and it also smells incredible.

Huda Beauty shared this interesting recipe on their website, commenting that this “lip balm leaves your lips feeling super soft and nourished, plus it has a sweet rose tint.” That’s more than enough reasons to give this DIY lip balm a chance.

Ingredients:

• 2 tsp of virgin coconut oil
• 2 tsp of Argan oil
• 2 tsp of Olive oil
• Colored berry lipstick

Instructions:

1. In a pan on a low heat, melt together the coconut oil with about 1 cm of lipstick and add it into the pan.
2. Add in the oils and stir well.
3. Leave it on the heat for two to three minutes and then pour it into a small dish or an old lip balm tin.
4. Leave it in the fridge to set for a few hours.

Bananas

This potassium-rich fruit works wonders on your skin, leaving it feeling softer and moisturized. Mash a ripe banana and let it sit on your face for 10 minutes before washing. Life-changing!

Oatmeal

You may have noticed that oatmeal is a common ingredient in face washes and moisturizers. That’s because oatmeal contains acne-fighting agents and can quickly soothe irritated skin. A simple mix of warm water and oatmeal on your face for 15 minutes can work wonders.

Avocado

Not only for toast and guac! Avocado is extremely moisturizing and can quickly fix dry, flaky skin. Mash a ripe avocado with a fork and apply it to dry skin for 15 minutes. Wash it off with warm water and prepare to be amazed.

Eggs

Though you may have never dreamed of smearing eggs all over your face, they actually have powerful skin-tightening effects. Beat a single egg white and apply it to the face for 10 minutes. Rinse with warm water and moisturize as usual.

The good news is that you can make your own bath bombs at home and that’s a totally different experience because then you can add your favorite essential oils, colors, and scents. Abbey from The Daily Greens shared this recipe for DIY bath bombs and we can’t wait to try it.

Ingredients

1. 1 Cup Bi-Carb Soda
2. 1/2 Cup Citric Acid
3. 1/2 Cup Epsom Salts
4. 1/2 Cup Arrowroot Powder
5. 3 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (or sub for another carrier oil like sweet almond or jojoba)
6. Water
7. 10-15 Drops Essential Oils (whichever one you like)
8. Sprinkling of Dried Flowers

Instructions

• Combine all dry ingredients in one bowl.
• Combine oil, water, and essential oils in a separate bowl or jug.
• Slowly pour the liquid mixture into the dry mixture, whisking it through as you go. If it starts to fizz, slow down!
• Add a little more water to achieve a wet sand-like texture. If you squeeze it in your hand it should hold its shape.
• Work quite quickly pressing the mixture into the molds.  The foam will want to expand so pack it in tight before trapping it in with the lid.
• Leave them to dry overnight/12 hours – the longer the better.
• Gently remove the balls (or whatever shape you’ve created) out of the molds and store them.

Art Therapy Activities

Who doesn’t love adult coloring books? They’re so much fun while being therapeutic. Now, paint-by-numbers have become super trendy and we’re not just talking about those basic ones you did in elementary school. The adult versions are complex enough to hang on your wall after you finish. You can even download coloring pages online.

Stained Glass Crafts

Add some color to any room with stained glass crafts. These crafts are even available in mosaic kits which have everything you need to complete your project. When you’re done, you can give these as a gift.

Eco-Friendly Crafts

It seems like everything these days is becoming more sustainable and crafts is no exception. Try upcycling items from the thrift stores, recycling materials, and using natural dyes.

This DIY project is very easy, fun, and inexpensive if you don’t mind foraging for a few pine cones in your back yard.

You’ll need:

• Pine cones
• Cookie sheet
• Essential oil
• Gallon-sized plastic zip-top bag

Instructions

1. Find pinecones outside and give them a rinse if they’re dirty.
2. Put the pinecones on a foil-lined baking sheet and put them in the 200° oven for 30 minutes to kill off any germs or bacteria. Let them cool.
3. Put them in a ziplock bag and add essential oil drop by drop. How many drops you add depends on your preference.
4. Let them sit in the bag at least for a day – the longer they sit, the more aroma they have!
5. Put them in a bowl and decorate.

Another way to do this is to fill a spray bottle with water and add essential oil. Once you spray the cones, place them in the bag and leave them to sit.
