Green and gold xmas tree

It’s that time of the year again—the one that brings out the nostalgic Mariah Carey in all of us. But we at Bored Panda want to bring out the penny-wise Santa in us and help you deck the walls without decking out your bank account. Because let’s admit it, nothing feels more joyful than making fantastic Christmas decor while saving a few bucks.

Besides the snow, it’s not hard to know that it’s Christmas time. Stores, homes, and really anything that can support a garland will be festooned with some sort of decor. While these can range from cheap and tacky to intricate and ornate, there are a few people out there who take it upon themselves to make something new and special for the holidays.

Have you put up your Christmas tree yet? No? It’s already 15 days into the advent and another 10 days until Christmas—what are you waiting for!?
