Upcycling Ideas for Christmas Home Decor

Upcycling Ideas for Christmas Home Decor

If there’s anything I’ve learned in my years as a blogger, it would be that (A) just about everyone loves a Christmas project, and (B) ESPECIALLY if they’re upcycled or repurposed! And since I’ve already put together collections of upcycled Christmas ornaments and repurposed Christmas wreaths already, this time I’m focused on upcycling ideas for Christmas home decor.

Putting together this collection of upcycling ideas for Christmas home decor or recycled Christmas decor was particularly fun. I’ve certainly made a few myself, such as these small tabletop Christmas trees in wooden candle holders:

And these Christmas luminaries in light bulb cages that I upcycled!

Whether you need a Christmas project for your holiday table or your fireplace mantel, or even just unique Christmas decorations for anywhere in your home, there is undoubtedly an upcycling idea out there for you.

And it often uses something you can easily find at a thrift store, such as this cheese cloche that I upcycled into an ice skating scene!

And with vintage Christmas decorations so popular again, upcycling is a GREAT way to get the look of retro Christmas decor without breaking the bank. For instance, this vintage cola crate was broken and made for slightly larger bottles. In other words, PERFECT for upcycling!

And when the weather outside is- what is that song lyric again? Frightful? Then it’s the perfect time to create some DIY Christmas home decor in the warm and cozy comfort of your own home.

Here are a few more ideas for vintage Christmas decorations, if that’s what you’re into. After you hang your vintage ornaments on your Christmas tree, stack the ornament boxes together to show off their FABULOUS vintage graphics!
