Wood decor and rustic projects are some of the top trends in design this year. If predictions hold true, they’ll continue to be enormously popular for years to come. That’s because wood offers a traditional and timeless look. It’s classic and classy.
As you start to look at DIY Christmas gift tutorials, consider gifts that offer long-term decor.
The first step in creating your own Christmas gifts with wood is finding the materials. You can go to your local craft store to purchase pre-cut wood or visit your lumber store for scraps of wood or long planks of wood. Or you can use left over scraps from your last flooring project, meaning making gifts from laminate flooring! Yep! All of these DIY gifts can also be made with laminate flooring!
DIY Welcome Sign
Welcome signs are a wonderful gift for any home owner! They add a warm welcome to anyone who may come to their place. It also adds some curb appeal! You can easily use scraps of laminate for this project, or a plank of wood from the local lumber yard. If there’s a word that’s more appropriate for your family member you’re gifting this to, use it instead of the traditional greeting! The ability to personalize gifts is what makes DIY gifts so awesome!
