Scandinavian-style decorations have been a hit in recent years. Minimalistic decorations made of wooden beads will bring harmony and peace to the interior.

• Finally, connect all the tabs so there is one bead between each, and attach the string for hanging.

Rings made of wooden beads

You can create impressive rings by stringing wooden beads onto a round wire. Tie the two ends together and thread a thin string of cotton through them for hanging.

Colorful flasks in Scandinavian style

If you like clean Nordic-style decorations, you don’t have to be afraid of using soft colors. Stick to pastel tones and combine them with metallic colors to add a festive touch to these beaded Christmas decorations.

What you will need:

• wooden balls of different sizes
• wood paint in pastel and metallic shades
• brush
• thin masking tape
• small eye screws
• perhaps or a drill with a thin drill bit
• decorative string or ribbon for hanging

Method:

1. Use a drill or a drill to make a small hole in the wooden balls and screw eye screws into it.
2. Stick strips of masking tape on the balls.
3. Using the glued strips, always color one half with a pastel color and the other half with a metallic color.
4. You can combine several colors simultaneously or leave part of the beads naturally.
5. Let the colors dry completely.
6. Thread the string for hanging on the finished Christmas decorations made of beads.

Christmas wreath made of wooden beads

At first glance, a simple wreath made of wooden beads may be a bit more complicated DIY, but with our instructions, you can do it with a little patience. The result is definitely worth it, and the wooden base will remain with you for years to come.

What you will need:

• 30x wooden beads with a diameter of 25 mm
• 30x wooden beads with a diameter of 15 mm
• approx. 3 meters of thin wire
• cutting pliers
• twigs for decoration
• string for hanging

Method:

1. Start threading the wire in the center. Thread the more giant ball first.
2. Thread one larger and one smaller ball to it.
3. At the opposite end of the wire, thread a giant ball onto both ends to intersect in the ball.
4. Tighten both ends until all four balls are together.
5. Now, you will repeat the same procedure several times.
6. Always string one large ball on the left end of the wire and one small ball on the right end, and then connect the two sides with a large ball where both ends of the wire cross.
7. Continue this way around until you have formed a circle.
8. Once you have 15 more petite balls on the inside of the circle, it’s time to close the circle.
9. You do this by joining the two sides in the usual way, but this time not in the newly threaded ball, but in the ball you threaded at the beginning.
10. Now, you have each end of the wire on one side of the circle. So thread the inner end first through a small ball and then through a giant ball so that it reaches the outside.
11. Both ends will now lead from two sides of the same larger ball. Thread a smaller ball onto the right end.
12. Behind it, lead a wire with a larger ball next to it. Then thread the smaller ball again and pull the wire through the next big ball.
13. Repeat this process equally in both directions of the circle so that you do not shorten only one side of the wire.
14. Once you get both ends of the wire to the same ball, wrap the wire around the existing wire between the balls, tie and clip the rest.
15. Using the remaining wire, attach a green twig to the bottom of the circle and bend the ends of the wire to the back of the wreath.
16. Attach the string for hanging.

Christmas trees made of buttons

Interested in threading? Then you don’t have to stick strictly to just beads.

You can create magical and funny decorations very easily also from colored buttons. The principle of their production is the same.

What you will need:

• colored buttons of different sizes
• decorative cord for hanging
• star shaped bead
• cotton
• needle

Method:

1. Prepare the buttons in the order in which you will thread them.
2. First, thread a tip, decorative bead, or star.
3. Then thread the rest of the tree using buttons of different sizes.
4. Thread the cotton through the entire tree from the bottom up.
5. You now have two longer ends of cotton on top. Tie the ends to make a loop for hanging.

Don’t be afraid to use unconventional colors. Brightly colored button trees will be more visible when hung on the Christmas tree.

Christmas decorations made of beads combine a number of advantages. They are unconventional and impressive and at the same time very simple to make. Try them to complete your home Christmas atmosphere this year.
