Santa Candy Sleighs

Incredibly simple yet super cute Santa Candy Sleighs!

First, what you need is: mini candy bars, candy canes, hot glue gun and glue sticks, small ribbons or twine. Optional materials: small bows, stickers, or other decorative elements.

  • Firstly, lay two candy canes parallel to each other, with the curved ends facing outward. These will serve as the “runners” of the sleigh.
  • Use the hot glue gun to attach the mini candy bars to the top of the candy canes, creating the body of the sleigh.
  • Apply additional hot glue as needed to ensure the candy bars are securely attached to the candy canes.
  • If desired, use small ribbons, twine, bows, or other decorative elements to embellish the Candy Sleighs.

  • Allow the hot glue to fully dry and set before handling the Candy Sleighs.

Note that you must be careful when using the hot glue gun. If it can be replaced with other tapes, it can be used. The essence of Candy Sleighs is candy canes and Santa Claus-shaped chocolates (cookies are also available)!

Of course, it’s not just about candy. The shape of the Christmas sleigh can come in various variations. You can pull two ropes in the hands of “Santa Claus” and connect them to the gifts you have prepared. I believe that will definitely make your gifts get the most attention!

Reindeer Christmas Wine Bottle Cover

The elk is also a classic element that we often see in various Christmas decorations. How to use the image of the elk has never been a problem: two small black eyes, a red round nose, classic camel antlers…that’s classic Elk image. As long as you grasp these few points, you can make almost anything look like an elk, wine bottles, cookies, snacks, cups, sugar…literally anything.

But the one I recommend here is quite special. It is a bag that is used with specific gifts. It is a Wine Bottle Cover. Well, although it is a wine bottle cover, you may not necessarily use it to hold wine, you know? But if the gift you want to give is a bottle of red wine, then this cute elk knitted wine bottle cover will be the best cover to wrap your wine bottle! Even if it wasn’t Christmas, I would still love such a cute bottle cover!

Santa Overalls Bag

So cute, this bag uses Santa’s overalls to create a bag! Red legs, black belt and classic white hem…that’s Santa!

This cute little bag can even be carried by hand, and the two small legs can hold a lot of things. Whether you want to carry wrapped gifts, candies, or even a pair of shoes, it is perfect! My suggestion is to tie your gift with a green ribbon and put it inside, so that the green of the ribbon and the red of the bag itself combine to become a classic two-color Christmas!

Christmas Stacking Boxes

Everyone has built a snowman, right? A snowball plus a bigger snowball, a carrot, and two small black dots can be a snowman. The same principle applies to Christmas Stacking Boxes.

Prepare your gifts, just two boxes, one large and one small, wrap them in corresponding colors, stack them, and then decorate them, and you will get a set of Christmas Stacking Boxes! If you are too lazy to make your own, you can also buy ready-made ones: many people now make such Christmas gift boxes.

This type of Christmas gift bag ideas can come from many images, such as Santa Claus, elk, snowman, and Olaf, Peter Pan, etc. which have become very popular in recent years. As long as you capture the main characteristics of the characters, you can make your own Christmas Stacking Boxes. This is not too difficult handmade DIY, and if you gather your family’s gifts together and make a few of these Christmas Stacking Boxes, then the scenery next to the Christmas tree will definitely look really nice!

 

Classic Red and Green Packaging

Everyone’s default rule is that red and green are the binary colors of Christmas! Although these two colors are usually difficult to match together, the red and green that can be seen everywhere at Christmas are so harmonious and beautiful!

The red and green colors of Christmas are very classic, pure, and highly saturated colors. In fact, using only these two colors, you can create many beautiful Christmas gift bag ideas that are both classic and fashionable.

It would be better if your gifts are packaged collectively. On the day of exchanging gifts, everyone’s gifts will be put together. Although everyone’s Christmas gift bag is different, it will look particularly harmonious and beautiful.

Christmas matching color rule: The color of the wrapping paper can be red, green, white, as well as the colors of the ribbon, and the pattern of the wrapping paper can use some basic graphic transformations: polka dots, plaid, vertical lines, diamonds, etc. Just make sure the color of the wrapping paper and the ribbon don’t overlap in large areas, and there are still countless options for you.

This packaging method, I originally called it No. 1 on the list of “super cute but easy to make”!

All you need is a piece of wrapping paper and two short ropes/ribbons! If you have extra Christmas-themed wrapping paper, or just plain green or red wrapping paper, you can make this giant candy-shaped wrapper!

Prepare the items you need to pack. If they are scattered small items (such as a bunch of broken candies), you can tie them together in a small bag in advance. Then wrap them with the wrapping paper you have on hand, round or long, any shape is acceptable. Reserve both ends for ribbons, and then tie a beautiful bow with your ribbons!

Regarding the matching of wrapping paper and ribbons, you can check out the Christmas matching color rule I wrote above!
