I made posh Christmas decorations from bargain Poundland finds – you'd never know they were so cheap | The Sun

WITH Christmas right around the corner loads of us are in the process of transforming out homes for the big day.

But all those glitzy decorations can add up, especially if you like to go all-out.


Well it turns out you don't have to spend a fortune for your home to look extra festive and posh this Christmas, as DIY lover Rosie Henshaw explained on her YouTube account.

Rosie picked up some supplies from Poundland and got to work making some decorations.

She started by making some mini wool Christmas trees using polystyrene cones, which were in the craft section of the shop, but are also available in places the The Works and The Range, according to the DIY lover.

"If you can't get hold of these you could use card or even use party hats from the party section and do it that way, which I have done before," she added.

Rosie then used some green wool and wrapped it around each cone and glued each end to the cone.

Once both cones are covered you can add any decorations you like, Rosie used mini white pompoms, also from Poundland, and a star which she cut out of some card.

Finally, the crafty mum inserted a wooden dowel, also from Poundland, into the bottom of the tree to form the stand.

She then glued the dowel onto a 'log slice' for the base of the tree, and the finished thing looked so posh.

"They have a packet of three, which I think is a bit stingy, they could've put a few more in of these little log slices," she explained.

She added: "You could make a whole village of these, you could even cut down the polystyrene trees to make slightly smaller versions."

The Scandi-inspired decorations looked loads more expensive than they cost to make.

And the best part is you could even rope your kids in to help out with making them.

"They look so expensive, you would never ever know that all of these items were purchased from the pound shop," Rosie raved.

Viewers loved the simple craft idea as well, one wrote: "They are all fabulous Rosie, I can’t pick a favourite. All quite simple as well for the beginner crafter – love it."

A second commented: "Omg loved all of theses craft ideas. Definitely going to make them."

And a third agreed: "Aww you have given me inspo for decoration for out school canteen tables!"
