Make Your Own Christmas Decorations

Perhaps you’d like to have a go at making your own Christmas decorations, but you’re not able to get to the Blackthorpe Barn craft workshops. For you, we have some make-at-home videos to give you some ideas and guidance.

Rustic decorations are still popular and are nicely affordable. Have a go at making your own twig star or bauble by following Ady’s videos below. They were recorded during the lockdown of 2020.

Why not put a photo up on social media, tagging us with #BlackthorpeBarn or @BlackthorpeBarn to show us how you got on. We’re looking forward to see what you create!

For craft supplies to make other decorations, why not come to the Country Christmas Shop at Blackthorpe Barn, where we also have a vast selection of finished decorations too, which you can mix and match with those you make for yourself.

Crafts at Blackthorpe Barn

If you’d like to see what professional craft-makers create, do pay a visit to Crafts at Blackthorpe Barn, held for 6 weekends each year during November and December. On these days, the barn is full of extremely talented makers who are happy to talk of their inspirations and to sell their creations.
