Twentieth Day of Christmas: DIY Photoframe and Wreath

For this I don't think you need the text, unless you'd like it so. I would rather put a photo in the middle, something Christmas-y, like a Christmastree. You can basically put anything you want in the frame.
Now the wreath is a bit trickier, you need some heavy set wire and some relatively thin wire, to get all the branches to keep together and the leaves, so they don't fall off. Now you could use a glue gun for parts as well, but I prefer never using my gluegun unless absolutely necessary...

For the stars you need some white pipe cleaner, suitable size in your opinion and then start rolling them up into starlooking thingies!
I am so bad at explaining things, aren't I?

Second Day of Christmas: Tulle and Snowflakes Wreath DIY

My second day of DIY Christmas ideas, this time a wreath made of tulle and glittery snowflakes. Now for this one there's no tutorial, but there's plenty of pictures (one I snapped from Pinterest) so you'll know what it's supposed to look like.
I'm going to give you a little hint how it may be possible to make:
You need a hell of a lot of tulle, at least three metres. And you need some band, preferable not elastic and preferable quite wide to connect the tulle to the band, so that it folds properly.
Then you need either ready glittery snowflakes, or snowflakes and glue and glitter (or just glitter glue). And there you are!
