Christmas· Winter

Are you rushing around trying to figure out a few last minute gifts for those on your list?  I have a great solution for you!  Decorate a small storage pail then add candy, cookies, or any small item to make these quick and easy Santa Christmas crafts.  These cute Christmas crafts take minutes to assemble but will make your recipient “Ho Ho Ho” in appreciation.

Santa-pail-Christmas-crafts-Crafts-Unleashed-3Supplies needed to make your own Santa gift Christmas crafts:supply2

  • Small Storage Pail
  • Square Rhinestone Sliders
  • 5/8″ Black Poly Satin Ribbon
  • Red Glitter Paper
  • Red and White Polka Dot Washi Tape
  • David Tutera Celebrate Labels
  • Red Sharpie Marker
  • Hot Glue Gun

Quick and Easy DIY Santa Gift PailCut a piece of ribbon long enough to wrap around the circumference of the pail. Thread the rhinestone slider buckle with the ribbon then wrap around the pail.  Secure the ribbon ends with a dot of hot glue.

Add a label to the top of the pail with the red and white polka dot washi tape. Write your To: and From: on the label tag.

Fill your Santa Christmas crafts pails with the contents of your choice. I simply added an assortment of red candy to one pail – and that gift is done!

    That was a great gift and easy to put together if you had the stuff you needed for it. Would be great kids gift or even hostess gift if she doesn’t worry about her weight (or get every body else to eat all the candy). I’ll have to keep this in mind for next year, accumulate the supplies ahead of time.
    You come up with such wonderful ideas Angie.
