  1. Tiny Tree

    Arguably the best feature of this ornament is its versatility- it can be arranged on your office desk, kitchen table, or added to your arsenal of adorable DIY Christmas Party. Emulate this lovely piece by fashioning a rope ring (held together with hot glue) to fit the bottom of a glass globe ornament. Next, select a large, clear glass globe ornament to showcase a brilliantly miniature terrarium. Partially fill the globe with dark moss, and place a slender pine cutting inside. Display your darling sapling on a wood tabletop or wall shelf. Photo from Buzzfeed

    Personify everyone’s favorite reindeer with a few simple pieces. This DIY Christmas decoration will be a striking centerpiece at your glitzy holiday party.

  7. Baby Bunting Banner

    This Christmas party decoration will wonderfully garnish your loft or studio-sized Christmas tree. Yes, you can still host the perfect holiday gathering in your apartment, thanks to the help of tiny and thoughtful decorations. Recreate this scaled-down garland by cutting tiny diamond-shaped pieces from a burlap bolt. Cut a long strand of natural twine, and place it on a long table. Space out and position your fabric diamonds beneath the twine, so you can fold it in half over the string. Next, using a mini hot glue gun, place a small dot of hot glue on the bottom of each diamond and fold the top over the twine to create tiny bunting triangles. Once the garland is dry, wrap it around your miniature Christmas tree or potted topiary to complete your holiday décor. Photo from Buzzfeed

  9. Hot Cocoa Bar

    Add an utterly charming look to your beverage table with this Christmas party decoration idea. Rather than tossing a handful of cocoa packets next to a thermos of hot water, put some love into your drink bar spread, which will surely bring holiday cheer. For this idea, select a large, plain blackboard to be your backdrop. Spray paint the edges white to give it a frosted appearance. Use a broad-tipped white chalk marker to write, “Hot Chocolate Bar” in big, bold, beautiful lettering, and hang the sign behind your beverage table. Next, arrange a pedestal cake stand (topped with a tree slice), a wooden box, and a crate on the table. Fill mason jars with hot cocoa toppings, such as whipped cream, marshmallows, and peppermint shavings, and place the filled jars atop the stand and box. Fill the crate with matching mugs , and place a steaming carafe of hot cocoa on the table. Complete this look by positioning a mini Christmas tree among your decorations.
