A Heart-Felt Christmas
Give your guests the warmest of welcomes with a handmade wreath that's truly evergreen thanks to its quick-cut felt sprigs and pom-pom berries.

Note: Not all felts are the same. Pure-wool felt is like a sweater — it will shrink when washed — so save it for ornaments and candleholders. For items that may need some cleaning (e.g., pillows or stockings), a felt that's a wool-rayon blend or an acrylic is a better choice.
All Spruced Up
Woolly pinecones, twisty icicles, a ruffled two-tone garland, and a scalloped tree skirt — all made of felt! — complement lushly hued spheres and metallic orbs that multiply the twinkle from string lights.
Into the Woods
Turn your table into a winter wonderland with cut-out felt trees glued onto candleholders filled with faux snow. Place settings in a palette of white, green, and silver make the scene as serene as the snowdrifts outdoors.
It's a Wrap!
So much more than a bow, a flower made of snipped and folded felt isn't just a gift topper, but also a keepsake. It can later find new life as a tree ornament or a child's hair bauble.
Sweet Dreams
Cue the visions of sugarplums! Pillows with snipped-out and glued-on holly leaves and letters provide holiday cheer at bedtime. Using offbeat shades like mauve, rust, and ocher gives classic red and white a fresh twist.
Christmas Countdown
With all the staring outside that happens now (searching for snow or flying reindeer), why not give a prominent window some attention, too? Dress it up with an Advent calendar of muslin bags filled with treats; drape a garland of pinking-sheared leaves along its frame.
Stocking Feat
Folksy and whimsical, these embellished booties with blanket-stitched edges are just begging to be filled by Santa. Among the chic yet simple felt flourishes: pinwheels, faux foliage, stripes, and more.
