It’s that time of year again–the one that sneaks up on you even though you swear it won’t: it’s Christmas!

I’m not much of a seasonal decorator, but I  L O  V E  to decorate for Christmas. Over the years, I’ve come across several simple, yet elegant, DIY decorations that are fairly simple to make AND easy on the wallet. Because let’s face it: you’d rather spend the extra cash on that Power Wheels Jeep your 3-year-old has been eyeing for the last 6 months.

Now, get out the eggnog, put on your favorite Christmas music, and get crafting with these 10 Christmas DIY projects on a budget.

1. Twine Star

Balance elaborate decorations with this simple twine star. It adds an elegant touch and more importantly, it’ll prevent your decorations from “going Griswold” (Christmas Vacation, anyone?) .

Check out the how-to on this star and other DIY projects at Lowe’s.com.

2. Ice Luminaries

This Christmas DIY is seriously genius. All you need is some water, a couple of aluminum cans, a few sprigs of holiday swag, and a tea light, and you’re in business. The result is a beautiful luminary that you can use to line the path to your house, or scatter them around your porch–a great way to welcome guests during the holidays.
