There’s something truly magical about the glimmer of glitter at Christmastime. Whether you’re decking the halls or creating handmade gifts, a touch of sparkle can elevate your festive décor and make your celebrations shine. Here at Hemway, we’re all about bringing that extra shimmer into your life, so we’ve rounded up five dazzling glitter craft ideas to keep your Christmas creative and bright.
1. Sparkling Christmas Tree Ornaments 🎄
Revamp plain baubles with a coat of glitter. Simply brush on PVA glue, sprinkle your favourite glitter colour over the surface, and let them dry. Try mixing colours like gold, red and emerald green for an extra Christmassy look. Also, why not personalise each ornament with a name or date for a truly unique touch?

2. DIY Glittery Christmas Cards 🎁
Nothing says "I care" like a handmade card. Use PVA glue to draw Christmas designs on folded card - think snowflakes, reindeer, snowmen or stars, and then cover with glitter. Combine with calligraphy or stamps for a truly personal greeting your friends and family will treasure. Add a sprinkle of glitter inside the envelope for a surprise sparkle when opened!

3. Glitter-Dipped Pinecones ✨
These are perfect for centrepieces or mantel decorations. Collect pinecones from a winter walk, then brush the tips with glue and dust with glitter. Silver or iridescent white gives a frosty effect, while rose gold or ruby red adds warmth and charm. Display them in a bowl with cinnamon sticks and dried orange slices for a naturally festive scent. You could even attach ribbon or string to make the pinecones into Christmas tree ornaments!

4. Festive Glitter Garland ❄️
Cut stars, snowflakes or Christmas trees from sturdy card, then coat with glitter and string together with twine or ribbon. Drape across your fireplace, walls or staircase for an easy handmade decoration with heaps of sparkle. For added charm, alternate with fairy lights or wooden beads to give your garland extra dimension.

5. Glittery Christmas Lanterns 🕯️
Use recycled jars to make charming lanterns - brush the inside with glue, then coat with fine glitter. Once dry, drop in battery-operated tea lights. When the light flickers, it’ll create a magical glow that sets the perfect Christmas mood. Cluster several in varying heights and colours for an elegant centrepiece or window display.
