Upcycled Christmas decorations are a beautiful way to decorate for the holidays – without breaking the budget.

This year especially – don’t we need a little more holiday magic and beauty in our homes? I know I’m feeling that way.

One of my pick-me-up activities is thrifting. It always sparks my imagination which ignites my mood.

I love a good deal, sure, but what I love most is a chance to make something unique. And upcycled craft supplies are a low risk way to get really creative.

So this weird year I’ve got a plan to fill some of these endless “safe at home” hours with festive Christmas craft ideas with repurposed supplies. I plan to create a bunch of Christmas decorations from reclaimed materials to fill my home – and my time.

Being creative soothes my soul – and dang my soul needs comfort right now. Yours too?

With this in mind, I thought you may be feeling similarly so I pulled together this collection of creative upcycled Christmas decorations ideas to lift our spirits!
