Don’t get me wrong – I love beautiful Christmas decorations.

Who doesn’t?

But I love Christmas decorations that have an element of humor and playfulness even more.

These 15 creative and fun DIY decorations will definitely spread cheer this holiday season. Whether they’re for your kids, the inside of your house, outdoor decorations or you’re just looking for ideas, we have you covered this Christmas!

DIY Deer Decor

These deer are just as cute as can be – and are even easier to make on your own. The best part? You can use supplies from the Dollar Store! Last year I hung 13 of these in random spots around my house and gave holiday guests a prize when they found all 13.

DIY Acrylic Deer Silhouette

Are you sensing a theme here? It’s a tiny bit more complicated, but this DIY acrylic deer is well worth it! Made with paint, acrylic glass and battery-operated lights, it makes a big statement on a small budget.

Looking for more Fun Christmas Ideas?

I have always loved this idea of hanging icicle lights from a hallway ceiling. I may have to try it this year. See what I’m talking about right here from Nest of Posies.

This Snowman Door from The Creative Stamper Spot has always been one of my favorites. I’ve done it on the outside before, but I love how hers is on the inside.
