Hey, friends! As we head into Christmas festivities, the IOD Team is taking a little break to spend time with our loved ones. But before we do, we wanted to leave you with some fun tutorials to delve into while we’re out! These small décor projects are perfect if you’ve got a little extra time on your hands or want to try something new this holiday season.

And if these tutorials aren’t quite what you’re looking for, don’t forget about our plethera of videos on YouTube. We know it’s easy to gravitate toward the new stuff but trust us—there are so many hidden gems in our older content that are totally worth revisiting!
