Now that it's getting chillier outside, these fun and festive Christmas paper crafts are a great way to keep you busy indoors. Rather than going out to buy ornaments, wrapping paper, advent calendars and other festive home decorations, these DIYs are a great way to fill your home with personal touches for a fraction of the cost of store-bought goods.
If you really want to go all out this year, you could make everything from nativity scenes to greeting cards, covering all the essentials that makes the holidays seem so special. As well as appealing to kids of all ages, some of these crafts also have a sophistication and a difficulty level that will also keep even the craftiest of adults entertained.
