Introducing DIY Christmas tree and Ornaments

Well, first of all, greetings to everyone who comes to see my blog though this is only the second one hahahaha XD
 In this blog I am going to explain my crocheting 'journey' a bit and let you in to all the instructions to make some of the Christmas ornaments.

And yes, since we reached the festive season of Christmas, where our Saviour, Son of God, came down to us to save us from all the sorrows suffered by the people. 
'Thou shall celebrate as thou is receiving the greatest present ever from Him.'  
  ----the quote is only from me, no offence. 

So as to that, I tried on doing some crocheting since knitting looks kinda hard (for me). Bought some crochet hooks of 2mm to 10mm. Though i did buy some smaller ones which are 0.75mm and 1mm which is mainly used for lace.



This is the set that I bought from Taobao which only costs RM17.90 . This is the cheapest to buy if you just need some crochet hooks without caring much about quality. It works just fine to me ^-^ 

I was at a lost before as to give what kind of Christmas present I should give to my godmother. Then, I came across some pins in Pinterest. There were quite a lot of posts on Christmas giveaways to family members. Then a thought came to my mind, how about I make one crocheted DIY for her, so I searched for the one that is quite easy and that does not require much skill (pardon me, I am just a beginner at crocheting). 

Okay. Poof!

This is the Christmas presents my godparents received from me and my siblings. Big lot of chocolate bars for her sons XD


And this is the Christmas tree that I made by myself.

It only requires a bit of materials you can get from your house:
  1. Crochet hook of 5mm
  2. Cream-coloured yarn (any colour is okay)- 2 and a 1/2 balls of yarn
  3. Beads of different sizes- chose green and red for Christmas theme
  4. Letter buttons 
  5. Threads and scissors
  6. Hot glue gun
  7. Thin cardboard 
  8. Old newspapers
  9. Cellotape
and I guess that's all you need to have.

I did the crochet only with the guide of Youtube tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18h7Tpjxzl8). The pattern is quite easy as when you do it over times.
