Here is an easy one. It's a wreath.
You need a wire hanger.
Lots of clear plastic, like from the cleaners.
Just fold the plastic like a fan, and take the wire hanger (open it) and put it though the plastic folds. Keep packing it until the wire is full. Then close it by twisting the wire like a twisty. To make it look pretty, trim around it and spray it with a colored spray paint, and or, spay snow. Put a ribbon on the top. It is really pretty and very easy. You can attatch ornaments, that's optional.
Another project would be to paint little shaped pieces of wood for a ornament. You can get them at Michaels craft store.

what kind of plastic? How do you open a wire hanger. I've never done that, and I have plenty of them. This sounds similiar to the craft my daughter started in school and we are going to finish. They did open the hanger, and they tie sandwhich bags to it. You end up making a wreath. It is so neat!

Make homemade ornaments with salt dough. Buy some precut ornaments and give them some glue, glitter and sequins. Take two cds and glue the backsides together. Add large holiday stickers to the shiny side. Go around the edges with Aleenes snow glue.
