8 free modern DIY himmeli tutorials
Welcome to the Cosy Craft Club's himmeli month! We really want to encourage you to have a go at making your own himmeli, and we'll be sharing the key things you need to know to get started. You can find all our himmeli posts in one place here.
Himmeli is one of those crafts that looks really complicated, but is actually relatively straightforward to create and it also uses few supplies. It’s a geometric, minimalist style which would look great in any home. So why not give it a try with these free tutorials? I’ve picked 8 great tutorials which cover a range of himmeli designs from simple ornaments to a whole coffee table!
A Crafted Passion - How to make himmeli ornaments
These ornaments are the classic himmeli style that most people will have come across, and they look so lovely on a Christmas tree. Learn how to make your own with this tutorial from A Crafted Passion.
Home Depot - DIY side table with himmeli base from copper pipe
This is next-level himmeli - a coffee table! I love how the design aesthetic of himmeli has been scaled up to create a chunky, functional piece of furniture. Head over to Home Depot to see the full tutorial.
I Spy DIY - Himmeli triangle succulent holder
Completely on trend, this DIY from I Spy DIY combines himmeli, metallics, minimalism and succulents! What more could you want?!
Lily Ardor - Himmeli light fixture
I love this modern take on himmeli from Lily Ardor, with its abstract shape. This would be a real statement piece in any home.
Lovely Indeed - DIY brass and suede geometric garland
Perhaps not technically himmeli, but this simple garland from Lovely Indeed uses the same techniques here and the effect is really pretty.
Sincerely Jean - DIY geometric orb
Himmeli lends itself so well to mathematical geometric shapes, and this tutorial from Sincerely Jean makes a beautiful orb. Like many tutorials it uses drinks straws spray painted a metallic colour!
The House That Lars Built - Scandinavian Christmas garland
Himmeli is so strongly associated with Christmas, and this beautiful Scandinavian garland with its himmeli features is perfect for a minimalist Christmas theme. Plus, The House That Lars Built have created something so bright and simple that it could be on display all year round!
Vintage Revivals - DIY geometric himmeli wreath
I just love this wreath from Vintage Revivals, it shows off the geometric himmeli style at its best. The picture shows three wreaths - maybe you can’t stop after you’ve made just one?!
