One particular DIY has emerged as bigger than ever for 2017: giant balloon lights. Pinterest reports that there has been a 1024 per cent increase in searches and saves for the DIY.

One of the popular pins for giant balloon lights comes from the blog Living Locurto. You can find their step-by-step DIY tutorial here.

They really light up and look awesome at night! ❓ What's YOUR favorite Christmas movie???
