Making a Christmas Spider is an easy craft to do. The supplies can be purchased in a craft store, and the directions can be found at the site below. Make sure you print out the story that goes along with it. The other site is for a glass ornament with a beach scene inside. It would work well with your craft night theme.

Dye some uncooked Macaroni and string it into necklaces or long garlands along with Popcorn.
Christmas Angels out of paper plates and doylies, plastic eggs, and Acrylic paints:
Cut the paper plates in half; wrap around the middle of the plastic eggs and glue.
Cut the doylies into quarters and glue to the backs of the eggs for wings. Paint as desired. Use metallic paint on top of eggs for halo...

A wonderful Christmas craft is cookie in a jar what you do is pass to a craft save or perhaps the groceries save and what it extremely is, is each and all the dry aspects in a jar and it seems extremely wonderful

There are lots of plastic canvas patterns that make up quickly. One year we did a little reindeer head that you squeeze and there's a candy kiss inside.
Another cute craft is a felt candy cane mouse. But I would do the eyes in fabric paint because those plastic ones never stay on.

depending on what area of the "world" you are in, gather pine cones and let them dry. Spray paint metallic gold, let dry, then add a red bow on the large end and a hanger Makes great ornaments.

I think making pop-up cards is a pretty cool idea. Check this website out:

Check out this ornament box, http://www.funkychica.com/DIY/diyPage.php?Id=39&Title=Snowflake%20Box%20Ornament . Not sure if you can make this in 20 min, but seems pretty straight forward.
