A Homemade Christmas
So, this Christmas I’m gonna give it a try. Make…most….gifts…. I know, I know. Crazy, right? Well, someone has to be crazy so it might as well be me!
The above photo is going to hold some of our Christmas cards this year. Hooray! I used a wooden round box top, corks and a glue gun. That’s it. Like really. Super easy.
I even have extra corks and plan to do some Pinteresty craft.
Other things I’m considering are lotion bars, mason jars full of cookies and treats, scarf wreaths, tent making kits, and jewelry.
And then there’s that candlemaking kit my husband got me like 10 years ago. Yep. Getting it out and doing it!
In my efforts to be intentional with gift-giving, I’m turning to the obvious, neglected things I have in my house. But things that people make are just special. I want my loved ones to feel special…unique…well-loved.
Leave a comment. Are you planning to make anything? What and why?
Happy crafting!

Each year I like to bake trays of cookies, specialty breads and candies to give. One year I did homemade apple and pear butters – I think homemade gifts are a wonderful way to show the special people in your life how much you care.
