This is the first of six posts that will hopefully get your creative juices flowing! We're going full speed ahead for our $100 Christmas goal; I think mostly what we'll buy is stocking stuffers. I go nuts about stuffing stockings:) Here's a glimpse at what lies ahead; for the next three weeks I'll do two posts each Saturday, in the following order.
- Fabric and Yarn Gifts
- Gifts in Jars
- Gifts for Guys and Gals
- Gifts Kids Can Make
- Edible Gifts
- Last Minute Gifts
You could also check the Make and Do archives as I think there are probably some good project ideas in there. The thing about brainstorming projects is that once you get started you end up with way more fantastic ideas that you have time for! My mind is already spinning after compiling these lists... Happy making!
Lovely table linens.
I would LOVE a basket of these felt rocks.
A reusable lunch set. Here's one in a pretty oil cloth.
Felt food! I've totally been looking for an excuse to make some of these amazing "snacks."
For little guys nuts about cars (or for any kid really, because it's that cool), how about a customized, oil cloth floor mat?
And for the girly-girl in your life, a super fluffy tutu!
A pointy hat from a felted sweater, or any type of hat really, the possibilities are endless! Oh, felted wool, how I love you...
Mittens with character.
Recycled sweater totes.
A sweet, stuffed critter.
And what more appropriate wrapping for such lovelies as some of this charming sewn packaging? Or perhaps some reusable, cloth gift bags?
PS Here's another fun book
