This year a decided to make about 90% of our Christmas gifts. Half way into it I wanted to pull my hair out and everyone elses who came within three feet of me. That was my own fault because I procrastinated, and waited until 3 weeks before Christmas. In the end, I completed my gifts and they were all received with smiles. Personally, I would rather receive a handmade gift over a storebought anyday. I love the story behind them, and knowing that that person put so much of their time and thought into it. It felt really good to be that person this year. I think I have started my own little tradition, but next year I shall start several months ahead of time:)
So, the main bulk of my gifts were Car Trash Bags with matching Key Fobs. Two things that I had made for myself and absolutely love. So, I made 36 of these beauties. Hopefully, some of the recipients are enjoying a cleaner car, and lose there keys a little less often:)
My last three gifts, were for three very special kiddos. I love snuggling up in blankets, especially handmade blankets. So,early in the morning on Christmas Eve, I created these three blankets. They were so super soft and cute. I had to resist a little snuggle with them myself:)
I already have a few ideas for next year. Although, I seem to struggle with gifts for all of the men. I do have a little more than 11 month. Hopefully, something will come to me.
I hope you all had a wonderful and blessed Christmas! Many wishes of happiness to you in your New Year!
