Some ways to get a head start on the holidays ....

Don't let the Holidays creep up on you!  Here are some ideas you can begin to work on now!







Make a Woven Ribbon Christmas Pillow as a gift or for your home.




Hand paint white paper bags and be ready to wrap your gifts quickly!


Give thought to the needy or homeless during the winter months.


Make a personalized ornament for that special friend.


Make some fudge for the neighbors - this stores well!


Make a cute framed gift for a friend or a teacher.


Make silverware pockets/place cards for your table


Make a quick and easy wreath for a neighbor or friend.


Forego the traditional bow and paint some cinnamon sticks.


Turn an ornament into a tassel - great gift!


Make 10 minute Peanut Brittle - delicious and easy to make

I hope you found a little inspiration here!
