Handmade Christmas

I know what you're thinking.. it's too early for Christmas just yet. But I'm planning on making as much as I can, and I still might have left it too late!

The biggest problem I can see, other than running out of time, is blogging about things and giving away the surprise.

So instead of doing that I have put together a collection of things I would like to make as gifts!

  3. Sweeeeeeet! Hello via FYBF. These are cute. I have made candles and my hubby is taking some off to the family in Scotland on Monday. I think I might blog about them as the family don't read my blog much, should be OK. Now I need to start on the Xmas cake. Am determined not to be rendered hysterical by Christmas this year.

  4. All are such fantastic ideas! And it's never too early for Christmas, especially if you are hand making the gifts :)
