With Christmas rapidly approaching, I’m looking for your best homemade gift ideas! Handcrafted, homemade items offer a personal touch in our “a gift card always fits” world. And in today’s economy, an investment of time can go a long way in saving money this Christmas.
Later this week, I’ll be showing you some homemade skin care products that my sister and I recently made for our other sister who is getting married. We had so much fun making these unique gifts that I started wondering if my readers had homemade gifts that they regularly make and give….I’m betting you do!
So here’s what I would like for you to do:
- Submit your favorite DIY gifts, projects, foods, drink mixes–whatever! If it’s on your blog or somewhere else online, submit the URL.
- If it’s not already online and it’s your own, submit the recipe, step-by-step instructions, and photos.
- Email to admin (at) faithful provisions (dot) com.
When you send in your ideas this week, you’ll be entered into a drawing to win a FREE, autographed copy of my book, Saving Savvy: Smart and Easy Ways to Cut Your Spending in Half and Raise Your Standard of Living…and Giving!
I can’t wait to see your ideas!
I can’t wait for ideas. This weekend I emptied my upright freezer so I can start my baking for holidays and Christmas gifts I will be done by mid Nov. at least that is the plan. Can’t wait for some new ideas. Thanks ahead of time
Throw pillows for the grandparents. I buy plain pillows, and make pillow cases with the grandkids hand prints cut out in fabric of their choice and sew on with their ages, weight and the year on them!
How wonderful! Can’t wait to see your gifts for bath and beauty! 🙂 The past several years we have been making the move toward more “handmade holidays” and each year gets met with more and more success (that first year or so we weren’t sure what people would say, lol). This year I’ll be making each of my friends a set of two snowflake-shaped dishcloths with cotton yarn. DD has also requested all kinds of yarn goodness for presents. Making aprons and other fabric goodies too!
