Holiday Gift Ideas!

Each year seems to go faster and faster, which is sometimes good, but sometimes I just want it to slow down a little. Summer is almost over, school is starting, and our schedules fill up before we know it! But we still have some time before the holidays to make some great gifts. 

Today I'm sharing some of my favorite projects that I've made over the years. They all make wonderful gifts for family and friends, or yourself!

Here are a few ways to "wrap" Christmas:

Another use for my cake pedestal.

Have to decorate the dining room too!

I hope this has inspired you to start working on some fun holiday projects! They don't have to be holiday themed. Here are a couple of project ideas that can be left out all year!

So many ideas!!! Get busy!

Happy Creating,
