The month of December is a great time to get your craft on. And while you get your craft on, why not make a few quick and easy gifts for your friends and family? Most all of these crafty items can be made even with your kiddos around and they may want to help a bit too!!
Many times making a few crafty gifts will also save you quite a few dollars. These gifts also tend to mean more years down the road. I still have the stocking my grandma made me when I was about 15 months. It is tattered and not as spiffy as it once was, but so well loved and has such means as she passed away when I was 12.
Here is a list of crafty goodness. Some are links to Pinterest finds!!
- Jamberry Jar of Goodies…
I am going to be giving a Jamicure in a Jar away at a couple of Christmas Gatherings.
You will need some hand cream, Jamberry application Kit, Jamberry nail Wraps, and I am making a sugar scrub and a jar with fabric for the lid.
For a simpler set, you could get the Jamberry Holiday Gift Set.
- Take a sketch book and decorate the covers with fabric, and or scrapbooking paper, then write a sentiment on the first page. Now you have a very special customized journal for someone.

mother, christian, wife, woman, child of God. It is about my life as a farmer’s wife, as a cook, a baker, a nurse, a teacher, a woodworker, a housekeeper, a farmer (yep, I drive tractors, pick up hay bales, and other farm duties), a gardener. So, what you read here, is me, as a transparent sometimes hot headed, passionate, and opinionated person.
Such a great list but my favorite is the manicure set. I know my niece loves jamberry nails and would appreciate this!
