My Book club gifts

JulesinParadise · Mon Dec 05, 2011 4:15 pm

Every year for our Dec. meeting, I have promised myself I'd make something for the girls. Every year (4) I have failed. Several (not all) bring a little something for everyone...a card, a pin, a sachet. This year is the year. This is what I am making...no two will be alike and I am going to put the GOOD peppermint sticks in them , not the ones we gave each other as kids.

So what gifts are you making? Here are my first 3.

Each takes about 30-45 min. are are no sew using a variety of Helmar's adhesives and lots of my scraps.

Those are gorgeous Jules!!!

I altered a drink carrier for my Dad so he can hold packets of seeds and anything else that is small and light. He loves to garden!

I am going to make everyone a bookmark. I've made two. Need 4 more.

Those are so cute!

These have been on my list of things to do for the last couple of weeks - I hope to get my act together enough to make Cardinals for teachers, & coworkers.

Wow! Jules, those are gorgeous!

Flasher · Mon Dec 05, 2011 11:09 pm

Those are very pretty!

I make nothing in the way of gifts for family or friends. Unfortunately, my family and my friends, (except for my kids and hubby) have no desire to receive anything that is hand made. I found that out the hard way a few years ago. (Even my son's Sunday School teacher complained about how she get so much "crafty" stuff that she can't use.)

Bah Humbug to the people who don't appreciate and love homemade gifts!
I saw these stockings on Jules' blog. SO so pretty!
