Christmas Time!

I LOVE Christmas. It's definitely my favorite holiday. I've never really been into Halloween and Easter is okay, but Christmas is the bees knees.

There have been some really, really great Christmas crafts around the blogging world lately. Please allow me to share them with you? And then after you're finished with finals and before you start playing with all of your new presents you've found under your Christmas tree, work on some of these.

Make an easy tree!

Rachel, over at Hounds in the Kitchen, created this tree because she and her family were sick of their big ol' Christmas tree drying out by the time Christmas actually rolled around. What a great idea! And really, you could even have this in addition to a "real" tree.

There are TONS of Christmas ideas happening over at Sweet Paul. Well, so far, there's only two - but every day he is posting a new Christmas project. So far, we have homemade glittery Christmas cards and roasted chestnuts.


Elise at enJOY it as a great post about creating a Christmas-ey notebook/scrapbook. I love the homemade details of it. Also, I am ridiculously envious of her handwriting. My penmanship is HORRIBLE.


Craft Magazine has some GREAT projects already posted and there will only be more. So far, I am loving these ribbon cards and DIY holiday wreathes.




Finally, the Purl Bee has two projects that just...make me want to drop what I'm doing, create a huge family, and then make these monogrammed Dreidel bags and customized stockings. Kind of. Not really.

But kind of.


Stay tuned for more Christmas projects in the future!
