Christmas Clothespins
6 comments
I love the simplicity of this craft—all you need is glue, paper, and clothespins! They are cute with just the paper, and even cuter when you add tiny appliqués. Make several for yourself, or give them away as gifts.

Holly Jolly Gift Card Holder

Make giving a gift card memorable with a handmade (and reusable) felt envelope. I used red and white felt and thread with two iconic Christmas images—a tree and a present (which is a button). The tree is sewn onto the front of the envelope, but you can sew any other shape you like or none at all. You can also use paint and stencils/stamps to create your own design. Try personalizing it by adding the recipient’s name or by using his/her favorite colors. Changing the colors will also make it appropriate for any occasion (birthday, baby shower, etc.). This envelope can be used again and again or even hung on the Christmas tree as a keepsake.
