a few ideas

thank you for your comments and suggestions yesterday!
i really appreciate it

i scoured my "make it" pinterest board 

for my favorite ideas yesterday and here's where i'm at

i love this idea to monogram basic totes using a doily for girls/women

and maybe these chalkboard composition notebooks for nephews?

there is still the option of making and personalizing these pencil pouches

or i could make everyone personalized ornaments

have you heard of the caravanshoppe?

you buy the digital download and can use it as many times as you want

(for personal use only, of course)

i just won $14 credit there from a blog giveaway so i may go that route, too

they have lots of cute ideas like these olliblocks

i made my first gift yesterday

an infinity scarf using some remnant fabric from joanns

it was really easy so maybe that'll be a good gift for the ladies in our lives

if you want to make one and not wing it

here's a tutorial to use 

so that's where i'm at

as far as handmade Christmas gifts

although this may all change after my trip to hobby lobby later today

but maybe these ideas will help some of you?
