Christmas crafts

[katyjane]

Hi everyone

As we all know Christmas is creeping up on us again - I just wondered if anyone on here is creative/into craft-making. As I would like to do my own presents this year, what with money etc.

Just wondered if anyone had any ideas?

Thanks

Take a look at my blanket thread, also are there any crafts etc you allready know how to do? If I know your skill levels it is easier to make suitable suggestions.

I make all my own cards to :)

Few ideas for things to make ummmm Soaps, candles, plain old picture frames can be decorated with amything to jazz them up and make them personal.

I love hand made things as they are unique

I am making scarves for all the kids this year, all my own cards, haven't however decided what else to do.

I make cards as well, had a good today and managed to make a few more

a friend has suggested a few things but a bit more children orientated - but unfortunately I don't have children to buy/make for - other than my OH god daughter.

Some of the suggestions were snowman soup - put a sachet of hot chocolate, marshmallows and a candy cane in a bag or mug with a little poem.

I'm looking into the soups and candles ideas for the older ones!!

I'm just a bit stuck on what to do for the male side of the family? :confused:
