Friday December 4th 4:00pm-10pm
Saturday December 5th 1:00pm-4:00pm
Sunday December 6th 10:00am-4:00pm
You can choose what day and time works best for you and come as you wish. If you would like an estimate of how long your projects may take, just let me know what you would like to do and I can give you an idea!
It's that time of year again. Time for my annual Christmas Gift Making Event! This is my most popular class of the year. Probably because there are close to 20 different projects to choose from all for under $12!!!! So get your list of people you need to give gifts to, and start checking out all the great handmade projects I have for you this year! If you want to view a slideshow of all of the items follow this link. This slideshow contains close up pictures and more detail.

Or scroll through all of the pictures with descriptions right here.
Here is how this event works. Check out all of the different projects I am offering this year. FIgure out exactly what you would like to make and how many of each item and let me know. You don't have to make everything offered, you can make 10 of each thing offered, this class is up to you and what your gift giving needs are. All projects that use designer series paper *may* not use that actual pattern from the pack for very project. I will do my best to use the exact paper pettern in each project, but I need to use the entire pack of paper. The good news is you have 12 choices all in the same color scheme, maybe there is a pattern of paper you like better than what I chose!
You need to RSVP for this class no later than Sunday November 29th. If you RSVP with your payment by Wednesday November 25th, you will get a 10% discount on your total purchase. I must have your payment by the 25th in order to get the discount!
When you come to the event all of your supplies will be cut and ready for you to assemble. You do any stamping and assembly but all the hard work is done for you! Just come and have fun!
The first 2 projects are for those of you who love to give gifts from your kitchen!

Mini Loaf Bread Boxes.


4 different colors and designs to choose from. This box is the perfect size to hold individual mini bread loaves. This would be a great way to give an already homemade gift. Cost is $3 per box.






Mini Treat Boxes

Another gift packaging project for those of you who like to make your own handmade treats. this box is perfect size to give sugar coated nuts, circle pretzels with chocolate in the center, handmade peanut brittle or peppermint bark, or whateven yummy treats you like to make for the holidays! Cost is $3 per box. (treats pictured aren't included, just for show)


Gift Card Holders

Who doesn't give gift cards?? We all love to give and receive gift cards...but sometimes it may feel a little too impersonal. So why not put a little extra effort into your gift cards this year with these adorable gift card holders. I have to admit these are my favorite projects this year! Each one fold open and has a place to insert your gift card, and room to write in a greeting. Why use the cheesy ones at the store when you can give something your recipient will keep long after the gift card is gone! Cost is $4 per character.


Ornaments and matching boxes

Everything about this project is handmade! From the super sparkly ornament all the way down to the hand made box with lid! I am sure you all have made ornaments before, but now you can coordinate by making a matching box too! 4 different color choices to choose from. Cost is $8 each. These boxes were inspired by Monica Weaver.

Matching Note pad, pen and folder set

Here is a great gift for coworkers or teachers. Who couldn't use another place to keep notes? And when it is this cute, who can resist? This project includes the matching folder which holds a notebook with matching topper and a pen tht matches the set as well. You can customize the outside with a name if you would like! Cost is $7 . I only have 11 of these available. First come first serve on this particular project.



Hot Cocoa Mug

Create this adorable hand made mug to hold some yummy treats. Cost for just the mug is $4. Or for $9 you can make the mug and fill it with HOMEMADE hot cocoa mix (it's super yummy we make it every year!) marshmallows and mini candy canes. A complete gift all for only $9! Pattern by Lynn Putt.

Stationary and Chocolate Sets

This is adorable gift set great for anyone on your list. Set includes 4 3 X 3 cards with matching envelopes (perfect for tags and little thank you notes) and 3 matching chocolates (perfect for eating the day you get them!) 4 color options to choose from, 2 Christmas colored and 2 any day styles (stock up now for Mother's Day and upcoming Birthdays!) You can't tell from the photo but the box is handmade and has a clear acetate cover to keep everything nice and secure. Boxes were inspired by Becky Roberts.
Cost is $8 each








Milk Carton Containers

The last project being offered this year is the milk carton container box. You create 4 milk cartons that have a secret trap door on the bottom so they don't have to be taken apart in order to enjoy the goodies you put inside. You also create the box that holds all of them. These are great to fill with those goodies from your kitchen, or large enough to hold a gift card, or make a bath set, put bath salt in one, a mini shower gel in another, little bath oil balls in another, and how about chocolate in the last one? Or use your imagination to fill these containers and make the perfect gift! Cost is $12 each, 2 color choices
