Christmas

is coming, the goose is getting fat….  {hee-hee}.  I thought I would share 25 Fabulous Handmade Gift Ideas that are fun and affordable. 

While thousands of people are out doing their holiday shopping, I’m here in the comforts of my own home wrapping up my holiday decorating –and working on shop orders. 

I’m one of those traditionalists who waits until the day after Thanksgiving to decorate; however, it usually takes a couple of days.  I get distracted very easily (hee-hee). 

Anywho, I enjoy making handmade gifts.  So if you’re on a budget this year and want to add a little TLC to your gift giving — check out these fabulous 25 handmade gift ideas!

From accessories to decorative pieces, these gift ideas are sure to inspire!
