I'm back! Christmas Gift Ideas, post #1
I finished my Master's degree in October! This means I can have a bloggy life again! I'm hoping to resurrect both my blogs in the next few weeks. Its been a busy 2 years and we've had a lot of changes in our life. More to come!
Meanwhile.....Christmas is on my mind! I'm looking back at my pins on Pinterest and starting to put together ideas. I want to post a few of my favorites here! (actually......the truth is.....if I don't post them, I will forget them! sad, but true).
Sun Scholars has an awesome post on homemade gifts for kids - find it HERE. Here are some ones to plan to do for sure!
1. Reading pillow pattern
It looks like the pattern was for sale on Etsy - I don't see it there anymore but I messaged the seller. I'll keep you posted! Still love it!
Could probably modify it for use with an E-Reader as well.
2. Pillow Mattress Tutorial - Love this one! We travel for sports so much, I NEED to do this one!

 4. A Hopscotch mat  5. Homemade bath soap crayons  6. Silk Wings - a must do for my kiddos  7. Fabric Scrap Paper Doll Kit  8. Bugsy Tic-Tac-Toe  9. Angry Birds Toss Game  10. Girly Spa Kits  11. Friendship Bracelet Kits  12. Art Kit  13. Movie Party Kit in a Bottle  14. Cookie Decorating  15. Super Hero Fort Kit - thinking about this one for my nephew's little boy!  16. Take along barn or dollhouse (or tree fort, or dance studio - lots of possibilities) - I have made this one before!  17. No Sew Fishing Set - great use for thrift store socks!  18.
