My Crafty Christmas Gifts!

I've been waiting to post on this because I didn't want to ruin Christmas gift surprises, but since it is over now and the gifts have been given.. it is time to show off what I've been working on!!!! It took me a long while and about 4 sew days/nights with my girlfriends, but it was ALL worth it when my sisters and mom opened these up...
:) I made us all aprons! Without a pattern, just wipped em out! HA! Yeah right I wish it was that easy, it took me a lot longer than a wip! ;) They also got this....
A fun project I did at my enrichment super saturday! I made a cute "Mitch Soup" recipe card for it and also added in a few of my favorite recipes... just printed them out on 4x6 photos at costco and they were the perfect size for this stand! I also made for Seth's family too! They all loved them!

I also put together these what I call "Christ Blocks", I made with some friends and they made awesome gifts for friends and family! Seth helped cut and sand the wood for me and then I painted, sanded and modge-podged away and then added some handles!


I also made these coasters for my parents(they were another fun project from the enrichment Super Saturday)one for each of their grandchildren!

I LOVE BEING CRAFTY!!!! Thanks to those who lend me their ideas and inspirations!
