Homemade Gifts 2017

I didn't make a lot of homemade gifts for Christmas this year, but I did make a few. 

I made 15 of these Christmas Burlap Bags from my Super Saturday activity for my family gift. I put a cinnamon pinecone in each one.


I made trees bags for all the ones I was giving away, but I made a few bags for our decorations while I was at it and did one snowflake to go with my trees.


I wrapped them in these cute bags that were 33 cents from Walmart and made personalized tags from Our Best Bites.


The only other homemade gift I made was a Five Little Monkeys finger puppet set for Jared and Cailey's daughter, Madison (and all their future kids). I hand sewed the monkeys and the crocodile on my many flights on my Italy/Greece trip and then I sewed a quick drawstring bag to put them in when I got home. I have now made this set for all of our siblings other than Marti. When she gets married and has kids, I'll make a set for her and then I'll retire from the monkey finger puppet business! 😂 The template is no longer available online, so when I made this set I had to trace the set we have to make my own template.


I need to go back and blog about January and February 2017, but other than those months, I think this is the end of 2017 posts!
