Our 10 days of Christmas ideas

designer: Kim Holmes

We have lots of ideas to share with all of you today to make

some quick and easy gifts for family and friends without

the stress of holiday shopping!

And.....

even a few decorations you can do with the kids

when they are out of school next week!

designer: Rita Barakat

Rita made this adorable wall-hanging from our winter

papers and we thought it was such a cute idea to hang the chipboard

embellishments from the bottom and also the way she used

all the ribbons on the handle to hang it up!

This is one adorable idea to give to someone as

a gift that they can use also after the holidays

as a beautiful decoration for their home.

Lots of great details!!

designer: Alicia Barry

You can hand cut all your own flowers so that they

match perfectly with your project.

Guest designer: Sarah Mullanix

Sarah made this cute decorative star with our

glitter cardstock. She added some ribbons and

hand cut the tiny little bead like decore from our

paper and for a finishing touch added a second star with

tiny little music notes.

designer: Julie Walton


You can create this banner easy by just cutting out the banner shape

in our glittery papers and then adding netting, tiny paper ornaments

and letters that say BELIEVE

and popping it up with dots. She finished it off

by stringing a row of pearls through the whole thing and

adding more pretty flowers and ribbon at the ends.

designer: Petra Offrell

You can make this fun star garland by cutting up lots of

stars in different colors and patterns (like below)

and sewing 2 of them together about 2"apart and then

gently folding them open. This would be super cute to do

as a garland on your Christmas tree too!

designer: Katarina Damm

Simple gifts for friends and family can be made

with all kinds of things laying around the house.

You can create beautiful decorated bags to give gifts in

or put something homemade in from your family.

This is a great idea for someone who uses lots paper pads.

It's quick and easy and you can make them in lots of patterns.

You simply measure the top of a plastic photo holder and

make a decorated piece to fit inside like the pink one.

Tie lots of fun ribbons and embellishments on the top

and add a coordinating notepad. The pen you can buy

and add coordinating paper inside of it!

Guest Designer: Sarah Mullanix

We also created lots of handmade tags to use

for all the gifts you are giving or even bag up

a few and give them as a gift for someone!

designer: Petra Offrell

Don't you love the idea of all this silver and the

cool blues of our winter papers. Adding lots

of fun trims, netting and lace can really make

the tags look super cute!

If you want to give a little something special

you can decorate a Special Candy with lots of

papers and embellishments

or even make a cute little pyramid box

and put some special treats inside the bottom

with a special message on the top!

designer: Teresa Horner

designer: Teresa Horner

You can make fun purse bags to put a set of

cards in or give special treats you made or even

a special gift that will fit snugly inside!

Thanks to all of you who stopped by!

Have a great weekend and hope you

create something fun!!
