Can you believe how fast this year has zipped by? I can't....and like many of you I'm trying to get all of my holiday gifts together. We just finished with Halloween, getting ready for Thanksgiving and before you know it, here it is.....Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanza. I'm constantly working on something, but this time of year my hands are going non-stop. With the economy such as it is, hand crafted gifts are great and most everyone enjoys receiving them. With all the fun project ideas we have available, there should be something there for everyone. It's also a perfect time to give back to your community by donating afghans, blankets, scarves, hats, and more to homeless shelters, hospitals and our troops overseas.
Check out our Quick links for fun projects to make for "The 12 weeks of Christmas", or the "Charities link". If you haven't already found us on facebook, join the fan club and all the fun:
