Over the weekend I finished up my Christmas list. Yes, this 29 year old still makes a Christmas list. It’s not that I am über greedy, it’s just that I love gift giving and I want everyone in my family to give and receive good gifts. I think this is best accomplished if everyone shares a gift list of items they actually want/need. I would rather get an item that costs $10 that I really love than a $50 item that is only mediocre.
However, one thing about my Christmas list was very different this year. It’s still mostly clothes and other pretty things, but it’s the source of these items that has changed. My family doesn’t need to fight the crowds at the mall to get me something I will love. No. They only need to hop online because over half of my wish list items can be found on Etsy. I guess I’m really a true blogger now…
Here are some of my favorite handmade items this Christmas season…
And this doesn’t really count, because I already bought these… but to kick off the Christmas season I ordered our Christmas cards from Naptime Diaries. And if you haven’t met Jessi, please head to her blog. Her love for Jesus and her family inspires me daily.
Last day to enter the Christmas giveaway friends!
