I love to give handmade gifts, I mean I am a crafter, and while I don’t always manage it, last Christmas I was able to gift some made with love items to a few special people.

I always have a long list of potential handmade gifts laid out by October, but by the time December rolls around, I realise I have been too ambitious! Maybe this year I’ll start in September instead. But moving on……
I gifted leather bookmarks and an eyeglass case to my brother-in-law
My sister got a canvas and leather backpack, with hand printed pocket. You can make this yourself with the class at CreativeBug
My son got a new knitted winter hat. This was my first time doing colour work and I was quite proud!

I also made him a cute monster pouch for his earbuds.

What handmade gifts did you give this year?
