30 Gifts in 30 Days

by Summer M.

It’s the final countdown to Christmas, are you nervous yet? I know many people are running around trying to figure out what they are going to give to everyone on their lists. Choosing the perfect gift can be stressful, time consuming, and eat up a budget. But crafty moms have an advantage over all the holiday fuss! If you can sew, paint, knit, cook, or even just glue you can create special one of a kind gifts that are sure to be huge hits. No really, I promise!

Of course there is still the problem of finding great crafty gift ideas to make. I’ve decided that I’m going to try to help with that. All during the month of November I will post a different gift idea. Every day there will be a new creative gift that you can make yourself. From beginners to the experienced I will have ideas for everyone. You can stop back in here all during the month of Novembr to see what I’m sharing each day. You can also look in the 30 Gifts category to see just the daily posts with gift ideas.

I can’t wait to pull out the ton of creative gifts ideas I’ve got saved away in books and on the computer. And I’m sure I’m not the only one. If you have a great gift idea for creative moms I hope you’ll share it. If you write about gift ideas in your own blog let me know and I will put up a link to it. I hop everyone gets into the holiday spirit with this and shares some great ideas. No matter how big or small, complicated or easy, detailed or plain there is sure to be a great gift idea that anyone can make. And that will help check off another name on the gift list this year.

About Creative Mom Cafe

Creative Mom Cafe is the place to come and try your hand at something you thought you could never do or to get an idea you would never have had on your own. Most of the ideas I bring to 'the Cafe' are simple and for the creativity-challenged but every now and then I will throw in a doozie for those of you who are waiting for it. Every month will have a theme and all ideas that month will tie in to that theme. It may be fun recipes for kids, a scrapbooking idea, an organizational tip or anything else that is in my head that month. I invite you to send your photos of projects you have done and at the end of the month I will highlight one or two "fan" projects! Thanks, stop in the Cafe as often as you can!
