I love to to put a handmade touch on my holidays. Whether it's creating decorations or gifts, I'm happy just to be making something (now I know why my Grandmother always said busy hands make happy hearts). Here are just some of the things resulting from our handmade Christmas:
A simple swag wreath for our front door (made from the branches we cut off the bottom of our Christmas tree)
NOEL -cut letters from a sheet of foam, covered them with moss, berries and tiny pine cones
Not really handmade, just a good idea. Plant paperwhite bulbs indoors, cover the soil with tiny glass balls
Make a simple pine cone tree by covering a tall foam cone with moss and mini pine cones

My child's favorite: a twig star to top our tree
Lots of handmade gifts this year!
A knit hat and scarf and a baby blanket that I'm still feverishly working on
Matching embellished Mom and Baby tees 
I hope you can find time to put a little handmade touch on your holidays. Sometimes it's the simplest things that bring the greatest joy.
