'Tis The Season Thursday *Giveaway*

Steph from Bargain Fun was the winner of the Dakota Thunder necklace from last week.

This week I have some handmade gifts to share with you.

I have been busy at my sewing machine for 3 days.  (My family has been eating on the floor in the living room because my projects took over the kitchen table.)

First on the list are some really fun couture bean bags I made for Meadow.

I used various colors of felt and fabric to create these charming little toys.  They are filled with dried kidney beans.

Second here are some reusable shopping bags I made for some very special ladies I know. 

The pattern I used was really quite simple and can be found at Morsbags. 
(Stay tuned for a tutorial soon on how to monogram using freezer paper and fabric paint.)

Third is a bible book bag I made for my niece.

I used a tutorial from Crystal's Craft Spot and some figuring of my own to come up with this sweet creation.  Can you believe it's made from a place mat?

I hope these little goodies spark some ideas!
Link up your holiday posts below.  Anything from recipes to decor, gifts to devotionals.  I look forward to reading about your family's traditions.
  
Now let me introduce you to Heather from novaleigh.
Heather designs and creates gorgeous jewelery.
Quote from Heather: "I definitely like making things more than I like using them when they're finished."

Lucky for all of you!  Novaleigh is an etsy shop full of everyday jewelery pieces to mix and match with your favorite outfits.  I highly reccomend checking out the $5 earring selection.
