With the amount of people we buy for at Christmas time I have to be creative in order to stay with in budget and still give. 8 brothers and sisters, in-laws and countless nieces and nephews (30 plus at last count) all ranging in ages, teachers, friends… I have decided to make as many gifts as I can. I will put them all in one category called Handmade Holidays for easy reference. They will all be simple and inexpensive, with four kids to keep after I need to start now! Girly Handbag

That handbag is gorgeous! Your work is awesome. If you are making something for everyone, you most certainly will have your hands full, but they will truly appreciate them.

Very cute bag! I totally understand you.....I have quite a few gifts to give out too. I'm a little late for making gifts for everyone, so I'll make as many as I can given the time frame. But next year, I'll make all my gifts. I think the gifts become even more special when they're handmade.
Hugs,
Lory
