I am making a lot of my gifts this year. The sucky economy, and an ever growing circle of peeps that I want to gift to, has led me to come up with a bunch of plans for making many of my gifts this year. Like these quick and easy bookmarks I made the other day. I bought some stamps at the craft store (40% off, thank you) and some nifty silver cardstock. I added some baker’s twine for a tassel and I think I ended up with some fun stocking stuffer gifties.
thanks! they were beyond simple too. the silver paper really made them though. it makes them a little bit **fancy**.
those are adorable and so thoughtful. And useful!!
I’m getting extra crafty as well! My mother-in-law pawned an entire roll of sturdy kraft paper off on me, and it’s perfect for stamping and creating gift tags! I’ve been using a round scalloped punch & stamps, along with hemp twine for a natural-y, woodsy feel:)
I love the bookmarks–they really are so darn useful (esp if someone’s like me & reads five books at once!)
Oh awesome! I love that idea.
