I’m missing the holidays, even if they DID drive me mad. I decided to make most of my Christmas gifts, and my hands were busy all the time. Sometimes, I’d even fall asleep with bits of thread and cloth in my hair. But all in all, I really DO love making gifts for friends and family, no matter how chaotic it all gets.
I’m sitting here thinking about all the lavender sachets I made for friends (so easy because I used precut charm packs from Moda):


And the all tha packaging fun as I made this version of Bake It Pretty’s Russian Friendship Tea (lemonade+orange drink+instant tea=yum!):


After all that craftmadness, I’m kind of itching to make something again, and soon. Oh, wait. Isn’t Valentine’s coming up?
