The 12 days of Christmas Part 1




Many of you may remember that last Christmas I made the 12 days of Christmas gift bags for my kids and nieces.
I filled them with things I knew were useful. They seemed very delighted by this so throughout the year I am going to make things to fill them so that in December I am not swamped with things to buy or make.
This month I am filling my nieces bags with coloring supplies I picked up after the holiday sale.
What about you dear reader? Have you started making some ideas or gifts for Christmas?

I have the same question as Kathie, great idea for sure. I always try to make at least one project each month so I don't get too overwhelmed .

I'm curious about Kathie's question also! Your bags are so precious and no.....I haven't started to even think about Christmas for next year! Thanks for sharing.

Started? NOt so much, I'll probably procrastinate until a few months before Christmas and then get busy. Way to go on getting going!

Barb said...

Wow, that is a lot of work but fantastic!!

I haven't started, but next year I'm going to be doing my married daughter's stocking, so I intend to pick things up all year to fill it. And make some of them as well.
