Lemon Mint Sugar Scrub

 

This recipe is so versatille. You can use different oils and scents to create the perfect custom scrub.

 

 

 

Candy Cane Soap

 

This was my first attempt at bar soap, and it was so fun! With a few simple ingredients you'll be on your way to a heavenly smelling homemade gift.

 

 

Chocolate Covered Danish Cookies

These are a wonderful semi-homemade gift. I buy the big tins of cookies as well as the big bars of Ghiradelli melting chocolate at Sam's Club. Such a time saver! Then you add any extra topping you'd like. Nuts, peppermints, etc.

 

 

Acid Etched Gift Jars

Acid etching isn't hard to do. Especially if you have a cricut or silhouette cutting machine. Fill with treats or school supplies for the perfect teacher's gift.

 

 

The Wasp Bag

 

I just love this purse and have made it many times in several sizes. For myself, and as gifts for my mother and mother-in-law. I also have several other purse tutorials. So keep scrolling!

 

 

Buttercup Bag

 

This little bag is smaller than the wasp bag. You'll want to make several in different colors!

 

 

 

 

 

Rosette Handbag

 

I made this for my mother a couple of years ago after she wore out the handbag I made her before that. She loved it and I think it is one of the prettiest fabric combos that I have used.

 

 

Handbag Tutorial

 

Here is a basic handbag tutorial. Perfect for a beginning sewing project. The rosette hand bag is just a variation off of this basic technique. There is also a tutorial for a cosmetic bag that you could make to put inside one of these hand bags!

 

 

Messenger Bag

 

I used this as a diaper bag, but could be used as a church bag, or every day hand bag too.

 

 

Personalized Soap

 

This was a fun project and I've made these as gifts as well as for myself.

 

 

 

The Girl's Survival Kit

 

Who wouldn't love one of these? Chocolate and nail polish? Sounds like the perfect night.

 

 

Silver Leaf Transparency Photos

 

Turn any photo into a beautiful gift.

 

 

 

Photo Collage Clock

 

This clock was so easy to make! You can create a collage on your computer at home and have Costco print it out for a few bucks.
