The last few years our family has made gifts for each other for Christmas. Here are a few of this year’s offerings.
Homemade snowglobes from Newt and I:

(And yes, I made the Wonder Woman one for myself. I couldn’t resist.)
Snow globe instructions here.
From me to Newt:

Nope, not Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets…

…just the chamber…

…and some secret treats to keep in it.
Hollow book instructions here.
And another Harry Potter theme gift:

I was inspired by the handmade spiral notebooks in Amanda Soule‘s Handmade Home. I bought a couple of used paperbacks and cut off the covers. Then I cut blank paper to fit and had them spiral bound at our local copy shop. So easy, but unique and fun.
Never one to procrastinate, W is in the garage right now working on his gifts to us.
I can’t wait until tomorrow!







I absolutely LOVE these! Next year you need to post this in November so we can do them too!
