A Very Crafty Christmas

As I mentioned in my last post, we celebrated our immediate family Christmas on January 5. In addition to the knitted socks I gave to my 3-year old niece, there were a few other creative and crafty gifts exchanged.


My mom let the grandkids pick out a flannel of their choice and she made them all p.j.s My niece chose a lavender floral, my 4-year old nephew a black fleece with motorcycles, and my little guy a black fleece with flaming guitars-rad! The kids loved their jammies and changed into them right away.




Hubby made my mom a great purse made out of Duct Tape. He had first made our little guy a cool duct tape wallet and she mentioned that she'd love a purse. He found a handy tutorial for making the purse here. She was tickled!


Finally, from my sis I received a cute little felted handbag. The pattern for the felted clutch was from One Skein by Leigh Radford and she knitted it up in a gray wool with black crytal beads decorating the outside. Darling!

What a very crafty Christmas!
