Christmas Crafting

Now that the gifts have been given, I can show you what I created in the two-day frenzy otherwise known as “Christmas preparation.”  Once grading was finished, I had two days before leaving for home to make, wrap, and send. I will NOT do that again. At any rate.

For my sister:

For my dad, the wine lover/cook, I made a trivet.  I knew he’d scan the corks to see which wineries he recognized:

And for the grandparents, a wreath (picture isn’t great, sorry):

Maybe I’ll start now for next Christmas, LOL.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

    Homemade gifts are the BESTEST! I LOVE all of them, but the trivet is especially cool!
