Thrifty, Crafty Christmas

Tis the season! Mike and I have already started our Christmas shopping. Typically, I like to be about 80% DONE by Thanksgiving. Well... probably not this year because I intend on making most of our gifts! I'm super excited about doing this because not only will our recipients appreciate my hard work and craftiness (hopefully), but I'll also get to hunt for the perfect gift to MAKE. This will be a huge challenge to my creative abilities, but if you know me, you know that I am totally up for that challenge!! Because do have two kiddos to wrangle on the weekends and already have a tight schedule in the evenings, not all gifts given this year will be homemade, BUT I do hope that each recipient will receive at least one! I also hope to photograph my progress and post-date blogs so you can see everything AFTER I've given my gifts since a lot of my recipients read my blog... sorry, no peeking! I'm super excited to do this though so stay tuned!
