A Giving Christmas with Stitched By Crystal

Hi there! I am Crystal, you can usually find me over at Stitched by Crystal, but I am thrilled to be here today joining in on the A Giving Christmas series and sharing a fun craft your kids can make and give! 

In our family, we give a lot of Christmas ornaments.  Everyone in the family gets a new ornament to add to the tree each year.  So I thought it would be fun to have my kids get in the giving spirit by making ornaments to give to others.  My kids are young, 2 and 4, so I needed something toddler friendly, something without a lot of cutting and sewing involved.  These little sock snowmen certainly fit the bill! And they were fun to make together, they are so easy even my youngest could join in!

A Giving Christmas with Handmade Boy

Hi everybody! I'm Kelly from Handmade Boy and I'm here to share how my daughters and I made quick and EASY scarves for their friends this Christmas.

And I admit, they kept a couple for themselves, also. Hey, when they are this easy, why not make one for yourself?! You'll have extra yarn anyway.

A Giving Christmas with Amanda Rose

Hi everyone I'm Amanda from AmandaRose I'm so excited to be here today to show you a fun super easy and very fast giving gift. A Giving Christmas should be every year and be like a week long just so you can give to as many people as possible and hope you touched at least one soul :o). Today I'm going to show you all a cute little heart that can be made up so many different ways. This one I sewed on the sewing machine but I have a couple cut out that me and my girls (7 & 5) will be hand sewing with children's needles (or knit needles). This is such an easy fast sew you could whip out a handful in a day and a heart means so much that it's a great little gift for everyone, all ages all genders so I hope you enjoy!

Paisley's Birthday

Time has been going by far too fast and I can't believe this little chicka-roo is 5 years old already. 

Paisley is very sweet and loving but do not be fooled by the sweet little face. She acts very shy, but once she's comfortable with you, she is a wild-child.

I hope everyone had a wonderful and fantastic Holiday weekend!
