From the July archives, Part 1


Graphic from The Old Design Shop
 I thought it would be fun to take a little trip (or two) through the July archives here at my Christmas kitchen, in the years before I began doing Christmas in July.  Here are a few of my finds:

Brainstorming Christmas gift ideas has some very nifty gift-giving ideas which I brainstormed with friends on a crafting forum.  They combine hand-crafted gifts with purchased items for some very gift-worthy ideas.

Then there's a quote concerning Christmas crafting as stress relief any time of year.  I knew there was a reason I'd been keeping a small tote of Christmas craft items close at hand! 

Lastly for today, I'll share the Christmas Tea Wallet which I made as a gift for a friend. 

Pretty sure I've shared this elsewhere on the blog, but it's worth repeating for those who haven't seen it.  It's a fun, easy, and adaptable idea that would make a wonderful little gift or stocking stuffer.

Have fun browsing in the archives .. another archive post will be coming soon!

    I love Christmas crafting as stress relief. I really need to cut strips for the Scandinavian stars and have them handy in a basket.

    Hello Mrs. T,
    I found your blog "accidentally" and was really happy to find a Christmas blog that is active all the year round. Your blog list looks very interesting as well.
    Greetings and blessings from Finland!
