Christmas Gifts in the Works





Handmade and carefully purchased gifts are beginning to stack up under the little tree and in the living room awaiting wrapping. This year gift tags are crafted from bits of wrapping paper cut or punched from the wrapping paper and glued to card stock. Ribbons are yarn, jute, grossgrain and cord. Papers are printed holiday wrap, red and brown kraft paper, colors are varied and bright with very little red or green in sight. Gifts are simple and useful small treasures chosen just for each person's likes and needs. Sewing machine has been out and used for one entire night, scissors have trimmed, papers and trims cut. A few samples of what have been in the works around here follow.
