Gettin' Crafty With It

I think I have the photo problem fixed, at least for now.  Here is what I have been working on lately...Christmas crafts for gifts:

It is a Christmas caroler filled with candies up into his little stocking hat.  Not too bad...I bought 1/2 yard of red t-shirt knit and made 16 little caps.  Used 6 bags of candies that were on sale and the paper was all pretty scrap pieces of scrap booking stuff.  TP , paper towel and wrapping paper rolls were recycled trash.

The little fabric tissue holder (bottom left) and the keyring chapstick cozy were from leftover placemats I bought on clearance.  I paid 78 cetns for 4 D rings at WalMart and 99 cents for the snap clip (just for fun on this one) so the chapstick keeper clips to keyrings or purses or in the car.  The little moose is a wrapped package of minty gum.  See the details f that below.

I bought two packages of Eclipse gum at Costco and wrapped the individual gum sleeves in Christmas paper and then glued them into a scrap of cardstock and added stickers and a sticky back velro button to keep it closed.  Simple.  I did a bunch of these--in all different colors and design.  Easy-peasy.

Here is another fabric option on the tissue cover and the chaptsick keeper--without the clip.  Super easy and super inexpensive this year! 

This is what I have been making in my little Santa's workshop.  What are you up to?  I could use the good ideas for next year!
