HOMEMADE GIFT IDEAS

Charlotte Cannon

This year I made a home DVD with music and pictures of my kids and family over the past year. I am sending it to all my family who lives out of state. This is an excellent way for them to watch an enjoyable movie, and catch up on photos of the family. Cost is 8 dollars for burnable DVD's and maybe an hour or two of time.

HOMEMADE GIFTS IDEA....

Homemade ornaments are so cute!

They are a perfect way to let your kid's imaginations run wild!

One year I bought clear glass ornaments. I let my boys swirl different colors of paint inside, then when they were dry, I used white paint to put their handprint on the outside. Then I put their names and the year on them. Grandparents loved them!!
