OK, this is the last one, I promise. But here are the rest of the handmade gifts I managed to make for this Christmas (but couldn't share until now b/c I didn't want to ruin the surprise!).
A couple months back, I found this huge back of yarn at SCRAP, our local art supply re-use store for $4! What a steal!!
I turned it into a hat and mittens for Finn, and I still have A LOT of yarn left!
I also made Finn a few pairs of pants (the robot fabric is flannel and really snuggly)
I also made my first pair of arm warmers. These ones were for my sister-in-law who lives in NYC, and I saw a pattern for arm warmers that laced up the side...I figured they would fit into big city fashion. The pattern is from Alterknits.
Lastly, a lot of the ladies in my life got bath salts. I made these for the first time and they are super easy. Fill a pint size mason jar with epsom salts (available at a drug store) and add about 20 drops of essential oils in any combination that suits your fancy. Mix well, wrap up and give!
Pin It Now!
I love all of Finn's snuggly pants and I love the colors in his hat!
