This year, I’ve decided to get creative
and have a go at making some Christmas presents and decorations. Over the past
few weeks, I have been planning what I’m going to do and I’m starting to get
everything I need ready and organised. In the past, I’ve left things too late
and its hard to get exactly what I need.
One of the things I love to do at
Christmas is a nice bit of festive baking and this year I’m very excited to
decorate lots of biscuits to give to my friends and family as they make great
presents. I’ve bought a collection of Christmas cookie cutters from a fabulous
seller on Ebay who has cutters for almost any occasion. If any of you are
interested, their ebay shop can be seen here. The cutters all come beautifully
individually wrapped in cute tissue paper.

There are so many ways in which you can
package and wrap these biscuits which I will show you in future posts,
including using lovely Christmas ribbons and cellophane and old jars/tins and
boxes.
Ebay is the perfect place to buy lots
of cheap ribbons and twines, wooden decorations, paints, felts, buttons and
fabrics to make some lovely handmade gifts and decorations so I fully recommend
taking a look and getting lots of inspiration!
Here is a little sneaky peak of some of
what I have bought over the past few weeks. I will be bringing you a series of
Handmade Christmas posts to hopefully inspire you to get creative this festive
season!
