Best DIY Gifts for Anyone
Hello again!! I just got a new laptop, so I can finally blog without everything taking 5 minutes to load!! Lol. I know this is late if you wanted it for Christmas gifts this year, but these will also be great gifts for birthdays or other occasions. This year for Christmas, I made a ‘catalog’ so my family could order what they wanted. Here is the link to that if you want to see more pictures of everything:
Copy of Wasa Christmas Catalog
I will put everything into sections by what you need to make it with: Cricut, Yarn, Painting/Drawing. The things in the ‘catalog’ are mainly Cricut things.
Cricut
Water Bottles/Mugs/Cups
These are very easy to make! Just cut out the design on vinyl and stick it on!
Coasters
These are also easy. I used wooden blocks and glued them together. Then, I ‘stained’ them with washable marker and water. Then I added the vinyl. I also cut out a piece of matching fabric and glued it to the back with mod podge.
Candles
These are easy, too! You can make the candles or buy them and add a label with sticker paper or vinyl.
Bookmarks
I bought the clear bookmarks from Amazon then added the vinyl.
T-Shirts
Cut out a design on HTV (Heat transfer vinyl) and iron it on. This was a little trickier getting the vinyl to stay down.
Yarn (I don’t have pics of these)
Crochet & Knitting:
Coasters
Cup Sleeves
Scarves
Painting/Drawing
A painting of your pet
Sorry the pic isn’t the best. But this is a really cute idea if you have a pet!
Paint/draw a Christmas tree
Food
Mint Meltaways
These are SO delicious! They taste very similar to Fanny May Mint Meltaways.
