It’s one month until Christmas! it’s time to get shopping or get making! I put together a list of 20+ Handmade Gift Ideas from things I’ve shared on my blog over the past few years. Find a topic and get crafting people!
PS If you do happen to make something inspired by a Spotofteadesigns.com craft, I’d love to see it! I’m working on a “Reader’s Feature” post for 2015 and would love to see more submissions! Please contact me here.
