DIY holiday prezzies

Happy SNOW DAY to all! It's a beautiful, snowy day here in Oklahoma. 

As I mentioned in my december "joy" list post, I'm planning to make Christmas prezzies for my friends and family. While I love to bake, I wanted to do something a little more special...I'm very excited! Whether it's completely homemade.. or a simple addition to an item, it will be heartfelt and personal. 

My original thought was to make sugar scrub, complete with a cute jar and sparkly spoon. Here's where this idea stemmed from:

Hey Gorgeous! made a simple and yummy body scrub, spending about $6 per container!

For the sparkly spoon (to scoop the body scrub), I wanted to recreate these adorable little spoons (via something turquoise). You can find these spoons at any craft store for cheap, cheap, cheap!

Another adorable idea... 

attach this printable to a nail polish or foot scrub, and voila! An easy, inexpensive, and cute gift. 

I made this on the Rhonna Design iPad app, love it! 

This idea is courtesy of the original crafty girl, Martha Stewart. Fabric-covered notebooks!

It's really simple to make these little notebooks. Spray the notebook with adhesive glue, firmly press the fabric, and cut the access fabric around the edges. I love that you can make this gift super personal by the selection of fabric, as well as adding a little note inside for the recipient.

good luck with your DIY prezzies and stay warm!
