XMAS DIY ideas
1. Make your own wrapping paper / fabric - a. Buy cheap fabric and dye it with tea or ink b. Buy sketch pad paper in an art store, the cost is about $1-2 dollars for a pad. The undid natural colour paper is the cheapest one and has a beautiful organic look to it. *Instead of lace & ribbon use thread - the heavy duty one which is usually used for moving and old style parcels

3. Stamps - You can use these stamps for cards, tags, wrapping paper, and any paper related decor that comes to mind. Go to a craft store, buy a piece of lino and a carving tool. Or use cardboard, scissors and a needle. Remember that your stamp image is supposed to be an inverse “Negative” version of what you want.

4. Wreaths - Either a huge wreath for your door or a mini wrath as a centrepiece or a christmas tree toy they are easy and fun to make with plenty of material to keep in mind - drained empty egg shells, fake plants, paper, discarded wood, felt, cardboard etc.
