Unique Gifts

Whew, I finally have some time to post now that the Home Expo is over. Thanks to all of you who visited our table. I had a lot of fun making things for the event. These events always push me to create new things and I always have so much fun when people actually want to buy my stuff! It's so cool! Now I have to make some more things to replace what I sold to give as gifts this Christmas. I'll show you one of my big sellers. It is a hot chocolate kit made out of Starbucks Frappachino bottles. I gave these to my kid's teachers last year for Christmas. This kit is made from TAC's new Christmas set "Simply Christmas".

Here is a single Frappachino bottle with mints. I give these to neighbors and people like the mailman and UPS guy. The tree is also from the "Simply Christmas" set. I just love that set!!! These are fun gifts and very easy to make! Try using TAC's gorgeous papers and stamps to alter something into a unique and thoughtful homemade gift!

Here is the photo I promised you of the candles I made with the "Ornamental Snowflakes" set. The border on top and bottom is from TAC's Hostess set "Partridge". I think they turned out cute. You probably can't see the Stickles on the flakes but they add a sparkle that really catches your eye. I know what you're thinking "Stickles AGAIN". There are Red Stickles on the reindeer's nose above and also on the Christmas tree. I can't help it! I like Stickles.

Remember, in November with any $20 order, when you buy 2 Stickles, you will get one free! See page 123 of the TAC Fall/Winter 2007 Idea Book and Catalog for your color choices or go to my TAC website under Products, Embellishments, then Other. Call or email me with your order to get the special.

Thanks for checking out my blog and have a blessed day!
