Christmas In July

Photo Holders


Soooooooooo
It's "Christmas In July" for me and I've been busy MAKING Christmas gifts.

Why have I been making Christmas gifts?  I'm glad you asked.  I don't want to buy into the money making schemes of the all mighty dollar.  I don't want to shop to buy something, just for the sake of buying someone a Christmas gift.  I don't want to buy something, anything, just so someone does not get left out.

I think making a gift for someone that comes from the heart is worth more than what money can buy.  I want to think of that person, knowing  what they mean to me and make something special just for them.  It doesn't have to cost a lot.  It doesn't have to extravagant.  It just has to come from the heart.  I think that is what handmade/homemade gifts are all about.

Why am I making my gifts in July?  Another good question.  If I take time, one month out of the year, I can take my time in making the gift(s).  As the year draws nearer to Christmas, I do not have to rush to do something/anything and then end up buying something/anything.

This is one of the items I have made for someone(s) special.  I can show this because the person(s) getting it will not see this post.  Those who do see it are getting something else.

I have one more item to make, but I can't show you.  I can't show you anything else I've made either.  
Ssshhhh...
It's a surprise and cannot be revealed until Christmas.


So, maybe this has inspired you to have your own Christmas In July and start creating something for that special someone.
