Holly Bloggy Christmas Crafts

I don't do very much crafting...probably because in school my art was never very good. I always excelled more at music and writing. I just started making jewelry this year, and in the past I've occasionally done a craft project or two. But I do want to try more stuff. I see so many tutorials out there, and I think to myself, "I can do that! It may not be as easy for me as they make it look, but still I think I could possibly do this!"

So one of my goals next year is to try some of these projects, or at least start small: try one or two and get really good at them. Then that should make it easier for me to learn more things in the future. Heidi from Blue Eyed Blessings hosted a fabulous craft party for us last week. Today I'm featuring just a few of the projects that were submitted to the event. I know you guys will love these! And after you check these out, be sure to go over to Heidi's blog and check out all the other wonderful ideas! It may be too late to make some of these. Although if you're needing a last minute gift, several of these are actually projects that you can do fairly quickly. And if all else fails, you'll get some fabulous ideas to bookmark for next year.
