I can't believe Christmas is in one week! December seems to just have flown by, and although I've got most of my shopping and crafting completed, there's a few things left on my to-do list, not to mention baking, wrapping... oh my!
In any case, this has been a crafty holiday season for me, in part because of Pinterest. My love of Pinterest knows no bounds and is both a blessing and a curse, but at this time of year definitely a blessing for all the fantastic ideas and inspiration it provides!
While I can't post any of my finished products yet (I don't want to give wandering eyes of family and friends who may read this the scoop on their gifts!) I can share some of the giving and crafting ideas that motivated me this season. Don't worry, a full report of my crafting adventures (and mishaps) will appear here as soon as wrappings have been cleared away and gifts have been handed out! So here are a few of my favorites, check out more by following me on Pinterest! 
I love to personalize things, especially gifts. These chalkboard mugs seemed like a great way to do just that, and encourage the recipients creative juices to flow - they can mark it up however they like! Michael's carries the Martha Stewart line, which has a good non-toxic chalkboard paint.
I also love a little glitter, and holidays are the perfect excuse to glitter things up in my opinion! These sparkly votives are super easy to make, and you just might find some fun ways to add your own flare as you start experimenting, like I did, but more on that to come!
I hope these have provided some inspiration for some of you in need of a little divine intervention on gift giving ideas. And, if all else fails, just remember .....
