Crafty Christmas




In the tradition of every poor gift giver who has no real desire to spend money on people, I wracked my brain for a while trying to come up with something to make for my dad and his fiance for the holidays. Now, Rani loves candles, so I had originally intended to make some candles and candy, throw it all in a basket and call it golden, but I was soon astounded to discover that no one in this whole town sells candle making supplies. O.O I was starting to wonder if I would ever think of something when, as I was perusing the shelves of JoAnns, my mom solved all my problems for the entire gift giving hogwash. A little tweaking from me and I think I have a pretty amazing present to hand out: scrap calendars! At the moment all I have is the album and a good idea of what I want to do with each month, but as soon as I have a car again I'm going to go buy some pretty paper and embellishments. I can't wait! I'm so excited about it, and it's a wonderful way to jump into scrapbooking, I think. I'll post pictures when I get the chance (and have some worth posting).
