ALL of my gifts are now wrapped, ALL of them are handmade :-)
A quick last minute make:
Which used up the last few Christmas charm squares.
And a whole lot of these:
Little extras for the famalam. A while I don't think they're a scratch on Bakerella's version, they are pretty cute!
Especially the ones I made for my little niece and nephew :-)
How your weekends have been good and Christmassy too!
Ooh well done you for being all wrapped and all handmade - phew!Now - whatever is in those pretty jars? I have made a brownie mix before in a similar style but I think I see Smarties?..or is it Jelly Bellies?
ReplyDeleteLove the gift wrapping!
ReplyDeleteAnother Sheila here wondering what you have mixed up in those pretty jars :D
Huh, show off ;o) But as you're such a dab hand at wrapping, fancy popping up here to do mine? :oD
ReplyDeleteWell done you, I've got 2 commissions to finish before I even think about wrapping, ok I've been pinning wrapping ideas on pinterest but no more! What size jars have you used? Are they 1 litre?
ReplyDeleteGordon Bennet LJ! Did you sleep at all?! The pressies look amazing all wrapped up like that (Kirsty would be proud!). What is the scrummy concoction in the jars? Jxo
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! You are a rock star! Look at all of those fabulous presents and all hand made too? So impressive. Merry Christmas indeed!
ReplyDeleteLaura, WOW!!!! I love all your packaging. And all those handmade presents? You must have been running a real one-woman sweatshop over there. Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI am impressed!!
ReplyDeleteOh be gone with you!
ReplyDeleteam impressed... that's what it was like in my house last year :-)
ReplyDeletethe gifts took wonderful.. sigh.. one day i will make things look that spiffy ;)
ReplyDeleteoh and those cookie mixes- look a little shady. You should just send them to me so I can make sure nothing is wrong with them. just sayin'.
Wow! You've been a busy girl. I've only finished one handmade gift this year, and two others are in progress. One might not get done, but I'm okay with that! :)
ReplyDeleteLove the wrapping, the jars and really love that wee table runner! Might just have to copy you :)
ReplyDeleteOh yes...all my gifts are wrapped and equally as pretty as yours and all my gifts are also handmade..........when I close my eyes and dream! SERIOUSLY??? I wrapped a couple today because I have to take them to work with me tomorrow. And I did make 2 handmade gifts for the my daughter (an iPad case for her iPad she is getting) and a matching laptop case - they both match her book bag I made earlier in the year. Oh and I am working on Callee's quilt...there is hope (only a sliver but still hope). SERIOUSLY?? All handmade???
ReplyDeleteOh wow, things look nice there! I love your natural wrapping paper! I'm working on a new crochet pattern.. can't wait to share it.

ReplyDeleteAll handmade? Wow, you have been busy! Love the biscuit/cookie jars - yummy!
ReplyDeleteLaura this looks amazing!! All those presents, wow!! The wrapping looks great too. I think your jars look fantastic :)
ReplyDeleteThis is really amazing. I am feeling ashamed for not doing more for Xmas...
ReplyDeleteLove the jars! I don't have time to make these for Christmas this year but I think they would be great for Valentines with the pink and red m&m's! Thanks for all your wonderful ideas and inspiration!
ReplyDeleteYou are my hero...all gifts are wrapped and all gifts are handmade! You are a goddess!
ReplyDeleteOh.my.god! You are amazing! But to excuse myself I have moved house with 2 children, a dog a cat and 3 chickens in tow so I am allowed not to be as stupendious as you! Have pinned your wrapping as next years aim and am off to make a couple of last minitue cookie jars to fill out the megar looking handmade gift bags! Thanks Laura :-)
ReplyDeleteHey Laura, by the way do you mind sharing what size jars you used? I want it all to fit in snugly. I know my local tescos do some rather cheap kilner type jars and im off over there in a while....
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through maureen's blog. Love all you did here (very ambitious!) and your quilt in the post below is amazing! love!
ReplyDeleteALL handmade. That's amazing! Love the cookie jars.
