Revisiting 2007 Holiday Projects
Planning to be with family this week so I will be posting someround-ups, revisiting older topics, and eating lots and lots of stuffing.
To start the week off, here's a list of holiday projects I posted last year (and a couple from previous years). Click the links to access the posts and more information about each project.
Advent boxes. Looking forward to putting these up later this week. For information go here and here.
Night Before Christmas ATC Spinner(this is smaller than the Family Gratitude Photo Spinner). For more information go here and here. I didn't ever get the chance to get this one finished last year so I am planning to finish it up this December.
Button Trees. For information go here.
Initial Ornaments. For more information go here.
Holiday Bottle Cap Magnets. Bottle Caps are from Maya Road and can be found online here. For more information on the project go here (some of the links to stores are now broken - this is a project from 2006).
Holiday Collage. For more information go here. And another post on framing favorite holiday stuff can be found here.

THANK YOU ALI!!! You gave me 3 awesome ideas for handmade gifts for my mother and sisters. My husband is in real estate appraisals and thus, the current economy is encouraging us to tighten our belt and hunker down for what could happen with the economy. I am really trying to spend less and give more thoughtfully this year. My sisters and Mom love when I make things by hand and I did make your knock-off of the Christmas collage (the butterflies??? I made one with hearts for our basement wall.) I know that the monogrammed ornaments, the button trees and the Christmas collage will not only be a BIG hit but they will also be really fun to make and those projects are sure to get me in a cheery Christmas spirit! You are really a life saver, thanks again!

Ali,
Last year your advent boxes inspired me to try the same thing at home in the boarding house that my husband and I run. My own three children and all of our boarders loved it. We opened the boxes first thing in the morning and it was great to see all the children gather round, with smiling faces waiting to see what the treat would be for the day. It was a lovely way to get ourselves into the Christmas spirit. I have my boxes ready to be put up again next week. Thank you for the inspiration that you provide for projects like this one. I'm sure that you touch more lives than you know.
