I am an awful gift giver. I admit it. #1 – I do not like to spend money. And #2 – If I am going to spend my heard earned money it needs to be on something practical. Not everyone likes practical gifts like I do apparently.

Pinterest Crafts for Christmas Gift Giving

Thus, I have always found that the greatest gifts were ones that I had spent time making myself. No other gifts can draw out the emotions that handmade gifts can and I do like making my family laugh or cry {happy tears} when it comes to opening presents!

Therefore, as I peruse Pinterest nowadays I am constantly on the lookout for great, easy, budget-friendly crafts I can attempt to make for Christmas. With only a month to go and a tight budget, I need to get working on some things!

Nevertheless, here are some wonderful crafts that I might attempt as I begin making my list and checking it twice! I cannot tell who I am thinking of though since some of my family and friends actually read the blog!

I’ve tried the wooden collage too! Love the inspiration I found while researching these ideas for you! Find more great ideas here:
