Christmas Crafts

I had a lot of fun this year working on Christmas projects. We usually put together a candy making CD to give to all of Dan's siblings and the cousins/aunts that participate in chocolate dipping every November.




I then try to coordinate the design of the CD with our candy tags.





Since we draw names in our families, it is tradition to give those in our family we didn't draw a small gift. This year while we were in France we found some beautiful and fragrant soaps at the local market in Nice which seemed perfect to use as gifts. So I bought muslin bags, stitched the red line across the top and stamped a wreath design in 2 different colors on each. I have to say, I was pretty pleased with how they turned out.
