I have finished all the wrapping and prepping, and now just waiting for Santa to come...
I have made up a few little gifts for a few people that I just wanted to give something small to..
Jams and Christmas cake in a gift box
Jam and soap gift box
A Secret Santa gift including a gift voucher, soaps, jams etc
Another secret santa gift including a cd, giftcard, wine, soaps and chilli jam
Boxed chiili jams
Boxed chilli jam and Onion Jam
A soap and chilli jam gift box
So, some nice gifts given from the heart, which won't cause clutter, and all handmade, other than the couple of gift cards and wine and cd in the secret santa gifts. The chilli jam was made from home grown chillies I have been growing and freezing throughout the year in preparation for making up a large batch for Christmas gifts. The christmas cakes I made in tuna cans to make up single serve cakes, and they are beautiful and moist this year, as I taste tested one today...yummy!!
So...Merry Christmas everyone...hope the day is a beautiful one....
Love the homemade gifts and I am sure they will really be appreciated.
